Note from the Editor:

Fugitive is a term that basically means one who is running from the law.  It sounds bad, but we must remember that laws have, throughout history, been drafted, passed, and enforced by very evil people, even criminals breaking their own laws.  Runaway slaves were fugitives.  Jews and members of other unapproved belief-systems were fugitives.  The people today who are fugitives aren’t likely to be any worse, if bad or criminal at all.

When I left Texas, it was after choosing to disregard the criminal demands of the corrupt authorities there, which, in their backward and self-centered view, made me a fugitive.  They went looking for me, trying to pressure people into giving up my location, but I’d made sure no one knew, knowing that harassment and their other crimes were coming, for they had always come, no matter how much I’d followed the endless rules of their state-sanctioned robbery-based system.  Someone else ended up paying them off, but for a good long while… they had illegally classified me as a fugitive.

Refugee or escapee is the correct term; I was fleeing persecution, harassment, and worse.  I was secretly relocating to save my health, my sanity, and my life.  I had no way to afford what they were demanding of me, and no one to turn to if I wanted it paid off.  I couldn’t live with myself, or sleep well at night, if I gave into their corrupt orders and abusive taxation, which would have funded still more abuses on their part –of me and many other people living back there.

Having served so faithfully, seen so many heroes lose life and limb, and gone through so much abuse already, it was more than a little rough living through the very people I’d done all that for… turning on me that much… just to make a few bucks.  They had ignored my testimony and amazing record.  All they had cared about was labeling and fining me into oblivion, and I’m guessing they’d been getting away with that for all their years, ruining countless other great citizens.

So I was a fugitive for a while, and damn proud of it.  It felt like volunteering for Boot Camp all over again; it was a tough call, and I knew I’d be getting myself into some challenges, but it made me brave and defiant as hell, and a true Washingtonian the Founding Fathers would have admired.  I’d go on to only accept the company of fellow fugitives in the future, for they are the some of the bravest and wisest pioneers and peacekeepers of all.

Poking Fun at Fake News:

Another sad example of how larger organizations are posting the fake news that smaller organizations were posting fake news; this is part of an ongoing smear-campaign against ALL healthy, natural, weight-stabilizing produce and products.  (Sometimes they even make up claims (no one ever actually tried to sell things with), crimes, cases, and court rulings for this end/purpose.)  Anytime something heals people, they pretend it is pseudo-science and false-advertising, they sue and shut down anyone educating people about it, and the consumers shift their purchases back in the direction of the pre-established / giant firms.

If a federal organization claims something is/was fake, that itself is fake; nothing the federal government (of ANY nation) has reported on (including all the history taught in schools) was anything BUT fake.  Furthermore, each person has the ability to sense what is true and what is fake, if only they clear their bodies, thereby also clearing their minds.  In other words, we should never accept the brainwashing that strangers in power know what is best for us, or are the only experts able to determine what is true and what is false.
