People are Funny Creatures…

Have you ever had the distinct notion that people really do not know what they want or even what they are looking for? I believe this to be true because you can find someone who states that they want a solution to something. You offer them the perfect solution and yet they are not interested.

Next, you see this person get something that you know for sure is not going to help them solve the problem they stated to you. It is really interesting.

You try to help someone and they turn down that help and go in a direction that you know will not help them. Some people have to learn the hard way, I guess. In fact, it seems that most people have to learn the hard way.

It is also insulting when people don’t trust you enough to take your advice. But, that is life. Everyone, is living in a world of confusion. If they knew the perfect answer for themselves, they wouldn’t be looking for any answers.

This shows how incredibly ignorant human kind is. I am not singling anyone out here. I am including myself. So do not think that I am talking directly to you. I really mean all of us that are human.

Take the topic of gum disease for example. It is an important problem that many people have. Yet, most people are not aware that they even have gum disease. They will not believe you even if you tell them.

However, the statistics that dental care professionals share with us indicate that up to 80% of people have gum disease right now. You can talk to people until you are blue in the face about this problem, but they still won’t believe they have it or that they should do anything about it.

It is kind of like bad breath. Many people have it, but they don’t seem to realize that they have it. They get use to their own breath.

We live in a strange world.

Am I Being Targeted? If so, Should I Worry About it?

Just to give you a little background: About 7 years ago, I went to Beijing’s Tiananmen Square to protest the human rights violations against the peaceful Falun Gong – who are being persecuted brutally by the Chinese Communist Party.

They said they weren’t arresting us – there were about 70 of us from various western countries. But, they held us against our will. Some were beaten. They told us that they would not allow us to talk to our embassies – which is a violation of International Law. So, it sure felt like being arrested. But on the other hand, what they did was illegal because their is nothing in the Chinese Constitution that says you can’t protest human rights violations.

But this is how the Chinese Communist Party Rolls.

So anyway, I have occasionally twittered out the address: http://ninecommentaries.com on twitter.

Well today, I get a phone call from a strange sounding Chinese guy who says he is from the State of Kansas, where I live. What was strange is that his number showed up as 000-000-0000 on my cell phone.

He sounded like he was from some government office and wanted to verify the address of my business. I did so.

I thought he was an official from Kansas, but then I saw the number.

I asked him who he was and he pretended that he couldn’t hear me, “sir”, “sir” he said – and then the phone went dead.

Well, I’m no stranger to this kind of thing. In fact, most Falun Gong practitioners that have been active against the persecution get calls like this.

First, my statement to the Chinese agents who will inevitably read this: Your time will not last. Your crimes are being recorded and when the time comes you will be tried in International Courts just like the Nazis were.

You think you are documenting us, but we are documenting you and your criminal activities. So, I guess your best bet is to quit the CCP and go back to a normal life and hope that you are not remembered when the time comes to start prosecuting the Communist party members one by one….

Now that I got that off my chest. My question to the others who read this is: What do you think I should do about today’s event and how do you feel about what happened? How do you feel about communist agents harassing people outside of their own borders or within their own borders for that matter: you can read about their crimes at http://faluninfo.net

When will China become free?

It is a very interesting thing when you talk about freedom in China.  You have leading liberal thinkers in China calling for an end to the many injustices and human rights violations that occur under the current communist regime.  One has only to visit ninecommentaries.com a read just a little bit of the commentaries to realize that there are real problems in China that must be dealt with. 

This is the most populous nation in the world and it is having these terrible injustices where innocent and even very productive members of society are being tortured and beaten for something as simple as saying ‘democracy is good’ or Falun Dafa is good ( a peaceful meditation group that strives to be and do good). 

When you have such a destructive system of government, what can you do to change it?  There has to be a way. What do you think?

Follow Me on Twitter….

megaphoneI have two announcements to make right now.

One is that you can now follow me on Twitter.

My twitter address is:

http://twitter.com/davesnape

The second item I want to tell you about is that I wrote a little bit about why my book, What You Should Know about Gum Disease is important – and it is important. It’s importance goes far beyond the superficial notion of gum disease itself.

This is a book that touches on our human existence and on issues that are close to our very souls – whether we understand that or not….

Here is the address to the post:

http://tobeinformed.com/633/ This is important so please do feel free to leave a little note there.
