The Eroding Character Of The American People

by Paul Craig Roberts

The question is: why do Americans not only sit silently while the lives of innocents are destroyed, but also actually support the destruction of the lives of innocents? Why do Americans believe “official sources” despite the proven fact that “official sources” lie repeatedly and never tell the truth?

The only conclusion that one can come to is that the American people have failed. We have failed Justice. We have failed Mercy. We have failed the US Constitution. We have failed Truth. We have failed Democracy and representative government. We have failed ourselves and humanity. We have failed the confidence that our Founding Fathers put in us. We have failed God. If we ever had the character that we are told we had, we have obviously lost it. Little, if anything, remains of the “American character.”

Was the American character present in the torture prisons of Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo Bay, and hidden CIA torture dungeons where US military and CIA personnel provided photographic evidence of their delight in torturing and abusing prisoners? Official reports have concluded that along with torture went rape, sodomy, and murder. All of this was presided over by American psychologists with Ph.D. degrees.

We see the same inhumanity in the American police who respond to women children, the elderly, the physically and mentally handicapped, with gratuitous violence. For no reason whatsoever, police murder, taser, beat, and abuse US citizens. Every day there are more reports, and despite the reports the violence goes on and on and on. Clearly, the police enjoy inflicting pain and death on citizens whom the police are supposed to serve and protect. There have always been bullies in the police force, but the wanton police violence of our time indicates a complete collapse of the American character.

American character or American morality. Our politicians and media have had great success in eroding the morality of the people. They know that the end result of immorality is the destruction of the republic. When the average person is more familiar with television personalities than the people who have enslaved us, questions like the article must be asked.

Step 1 as outlined in the above article:

Americans need to face the facts. The loss of character means the loss of liberty and the transformation of government into a criminal enterprise.

Step 2:

Look in the mirror and decide what kind of man or woman you want to be. If you want to be on the right side of the upcoming war, go to step 3. If not:

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”

Step 3:

Develop Sacred honor. Everything else will naturally follow.

David DeGerolamo

Our Country has been invaded by demons and these demons have entered into many of our people and Government officials and that is why we are witnessing at super fast speed the filth and degeneracy of our nation. if the people and our leaders continue on this road of inhuman filth and perversion they will go straight to hell where they rightfully all belong. None of this will end until the nation beginning with our leaders get on there hands and knees and ask God for forgiveness of there grievous sins and then the people will follow, just as in Nineveh, it began with the King and then the people.
