Ever since I’ve been associated with this site I’ve been blessed with becoming in tune with members here that are driven, people that don’t take no for an answer. When I first started talking with Henry, he opened my eyes to a world that basically is anything you want it to be, but you’re going to have to fight to get it. Why fight you ask? Because everything that was supposed to be has been stolen from us.
I already knew this in the back of my mind, but communicating with somebody who is driven, really awakened me big time. I was basically sitting in a hotel room, just fired from a job and collecting unemployment. Really feeling sorry for myself. On my laptop searching for people to communicate with, to do nothing more than to just communicate with a strong disposition.
Somebody with a purpose in life, and in communicating with Henry, my world just started to fall back into place, big time. I already knew things were bad, but after reading Henry’s work on another web site that we both were on, the light bulb suddenly lit up.
What better purpose in life than to fight to reinstate our Bill of Rights!
What I’m trying to say to all you guys is everyone of you are intelligent as hell, after being associated with you all for these years it’s become a challenge to keep up with you guys intelligently. Jesus, it’s been a lot of fun to try and keep up!
An important thing to remember, and I’m sure I don’t really have to tell all of you this, but I’m going to say it anyway. It’s important to relay our message intelligently to others who might not understand or have a clue how the Bill of Rights came about, and how if followed as intended, our lives will dramatically change, just by following the original articles.
Because once this sets in to the person’s brain, there is no way they can find fault with what you’re trying to explain, right? The Bill of Rights is so damn fair to all, that it’s simply indisputable.
Common law, natural resources that belong to everyone of us, land for all who are American National, fossil fuels that were supposed to be given to us all for pennies on the dollar, etc. etc.
Sure, having to work to make a damn living, but never supposed to pay huge unlawful taxes and stuck with burdens that make it impossible to have a happy life.
So I won’t bore you with everything you all already know, it’s been hashed out for ten years now. But, it’s important to communicate intelligently to others so it becomes obvious, because FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION.
We can’t just say these things to each other on this site, we must communicate this to everybody we come in contact with if we are to achieve good success.
Henry talks about meeting lots of people and talking with them, and if you know Henry, you know that in his mind that communicating to this person means that FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!
I just wanted to make this a strong point, because we can’t be weak or embarrassed or scared to explain our position with others. Its damned important we be strong as hell, positive in every word spoken to get this message out. Make your point quick without hesitation and move on. You’ll know real quick if you’ve made progress, because they will start asking questions.
Study the Bill of Rights, know the Articles like they were the amount of money in your wallet. Stay frosty and tight you guys, you’re all smart as hell.
Well said, Brother. <3
ditto that !
Leaving the Matrix
Simply put, the system America operates in is corrupt. To borrow from a Josh Garrel’s song, we’ve been “born into a system constructed for failure.” We are slaves to a corporate entity run by thieves and criminals of both sophisticated and carnal natures. The U.S. Constitution has been hijacked for the purposes of greed, control and idolatry………

“The U.S. Constitution has been hijacked for the purposes of greed, control and idolatry………”
Understand this… the U.S. Constitution was a piece of filth written BY the elite, FOR the elite.
Had the Bill of Rights NOT been written, and inserted as the first 10 ARTICLES of the FIRST AMENDMENT to the Constitution, every last person involved in writing and approving that wretched rag would have been HUNG FOR TREASON.
Know thy enemy.

Hatr, thanks for this reminder and putting in the comment section.
And thank you for that, Katie (sorry, no direct reply button).
That is who I’ve always been (since waking up)… but only to our enemies.
It’s what they’ve created with their madness.
Thx Angel and Mary
Your both awesome
And you’re smart too Mark! Thanks for the encouraging words.
Thx Katie, and thank you for all your awesome support for all these years

Well said, Mark. Defeatism is a killer. It helps to kill your own efforts and possibility of victory because the fight will only go as far as your mind can be carried by your body.
Thank you Sir
Not an option is right–especially by educating the youth, millennials, Gen Z as they are called (because it isn’t about generations or race or religion or politics….when it comes to us vs. them, failure is definitely not an option.)
Darn truck drivers, you got too much time to be thinking about stuff, you wen gone and get smart…Nahh, I am an ex-Truck guy too, used to love the long drives to LA, lots of soul searching when your on the road.
My (Very educated niece) just brought up a video she saw on YT about 911 and asked about it…Boy did she get an earful, and now she wants to meet and get edumacated on reality… I hope to have her tuning in to Henry soon…
You know it buddy, this is pretty much what I do when anyone starts saying anything about stuff….
Mostly I first give them a copy of Henry’s (Mary’s) Bill of Rights CD…then have “Discussions about more stuff”, Like,
How am I obligated to live under or follow what another person or person’s version of freedom is for me? and they just go, Huh? and then I tell them, that voting is exactly just that.
Gets them started thinking about the core of who gets to tell you what to do…etc.
Norm your awesome man..
Thanks Mark, for the encouragement; it goes a long way. And thanks also, for your steadfastness in the fight. Been readin’ you for many years and want you to know I’ve learned much from you. You speak with clarity and straightforwardness and are profoundly supportive.
Sometimes it’s hard to understand this whole Trench thing and how this aging flower-child ended up here. It’s like a MIRACLE. I guess it was the notion of FULLY owning my own life – that really did the trick. Then Henry and Laura pointing the way through The Bill of Rights, day-after-day, story-after-story, ups and downs, but always continuing toward freedom. And it was also all the worker bees that buzz through here with smart perspectives, often debilitating humor, and big doses of wisdom
The Trench: Awesome, sometimes scary, daunting, exhilarating, tiresome, energizing, wonderful, trying, frustrating, challenging, kind, ill-tempered, welcoming, dignified, crass, sweet, outrageous, occasionally hostile (strong people fight now and then – ha!!), educational, inspiring, necessary, and important. Stay, go, come back, stay, run-away, return, stay, flee (pun intended), hide, settle in, and do what can. Jus’ some of the things I experience in The Trench. Crazy, but glad to be here.

‘Sometimes it’s hard to understand this whole Trench thing and how this aging flower-child ended up here.’………… I think it has something to do with ‘Truth magnetism’ 🙂
Your welcome Galen and thank you for all these years
It’s an emotional time, thanks Mark, for your strength, and keep healthy Trenchers….
Brothers and sisters in arms!!
Your welcome Bob M

SHAZAM !!!
Impressive! I hope he’s this skilled with weapons because he’s going to need to be.
Damn strong kid, he had better take care of that good arm. It’s only tissue and bone, not steel.
His shoulder too. I’m sure people are telling him this.
“Henry talks about meeting lots of people and talking with them,…”
Henry is blessed with the ‘gift of gab’, it is one of his fortes.
I’m blessed with the gift of being able to ascertain the truth of most matters (no one gets it right 100 percent of the time), but after years of blank stares & rolling eyes, I eventually lost most of my tolerance for disbelief, especially when I tell people that I can prove what I say. Most aren’t interested in the proof (or the truth, for that matter), so I don’t press folks over it anymore like I used to. However, I do occasionally come across some who would make good posters here, but it seems that most are content to keep their knowledge to themselves, which I think is a travesty.
It’s just not in my nature to ignore evil, to not expose it, or to keep the truth to myself… it belongs to ALL.
Henry is blessed with the ‘gift of gab’, it is one of his fortes.
I’m not gabbin’, I’m asserting the absolute truth. You name one time it has ever been anything but.
Don’t come off arrogant with me, I’ve forgotten more than you will ever know.
I took your first line as insult, I’m not playing f-king games here, and I will be judged by no one unless they have the moxy to come up and argue point on point on anything with me. So find some of those mother f-kers who are so goddamn smart and get their cowardly asses to work so I can f-king rest.
I never took anything you ever said was gabbing. LMAO laying it out so the point was well understood, yes. Gabbing, no way… 🙂
That is very old school, Henry, and it was obviously before your time… SINCE IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN MEANT AS A COMPLIMENT… NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS.
You might have asked first, before jumping to conclusions.
Sorry I said anything at all… I’ll just shut the f$&k up.
It wasn’t the gift of gab, it was calling it a forte.
I’m an expert at word structure, grammar, and interpretation of the written word.
Everyone on this site is exceptional, each in their individual way. I am no more exceptional than anybody else and never put forth the notion that I am.
I just tell the truth in a plain way as to not stifle anyone’s thoughts, as what I find here is that I learn every bit as much as I teach.
I told you that I took it as an offense. I don’t like pigeon holes, as I live in the universe, right along with everyone else. It is just an intermingling of minds and sometimes a conflict of minds. I am so glad that I don’t know everything, as it is a joy to learn something new.
Sorry if it upset you, but then you know that that’s just the way I am, and I’m going to speak my mind, and I don’t care who likes it.
Oh, wait a minute, that is what you keep saying. Can I do it too?
My apology, Henry… that was totally incorrect usage of that word (but it was inadvertently used, not to intentionally insult you in any way).
I looked it up to make certain of it’s meaning, and it turns out that the use of plurality was in error… it cannot exist for that word, as one can only have a single forte, not multiples, as I had mistakenly thought. You see, I’ve come across that word used erroneously in print in the past, in such as “His (or her) greatest forte was this or that…”, so I’ve always assumed that a person could have more than one forte… being ‘lessers’ & ‘greaters’. Obviously, the word was misused in those particular cases (interestingly enough, there is more than one [unrelated] meaning for forte)…
“noun
1a person’s strong suit, or most highly developed characteristic, talent, or skill; something that one excels in:
I don’t know what her forte is, but it’s not music.
2the stronger part of a sword blade, between the middle and the hilt (opposed to foible).”
As for ‘the gift of gab’, that was in direct reference to what you yourself stated to mary in a reply a few days ago…

Not me. I see nothing but decent caring friends and the people I talk to listen. The trick is come in the back door instead of trying to crash through the front. That way they think they figured it out while they were having a conversation with you. Let it look like an accident with your eyes all agape as they believe they just taught you something important.
Not to sound special or anything, but I’ve always found how you get into a conversation is by suggesting things to people that they already know and pretending confusion yourself. People naturally want to help you and you let them help you by throwing in the right phrases at the right moment.
Our young people are smart in their way, but we old people are cunning in our way. ”
What you just described there IS ‘the gift of gab’… the ability to put people at ease and get them to open up in conversations. Not all of us have that ability, Henry, and it IS a gift.
I’m sorry for any confusion caused, but know this… I NEVER try to intentionally piss you off, that is counterproductive and contrary to my nature. I DO, however, tend to piss people off UNINTENTIONALLY from time to time, and that definitely IS part of my nature.
What I generally resort to when I question someone’s motives is to simply ask: “Define… this or that, whatever word or part of the statement is in question.
That said, have a good day, brother. 🙂
Psychology and procedure I can accept as ‘the gift of gab’ in its most honed sense.
Other than that, forget it, I already have.
And you have a nice day.
