Be afraid…be very afraid…That is the message being transmitted to the residents of the United States of America.<\/p>\n

Since September 11, 2001 people living in the U. S. of A. have been living in\u00a0a state of constant fear. For those old enough to remember, for those who were alive, this current period is\u00a0in some ways reminiscent\u00a0of the 1950s when fear was in vogue. Fear of communists, the Red Scare; fear of Negroes, the Black Scare. (Sadly fear of Negroes,\u00a0 coloreds or blacks continues in our society.)<\/p>\n

The government, with the support of the mainstream media, has fostered a culture of fear. We believe it is to control the masses, when and if they ever decide to protest the abuses they suffer at the hands of the militarized police, restaurants and food outlets; corporate employers, banksters, educational institutions, state and local government agencies. Whatever institution citizens of the U.S. must interact with daily there is abuse and disrespect, manipulation of the bad kind, thus more fear, more dread, the existing apprehension is augmented to guarantee further compliance.<\/p>\n

As a public service YouThinkWhat provides a list of people,\u00a0 items and situations the average U.S. citizen fears…<\/p>\n

Our list begins with Arabs, or anyone of Middle Eastern ethnicity. Since September 11th 2001, anyone of Middle Eastern heritage, (except Christiane Amanpour who works for CNN, and is perceived by the public as being aight), is suspect for committing terrorist acts.<\/p>\n

Any person of swarthy, brown skinned complexion with or without the traditional keffiyeh headdress is to be feared. This description includes homegrown Black Americans of African, or Hispanic descent. (The darker they are the more trepidation expressed.)<\/p>\n

Muslims are next on the list of people feared by those living in the U.S. of A. Muslims and any aspect related to Islam…in fact the words, “Muslim” and “Islam” strike fear and loathing in the hearts of many red blooded all Americans. Even some black people in the United States are afraid of anything associated with Muslims…mosques, Korans, prayer five times daily, ethnic clothing; any and all of these items cause the condition of being afraid!<\/p>\n

Envelopes received in the mail laced with white powder are dangerous. Never mind the powder may be harmless talc and not anthrax\u00a0 at all. Remember all those envelopes received in the mail following the disaster in New York City in September 2001.? (We refer to 9\/11 as the modern day false flag incident which killed more than 3,000 people.)\u00a0Soon after there were those horrendous shootings in the DeeCee Metro area found to be perpetrated by two guys in a very old car; one of them was installed in the trunk of the vehicle to shoot through a hole in the trunk lid. Really? Another incident of instilling fear, causing people to be afraid when there is no justification for the dread.<\/p>\n

Shoes are an item so dangerous, the Transportation Security Administration, (TSA), requires passengers, for domestic as well as international flights, to remove theirs before being approved to board the aircraft. This requirement comes\u00a0 following the attempt by then 28 year-old Richard Colvin Reid, a British citizen, aka The Shoe Bomber, to interrupt an American Airlines international flight from Paris to Miami by lighting his shoes which are said to have contained plastic explosives. (??) Is the American public so gullible as to believe terrorists from the Middle East are so primitive as to detonate their shoes filled with plastic explosives with the old school match or Bic lighter? Who’s the provincial in this picture?<\/strong><\/p>\n

And if that scenario isn’t ridiculous enough for you, dear reader, consider on December 25, 2009, nearly eight years to the day of the unsuccessful attack by the so-called Shoe Bomber, there was another attempted copy-cat attack on a Northwest Airlines international flight from Amsterdam to Detroit by a Nigerian man.\u00a0 Not exactly a copy-cat attack in that 23 year-old Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was attempting to ignite a bomb concealed in his underwear. That is why we’re not surprised to find X-ray machines have been installed at airports by the TSA to insure the flying public isn’t wearing\u00a0 exploding drawers, able to be detonated by remote control. As an enhancement to the X-ray, cop-a-feel security, touchy feely, pat down,\u00a0 (a real invasion of personal privacy), is performed to insure travelers have nothing harmful hidden from the X-ray machine.<\/p>\n

Speaking of detonating items: Liquids, from water to shampoo, to body lotions to expensive fragrances, to creams of four ounces or more are extremely dangerous. Such items are not permitted on airplanes. They are confiscated by the TSA officials who promptly sell them off to local governments for auctioning to the consumer public<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Those living in the U.S. are afraid of anyone,\u00a0even a white person, who is wearing a hoodie…think rapper Eminem,\u00a0 Marshal Mathers. This fear became even more prevalent following the February 2012 murder in\u00a0 Sanford, Florida, of Trayvon Martin; Martin, a black teenager armed with Skittles, a brand of candy, and a can of ice tea, was fatally wounded by a wanna-be copper who is scheduled to stand trial for second degree murder.<\/p>\n

The warning about this kind of garment came from Geraldo Rivera, a well known Hispanic American media personality. The warning about those who wear the otherwise harmless hoodie goes hand in hand with and intensifies\u00a0the warning to be afraid of black men…regardless of age…black men are to be feared…even the President of the United States, Barack Obama, and his administration’s Attorney General of the United States, Eric Holder.<\/p>\n
