Anti-Establishment-Sanctuary

Occupytea party

You might believe that “Occupy Wall Street” and “The Tea Party” have nothing in common but they both are grassroots anti-establishment movements that should have a spot in the public square. When people with unique perspectives on the world don’t have an avenue to express those points of view we all lose out because a good idea can come from anyone.  We also know when you shut off open discourse then those who’s voices are being shut might attempt violence actions to get their point across.  Therefore  I believe it’s essential to have a location in all states where people with minority view points can share their philosophy in a peaceful way with fellow citizens.  These sanctuaries would also include avant garde art forms, independent business ventures, unconventional foods and faiths that aren’t normally represented in the public square.

(1) The state or locality would donate a space where those who feel disenfranchised could have either a storefront or booth to discuss their point of view and/or sell merchandise promoting that view point.  Each spot would be of equal size and location would be picked on a lottery type system.

(2) After an election cycle those of the losing parties would be in charge of who is allowed to be part of this community with equally footing for various points of view.  Their would be a token fee for the booths

(3) All participants in this sanctuary must not be involved in fomenting any violence against any other individual in this sanctuary or the community at large  and also must form a neighborhood watch to insure all points of view are freely and peacefully discussed.

 

Why a New Yorker loves country

hot country girl 2   Hot county

I’ve been born and raised in NY but I still can’t get the country out of my heart and I love it.  As a young man I was raised to rock and roll and disdain  country which was  easy until Garth Brooks taught me to twang and you’all with a bit of guitar riff.  Don’t get me wrong I still luv Rock and Roll and a full range of various other genre’s of music but country touches my heart in a way other forms of music haven’t been able.  Here are just a few reasons this boy from NY is a still a country fan.

(1) Great Lyrics- The poetic nature of the music tells stories that other forms of music are in most cases lacking these days.

(2) Real Instruments- Much of today’s music is too electronic and therefore looses it’s authenticity but country still has real guitars, drums and of course the fiddle.

(3) Loyalty- Individual artist and groups have loyal fans that enable these artists to continue performing much longer then artists in other genre’s. This enables an artist to experiment with various songs without worrying that one miss will destroy their career.

(4) Clean Fun- Country artist generally don’t try to push the envelope into the garbage to sell a record but instead rely on the raw talent of the artist to succeed.  Most of this music can be heard by the entire family without having to switch stations in between a song.
