123. The Growing Abuse of Power

OR - How Abuse Trumps Justice.

Within the reality of our now global village, the integration of the human race may be leading to a no-colour specific species. Recently a comic referred to a 'white' man in his audience as a threatened species. If we can hold out long enough, this would at least eliminate colour based discrimination.

However, discrimination is basic to Nature.
==========================================================
 discriminate |disˈkriməˌnāt|
verb [ intrans. ]1 recognize a distinction; differentiate : babies can discriminate between different facialexpressions of emotion. See note at distinguish .• [ trans. ] perceive or constitute the difference in or between : bats can discriminate a difference in echo delay of between 69 and 98 millionths of a second | features that discriminatethis species from other gastropods.2 make an unjust or prejudicial distinction in the treatment of different categories of people or things, esp. on the grounds of race, sex, or age : existing employment policiesdiscriminate against women.==========================================All has bearing on the natural elements of survival, survival of the fittest.Who is in your camp, to help, when you really need it? 

So it would seem 'natural' if:
- You are a stranger (domiciled in a disparate jurisdiction);
- You are a senior, no longer in the workforce (thus more 'naturally' dispensable);
- You are living within a finite, basic financial structure (i.e. limited compensation available);
- You are vociferously voicing your displeasure with the status quo;
- You publicly question the behaviour of officials in charge; 

- You should expect negative response to your actions by those you challenge; 
- You should be prepared to hold your own, if you intend to 'argue' your stance;
- You should be able to define and express the hypocrisy by which the system bamboozles you;
- You should be able to defend your beliefs - for the sake of your children - as long as you are able. 

We are living in a rapidly changing, troubled world; 
We are in a downward spiral towards complete chaos, and ruination of our planet; 
We are - by nature - no longer 'Good' (if ever we were, as suggested by our various religions);  

We are now a run-away species, fouling our own backyards, and those of others.  
We have NO TIME LEFT to re-interpret our objectives. 

WHAT will it be? 
- Rules over posturing?
- Harmony over mayhem?
- Clear conscience over greed? 
- A path back to equilibrium among those species remaining;
or a rapid decline in to total destruction? 

This Planet has seen it all; it will continue to allow life somewhere. 
Individually, we all have to make a choice.
