I want to start a new type of media for my art work. Yes of all the other things that I can do Art is another one. I just started listing my wife’s art work on craigs list under “arts and craft”. I have attempted twice to put a photo of these hand carved stage coaches with carved driver and draft horses in full harnesses, with hand carved people inside the coach, but help is needed. I have a friend that will do it for me when he gets a chance? The new media is rock carving. I have always dreamed of carving in stone. It is just something different, as this letter brings another chapter in a world that just does not make since to me. I have written two books that were published, completely wired new and old houses for friends, built houses, operate heavy equipment and many more. The problem is the ability to remember what I am doing as I do it. I drive big rigs but once on a trip hauling fill for a septic I forgot and drove to down east Maine and it took two days for me to realize it. The ability to with stand the pain from my service injuries as doing the tasks and after completed. I am not stupid, there are obstacles in my path consisting of a brain injury, broken back and loss of hearing in both ears. All are service related that the military rated at 100% disabled, including the new one PTSD. Yet the VA stopped my medical care and charges me to get medication and for medical care that they now order, since the VA is using my health as a weapon to stop my opinion letters.
I volunteer every day since I came back in 74 from the big one “Vietnam Conflict”. I have not violated the law, yet the newspapers treat me as a leper. I am like on an isolated island where writing letters is easy and everyone reads them but no one wants to take any action to end the disease. Newspapers will not print my opinion letters because the facts are to traumatic for a society that is being destroyed by silence. Our forefathers saw how the opinion of the people was a tool to keep government wrongs from continuing. Of such importance to our forefathers that a constitutional article to protect freedom of the press, so the opinion of the people can not be stopped. Have what I did ! as a U.S. Marine to defend this nation (US) been so bad that isolating me to eternity is the only punishment available. I volunteer and do not violate the law is this what makes me so bad. I have so many different avenues but nothing goes any where.
My new media is a path that may be the news media should look at? Print the opinion of the people no matter the consequences> Let the truth stand and guide the United States of America. The newspapers can stop my letters in their papers but the word will get out. I may be 100% disabled and have a lot of obstacles to interfere with my goal of doing everything possible to make the United States of America better for all, but with out support can you understand how reality is questionable. A nation that does not want to protect itself from diseases with in, the “media of” silence is stopping the people’s opinion from curing it. What is reality and how does that pertain to me?
