meredith.scsn.net (Kevin Meredith) having slipped his bonds and jumped the fence, discovers that over doing the prozac thing can be gosh darn good fun! It helps take his mind off the small problem of justifying his acceptance of weapons of mass murder and the stated will of those who yank his chains to use them against his fellow counterparts - at any time they believe it �in their nation�s interest to do so�. Kevin, for reasons best known to and hidden deep within his smooth skinned brain, has yet to offer the �logical justification� of his entrenched belief that no one has the right to refuse support society just because it is so lost to the madness of greed as to participate in plans and preparations involving the will and the capacity to manufacture weapons of mass murder. And he truly believes that no one should be able to claim the right to refuse to support any society simultaneously teaching millions of young adults that training to press buttons that will launch humanity back to the stone age is completely normal and acceptable - because he believes if we say we will do it - we won�t have to do it!(?) Wake up Kevin! Some of this is above and beyond his grasp. - But not to worry so Kevin, your spoutings, at a very minimum are assisting me in communicating the message that every human being has a lawful and unassailable right, and a concurrent and unavoidable duty to refuse to participate in plans and preparations that involve the will and the capacity to mass murder fellow human beings. Kevin! the tax refusal is for everybody! Anybody can lawfully participate! Its L E G A L !!! You don�t have to be so scared! You stop supporting the insanity and some similar soul (who I gather you consider, for some reason or other, your mortal enemy) stops supporting the insanity . . . see its simple! Everybody stops with the war drums and �my gun is bigger than your gun� bullshit and humanity gets a chance to study its soul; to understand what being �human� is all about! So can the stupid stuff, take off your dunce cap, have a laugh and think about it . . . go ahead its easy! read and learn how to have a laugh! and exactly how easy and enjoyable life can be! and now, . . . drum roll please . . . Kevin�s bit of clockwork orange!: To those afraid you won't have what you need when taxfree's Big Exciting Tax Revolt takes place, fear no more! Listed below are some of the finest products available to those preparing for the revolt and who have some extra money on hand because they, like taxfree, don't have to pay taxes anymore. PLUS! Order now and get 15 percent off! 1. Property flags and ribbon. Now that there's no more taxes, there aren't any more streets, parks, schools, libraries, post offices etc. either. These flags, which come 100 to a case, are ideal for marking off your new property in areas previously owned by the government. The extra-sturdy pole can be imbedded in the concrete of streets and sidewalks, but will provide a firm hold in soft surfaces as well, such as playground sand. And each case comes with 100 feet of ribbon bearing the message, "Cross this line and die." $15.96 per case. taxfree@planeteer.com asks: Kevin . . . how many feet of tape per case? That�s not wise Kevin. Customers will balk! That�s one foot of tape per flag! Here�s a solution. �Move� the price (don�t �increase� it) a few dollars higher, say to $27.95 and throw in �for free� some 10 rolls of tape at 200�/roll - that�s merchandising - you�ll make a killing! :) 2. Automatic assault weapon with scope and laser. You'll be doing lots of shooting when the tax revolt comes, mainly to defend your property, but also to help taxfree execute any lingering government types or former polluters. $2,095 per weapon. taxfree@planeteer.com wonders: Sounds pricey. How many rounds per weapon are included in this price? Plus! I�m a bit worried here! What�s with this �execute� requirement? That sounds like an awful lot of paper work. Can�t we just shoot them or such and feed them to the wildlife? Just kidding folks, but I think Kevin will kick the traces when he first eyes this and fails to read the whole thing before hiring another band wagon. (Are you working for the government Kevin? Go ahead feel free to tell us, we won�t tell your boss.) 3. Framed Wisdom of taxfree. That's right, now you can be reminded of the utopiatic wisdom of taxfree anywhere in your home -- your bedroom, kitchen, bath. Each portion of taxfree's wisdom, culled from his daring Internet posts, is embroidered on all-natural cotton and framed in black faux-bone. Order one of the the wisdoms below for $7.99. (taxfree@planeteer.com asks, in a friendly way, �utopiatic�? sounds good but just maybe it should go like this: �be reminded of taxfree�s utopian wisdom anywhere�) (and what�s with the $7.99!!!!!?? Wisdom, Kevin doesn�t grow in schoolrooms!! People are ready to pay for this stuff! Get rich overnight, offer your selection of choice tidbits at $49.95 per on purple cross-weaved linen with red and blue focal points. At this price you�ll get rich and I want my 95% thank you!) > taxfree@planeteer.com (Daniel J.

"Why Jimmy's Mom and Dad Had To Die" Comic Book. As taxfree implies in most of his recent posts, a real live anti-tax anti-pollution anti-weapons-of-mass-destruction revolt can't happen without a lot of good old fashioned killing. This comic book has been written especially for children under 10 who may not understand why it's so important that all the people who disagree with taxfree be killed. Children can learn along with Chuckie as his parents explain why his best friend Jimmy's parents were summarily executed in their living room while Jimmy watched, and how happy Jimmy is now that he has been sold as a slave to a tribe in a nearby suburb. $5.99 per issue. (taxfree interjects: That�s Kevin�s hopeful interpretation of the posts. He knows it isn�t so. But heck! How will anyone pay attention to him if he can�t tell one or two lies here and there and over yonder and . . .) But, in another vein . . . stand still Kevin while I�m looking! Here�s another educational idea! A book written specially for children explaining why their parents felt they had to pay taxes in support of weapons that would be used to murder every other family on the face of the earth including their pen pals in other nations because the price of oil had to be kept at a reasonable price for . . . mommy and daddy and the kids!! This should sell like Shell gas after they murdered my compatriot Ken Saro-Wiwa. But I doubt that you ever heard of the name, person or care to know about him , his actions and what he did in the name of humanity and the struggle for freedom from your kind. But I won�t give up on you Kevin, as long as you promise not to give up on yourself and remain open to the possibility that being human is acceptable for the populace at large. 5. Taxfree's Yard Varmint Recipe Book. Once all the roads have broken down and there aren't any more government officials to ensure the smooth operations of commerce, you won't be able to travel much further than your own yard to get food. But you'd be surprised how delectable ordinary grubs, ants, worms and other creatures can be if prepared properly. What? Found a human intruder in your backyard?! Taxfree's got a few recipes for that, too! $19.95 per copy. taxfree@planeteer.com points out to Kevin: Maybe, just maybe, Kevin, your neighbors and fellow citizens have more smarts than you seem willing to acknowledge; and here, just above, you suggest that their just dumb taxpayers! Yet, you said elsewheres that nuclear weapons will never be used because people are too smart to do so; Care to take a stab at explaining why they were built (forget the ideology thing - that�s a non-starter) and why you believe we just can�t live at peace with each other? 6. "Ignorance is Strength -- A Taxfree History" Finally, the real history of the human race. Find out how wonderful human life used to be before governments raised taxes and enforced all those stupid principles like equal protection under the law, due process, national defense, fair elections, universal education and a transportation infrastructure to support commerce and dramatically improve standard of living. Learn the truth about the Internet, one of taxfree's favorite media for expressing his views. Think it was developed by the U.S. government? Not in this book! taxfree@planeteer.com adds (for Kevin�s comprehension) Here we are in the mid 21st century, and everyone has the means to destroy the world. How long Kevin before someone like your present self, thoroughly upset that no one is listening to his control trip, says: �Piss on it! and presses the button? Think about it Kevin. If history has shown us anything its that all weapons can be re-engineered for effective use by lesser numbers. Think about it and your knowledge of human predispositions. How can you justify your presumption to speak for future generations, stating that no individual has the right (or as in my case, should not have the right) to push society to think about the future and our present and undeniable will and capacity to murder each other on simple whimsy? Think about it Kevin! You have the energy! Get involved on the right side of the issue! taxfree@planeteer.com, ever the mischievious devil, frustrating Kevin�s curses and all that, . . . adds a bit more! I�ve turn it into a roast Kevin day! 7. Kevin�s corpse a shiskabob (what�s that you say? All fat and no meat? Damn! Can�t even trust your neighbourhood butcher these days!) And! another drum roll please! Kevin, if this helps my book sales . . . were you expecting some kind of a percentage? How does this work? A 95/5 split in favour of the good guy? :) If more than my predicted 660-670 participants join within three years . . . will I owe you any extra? :) And . . . really, I shouldn�t, but shucks, why not? You mentioned that the net was developed by your favourite government. And here, I, a poet, seeking justice . . . tres delicieux . . . n�est ce pas? Laugh at or with Kevin folks, but he does have a refreshing bit of passion regarding the protection of his ego and wallet. (it might have to do with his ownership of savings bonds) Build your energy levels to that of Kevin�s!

Lavigne Founder, Co-ordinator International Humanity House -- �IN MUDDY FIELDS FORGOTTEN� ABOVE MUDDY FIELDS FORGOTTEN, O�ER FOOLS THROWN THERE ASTREW, RAPTORS SOAR SO PATIENTLY FOR SOLDIER MEAT ANEW THEIR CAW A CERTAIN TEMPO, EYES GLANCING DOWN THE WAIT FOR BULLETS THROUGH VACANT MINDS AND CARRION FOR THEIR PLATES. GOD! I PRAY! DAMN SUCH FOOLS! SUCH BRAINLESS, USELESS TWITS! SEND THEM TO A SPECIAL HELL! WHERE TOGETHER THEY CAN FRIT!
