Scam ridden commissioner of precrime gets laughed off of stage.

I tell you, the mood of the herd is turning.  It used to be easy for the con men to wrap their socialist, fascist, confiscation-state, power-concentration ideas up in fancy new terms and slick personal deliveries (sophistry) and everyone in the herd would either go ga-ga over it or just quietly agree with it in order to avoid being the ostracized outlier of the herd.  Tacit agreement was a form of the fake political correctness that I predicted many times would someday collapse as a result of the decline of the Debt Ponzi.  Edmund Burke wrote," all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing".   But that is exactly the herding norm.  Most of the herd is good but nobody wants to be the outlier.  With notable exceptions like Ron Paul, nobody wants to yell out that the king has no clothing.  Nobody wants to be the brave intellectual who does nothing but tell truths while fools and morons ridicule him, call him crazy and tell him to be quiet. 

You see, when the herd is well fed you can pretty much do whatever you want to it.  You can herd it here and there.  You can pull out a fat calf every week and eat it for dinner.  You can kick any strays into submission that you find.  You can enclose the herd in stalls and leave it to eat and stand it in its own $hit all day long.  You can do all of these things and the herd won't seem to care.  As long as there is enough easy food, and easy (but artificial) prosperity, there is a hope for a better life.  When that facade collapses and all that's left in view is the slaughterhouse then the herd suddenly has a mass awakening.  It ripples through the herd in a visible fashion.  Those who were labeled stupid or sleepy suddenly wake up and they self-organize.  They no longer allow the predators to pick off their children with impunity.  In fact, they get downright mean, aggressive, resourceful and yes, dear elite con men, bold.

Ray Kelly, commissioner of NYPD and huge proponent of 4th amendment violations by his jackbooted thug police force, got the horns recently at a speech at Influential Brown University. He was there to talk about (i.e. indoctrinate the students regarding) the policy that he calls "proactive policing".  The main visible component of it is commonly known as "stop and frisk".  In other words, if a NYPD thug doesn't like the way you look, this unconstitutional policy gives them the swagger (notice I did not call it a "right") to approach you on the street and freaking put their hands on you in a TSA style frisk down.  Of course then they start asking questions, demanding identification cards, asking you what you are doing, where you are going and other intimidating things. If you tell them to bugger off you will certainly end up face down in the dirt with several trumped up charges placed on you, one of which is always "resisting arrest".  They might as well just change the name and call it what it is: resisting tyranny.  Even if you cooperate, the cops might use the occasion to plant drugs on you in order to meet their arrest quotas.

Instead of just listening politely to Kelly and clapping at the end, students who attended his propaganda indoctrination session heckled the SOB off the stage.  He had to close his speech quickly and skitter away like the cockroach of a man that he is.  The school administration which agreed to allow Kelly his shot at corrupting the student's minds could have called in the riot police to stop the kids but they realized that they had already lost control of the situation.  Instead, they just cleared the hall.  One of the hecklers was Jenny Li, a Brown student who helped organize the protest.  She told the New York Post that some students had earlier petitioned the university to cancel Kelly’s lecture, but when the school went ahead with the event she said, “we decided to cancel it for them”.

Of course, the school administration call the whole thing deplorable, blah blah blah.  But the school administration is part of the herd just like the rest of us and what they just saw was a strong challenge to their leadership (AKA control) of the herd.  It is a challenge that they were not prepared for.  They walked right into it by bringing in such an indefensible fascist as Kelly.  They should have brought in less controversial scam artists first.  The administration did not understand how the mood of the herd is changing and that what used to work in the past would not work going forward.


I wish that I had figured out this herd thing on my own but I got it from socioeconomic genius Bob Prechter a number of years ago.  The mood of the herd allowed all the fractional reserve credit bubbles to form but now that the bubbles are proving unsustainable, the con men who are trying to drive the herd in a given direction will find that the herd has a mind of its own.  As the Global Debt Ponzi crumbles we can only expect this trend to grow.  All of their models will stop working and none of the old tricks for driving the herd will work anymore.  They will find out the hard way that the herd either allows them or disallows them.  Once the herd turns against them, no amount of control or force or bribery or coercion works anymore.  The herd gets stubborn and would rather take the pain than comply.

It's unfolding before our very eyes.
