SHAMAN ARRESTED FOR POSSESSION OF HOLY SACRAMENT

Constitutional interpretation wasn't difficult until we started trying to control substances. No one has the right to tell anybody else what they can or can't put into their own body. This kind of freedom has its roots in The Declaration of Independence (which has no influence on U.S. Law for some strange reason) and several of the amendments to the constitution known as The Bill Of Rights, which limits the governments ability to intrude into people's lives (but for some reason has been largely ignored for the past 100 years).

Freedom of religion was one of the main principles upon which this country was founded, and along with that the freedom to practice one's religion with the use of certain substances which allow one to commune with God. The sacred South American herb, Ayahuasca has been know to heal people from physical as well as mental ailments and many people who have used it say it has opened their minds in many ways.

The arrest of Taita Juan Agreda Chindoy, by U.S. customs officials is, in my opinion, an affront to the freedoms held most dear to America, and an attack on the most basic of human freedoms.

SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS CHALLENGE TO CHICAGO HAND-GUN BAN

The United States Supreme Court has issued its ruling in the challenge to Chicago's proposed ban on handguns. The ruling allows people to keep handguns in their homes as a means of self-defense. This is a little surprising, considering the Supreme Court's recent decisions supporting the power of the state against the rights of the individual. Here is an Al Jazeera report on the ruling:



As overpopulation and global mismanagement of the Earth's resources lead to increases in natural disasters, disease, poverty, war, and social unrest is expected to rise everywhere. It is predicted that as the scores of impoverished and desperate masses become more and more frustrated, the need for personal protection will continue to grow. Perhaps, this latest ruling by the Supreme Court reflects an understanding by the ruling class that as these social problems continue to spiral out of control, the ability of law enforcement to protect people's property will falter. It will again fall on people to protect their own belongings from the masses of the angry and the destitute. It might not be a bad time to buy a gun, or some other form of personal protection...
