I’m not really sure what we mean by “perps” anymore. I used to believe it was the bad guys in the government holding camp that physically electronically torturing me or causing such eletronic impulses through my body, and they certainly aren’t people out on the street, people I meet, or people who can someone move in next to me to cause me unrest.Many targets believe that these such perps are everywhere in the world, and not only everywhere out here in our world, but also among us. This is a classic case of extreme paranoia that gets the better of them, and they will start all kinds of gossip, back-biting, and fighting within the community to tell everyone else about this person. One of the last times I was on a conference call the woman on there stopped all the talk and said, “I just want you guys to know who’s a real target and who’s a perp.” OK. How does she know this?This community of targets is definitely losing the fight. If their paranoia is so bad that they need to call out other people to accost them, then maybe they should consider medication, a change of lifestyle, or just merely shutting up. It bothers me to no end when these people have no basis, and think all the rest of us care what they have decided about others. Get a life, would ya?

#590 Vicarious Trauma, Hyper Vigilance and the Spiral of DestructionI went through a period where I contacted every group that stud against torture. As I did one of the main words that kept coming up in connection with torture was of course, "Post Traumatic Stress Disorder". That then became part of my phrase in my Google search. It also lead to the others I have been using in association, like Hyper vigilance and Vicarious trauma. That was also where I came across the CIA psychologist that you and I spoke about,..... "The torture victim is forced to speak with others in and attempt to heal while those the victim talk to are at risk of vicarious trauma"...... ( they themselves can get PTSD from just listening to the torture we have endured)......This leads to those who the torture victim talks to in and effort to heal themselves to pushing the torture victim away to save themselves psychological trauma". "Leading to the further isolation of the torture victim by those he attempts to talk to who are at risk of PTSD".( by way of vicarious trauma). So the torture victim falls in a never ending spiral of destruction as those they attempt to talk to, to heal push them away and further isolate the torture victim".The CIA psychologist didn't put in the,"vicarious trauma", I did. I found this term by reading about doctors that treat post traumatic soldiers from Vietnam. It is better we use accepted terms in the professions when ever we can.I have been using this story so TIs know why others can't deal with the horror of what we have been through and prefer to believe it never happened. they are doing it to not be harmed by our pain through, "vicarious trauma". at the same time they need to understand that it is here on the groups that they can speak about their torture and heal.That would also be why I get so fucking pissed when new TI are blasted so bad by us older more experience TIs who forget what it was like to be unaware and to not have gotten this burden off of our shoulders. For these reason there is no excuse to kick these people off groups before they can begin to heal. we need more patience. Because they are in a state of, "Hyper Vigilance". I term I also picked up from doctors attempting to treat tortured soldiers coming back from Vietnam. torture brings on this hyper state until they can get so treatment and talk about there torture or trauma. It is normal for new TIs to be in this hypered state of panic and see threats where there are none.I try to explain to TI who see threats in normal every day events that this is what is now happening and why, like targeted individuals who think that the television news is talking about them. We can all relate to this a so point in our targeting.You added the last piece of this puzzle that has been being put together by us deca. that would be the writing by MI6 that the most effective torture is torture that seems to have no reason or no cause. Running the torture victims head around in circles trying to understand why. If we knew why we might be able to end this shit, but that is why they will never let us know or switch from one cause to another. It makes for a more effective torture program.Again though we have everything we need among ourselves to heal each other. we are all already PTSD and hearing new versions isn't going to do us harm. It is also why we are having so much trouble getting the public to accept that we are being targeted, they are saving themselves from vicarious trauma.by the way when I dug up my records and proved with their own records that police had had me under surveillance, that they had had me hospitalized and my home had been searched for bombs, proving what I had been saying all along, they then agreed I had been through some type of severe trauma and offered to treat me for PTSD. I told them I was already getting treatment from other Targeted people just like myself on the Internet.I also brought in the descriptions of military weapons that could explain the voices and the radiation weapon I was attacked by.No fucking hero's welcome for us, know home coming parade either and nobody wants to hear about or deal with what we have been through either. This is what the Vietnam war veterans went through when they came home. This is also why they had so much trouble dealing with it and why they sit at the American Legion Bar talking about there time over in Vietnam among themselves. That might even be why so many of my perps come from the American Legion building here in Riverside RI. One of my perps even had the sign in front saying, "congratulations M Gamma". I wonder if it was for the perping he was doing of if he got some government job for his participation.Maybe that is why we are all so separated so we can't slug down a few cold beers and heal each other. We need less wars and less weapons, not more.Peter Rosenholm

Five Things You Should Know AboutJudge Sonia Sotomayor and Disability RightsJudge Sonia Sotomayor, President Obama's first nominee to the United States Supreme Court, understands that disability rights are civil rights.As a judge on both the district court and circuit court, she has demonstrated that she recognizes the importance of Congress' role in enacting major disability rights laws, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Rehabilitation Act, and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).The Bazelon Center and other disability organizations support her nomination and ask you to help ensure her confirmation by the Senate.The laws mentioned above protect the civil rights of people with disabilities by requiring that they have equal opportunities in work and at school, and that they have equal access to government services and public accommodations, like stores, restaurants, theaters and sporting events. The care that Judge Sotomayor has taken in her decisions under these laws indicates a respect for Congress' intent to protect individuals with disabilities from such discrimination. And she is not afraid to take bold positions to ensure that Congress's laws protecting disability rights are upheld.Judge Sotomayor understands that the ADA protects millions of people with disabilities.Over the years many judges have taken an extremely narrow view of whether people with disabilities like cancer, diabetes, epilepsy and many mental illnesses were covered by the ADA. Last year, Congress had to amend the ADA to make it clear that people with disabilities like these are protected. Judge Sotomayor has a record of looking at all of the facts to ensure that she makes the right decision about whether a plaintiff is protected by the ADA.Judge Sotomayor knows how important special education is to students with disabilities and their families.Special education consists of critical specialized instruction and services for students with disabilities who need these supports to succeed in school and life. Judge Sotomayor has acknowledged that when families and schools disagree about what services are appropriate, a student's success in school hangs in the balance and, as a result, such disagreements should be resolved as soon as possible. In one case, Judge Sotomayor held that parents can place their child in an alternative setting and get reimbursed for the cost of appropriate services if the public school fails to provide them. This year the Supreme Court agreed with Judge Sotomayor's position when it decided the Forest Grove case.Judge Sotomayor knows that people with disabilities have a right to privacy.Under the ADA, employees are protected from having personal information disclosed to people who don't need to know about it. Judge Sotomayor has affirmed this, stating that employers should not be able to "monitor … [or] control … the health of their employees [or] the most intimate aspects of their off-duty lives."Judge Sotomayor knows that people with disabilities are entitled to lead independent lives, just like everyone else.Sometimes people make assumptions about individuals with disabilities based on stereotypes of helplessness. Judge Sotomayor understands that this is wrong. Arguing that it was wrong to appoint a guardian ad litem (a person appointed by the court to protect the interests of someone who is incapacitated) for a plaintiff who had been released from a psychiatric hospital, she determined that, at the least, the plaintiff should have been given adequate notice that, "if … a guardian ad litem was appointed, she would lose all authority to make decisions concerning her own case."Judge Sotomayor understands that court rulings have consequences.Judge Sotomayor understands that her decisions in disability rights cases have consequences for people with disabilities. In a case about whether a person with a learning disability should get accommodations to take the bar exam so she could earn her right to practice law, Judge Sotomayor wrote that the plaintiff "struggled through three laborious years of law school-at no small fiscal or psychic cost. To tell her now that she is free to go and practice another profession, or to return to her prior field … would not be consistent with the remedial goals that Congress intended in passing the ADA."In addition to her extensive legal expertise, Judge Sotomayor's life experience makes her uniquely qualified to be a disability rights champion on the Supreme Court. Unlike any other Supreme Court justice in recent memory, Judge Sotomayor has publicly acknowledged that she has a disability-insulin-treated diabetes. Her life experience with diabetes makes her uniquely qualified to help her colleagues on the Supreme Court understand the importance of the protections in the ADA and other disability rights laws to people with disabilities.For these reasons, we think Judge Sotomayor can be a champion for disability rights. The Bazelon Center and many other disability organizations have signed onto a letter supporting her nomination.What You Can DoWe need a disability rights champion on the Supreme Court. The Senate Judiciary Committee will begin hearings on her nomination next week. If you agree, please phone or write to your Senators - particularly if they are members of the committee (listed below) - to ask them to confirm Judge Sotomayor for the Supreme Court.

#587 Humans are full of ugly and horrible secrets, pride, fear, shame..............you don't see that we don't have a choice do you? We don't remain isolated and alone by choice. Relationships are of love, lust, infatuation or emotional or financial dependence. There are a few more but that is the reality of it. Rich men marry for lust and prestige a beautiful wife, a trophy wife while beautiful women reach there pinnacle by marrying for wealth and fame. All to often we see the old gnarly rich and powerful guy with this babe beside them. This isn't the point, what the point is, is that relationships can also be adversarial. We expect the significant other to not change to much or to fast or feel ashamed of them. There is an entire divorce system with divorce lawyers, counselors and judges making a living on these truths/facts.As TI's we are sabotaged in every way. We become poorer our health declines we are under constant assault. The strong man is made weak the beautiful woman made ugly the wealthy made poor. It is more than enough to cause love and support to turn to detachment and an adversarial situation. Only a partner who can really see the world for what it is and possibly understands the assault we are under could weather our destruction and stand by us. It is human nature to jump off a sinking ship. Even if they do hang in there they can become targeted along with the kids and other family members. It isn't a healthy situation. My children have stuck by me, they have for me like I have for them an instinctual love and attachment. They used that love actually in the forced suicide to try and get me to commit suicide, the most hurtful thing I ever experienced in my life and I'm sure they studied it.I'm happy you aren't under going this though and you shouldn't be, our attachments are under attack, coworkers, employer, friends, family. They are cutting right to our primal influences and attempting to sever all relationships that we have. There are so many things about ourselves that most people don't want to look at or really understand, they are ugly.With V2K and millimeter wave they experiment with action and reaction, they understand our prejudices, they understand all of our weaknesses, fears, loves, lusts, jealousies and hatreds. We are full of ugly and horrible defects. We are left raw and exposed, we have no secrets, only excepting these faults and defects can we live with the assault and ourselves. There is no pride, there is no shame all is exposed we are stripped bare. Maybe that is why they call it the voice of GOD when used in combination with millimeter wave to measure the response of our breathing and heart rates to all situations, thoughts and ideas, but it isn't God at all.Peter Rosenholm

I found the same cop who came to pick up porno and gun magazines with a cops name address on them put on my trash and then came to get rid of the evidence without filing a police report, was also the same one who showed up to start a huge augment when I got a restraining order on my wife during my divorce. He was also involved in a staged attack and false arrest that fell apart on the police. He later got a group of perps to jump me. This cop(Hurley) I found out lived across the street from my brother-in-law. The approving officer of the staged attack and false arrest grew up across the street from my in-laws and the two families were friends, go on vacation together type friends, parents and their daughters and my x-wife.My x-wife had forged my name on my checks steeling money from my personal account. I only had a personnel account because she stole all the money out of our joint account. Police covered for her and allow all this. They even had the phone tapped at my company and broke into it. They must have whispered in her ear until they destroyed my marriage long before I have knew I was a target. I got the restraining order because she had stabbed me with a wooden skewer. she then wanted a divorce and had police showing up and calling me to tell me what I could and couldn't do. She would walk into me and try to instigate fights so I was living in the upper apartment with one child while she had police calling me saying I couldn't lock the door at night. She then would come up and walk around me at night while I was sleeping. I have pictures she took while doing it to prove it.If you are in a relationship see that you and your partner have no secrets. Tell the about what they did to me. Tell them if someone is bad mouthing you behind your back to not hide it and expose the satanic game being played.She used to say she was waiting for me to be a millionaire and then she would divorce me. In the end her and the police tried to take everything I owned and she was to greedy and stupid to know she was being played.At this point I'll bet she was screwing the cops to boot because she wasn't having sex with me. her friend across the streets husband I now recall hung out at a gas station in the square where this cop (Hurley) was able to hang out at while drinking and smoking pot. I also remember her husband and my next door neighbor getting in a fight, something about her friends husband shining his house spot light at my next door neighbors house at night(brightening/spotlighting). So this cop must have been recruiting these people to be perps and teaching them these methods.I wonder how much each of these perps knew? I wonder how much my x-wife knew? Do they know they are being trained in community harassment techniques for law enforcement? They are all fools and will probably be made to screw each other over in the end. I now know more perps than I have fingers and towes."Remember they all had a tattoo on the inside of their lip". "This may be how they know who each other is".Peter Rosenholm

My aunt Kathy was dying of cancer, and I went over to visit her with her daughter, my cousin. We visited for awhile, and then my cousin and I went out for some fun that evening. Later, about 5 or 6 hours later, my aunt was dead.My parents went to visit my ailing uncle in the hospital, and I guess it was a nice visit. Later, about 6 hours later, my uncle died.I do not know for sure, of course, but my feeling is that the direct energy we give off is deadly and causes ill people to pass away. I should probably never become a nurse, a doctor or anything like that.

Long about the time that I realized I was a target, my parents used to tell me that their teenage son would get the one ring phone calls that were from his girlfriend that meant that he should call her, and he denied this and of course they didn't believe him, and still don't, they are in active denial of anything related to this. What that is is satellite telephone, like a back current that makes your phone ring and no one is there, it is computer-generated, I get this too, I get it just about everywhere I go: the grocery store, at work, other places. Its the same thing that makes street lights go off when we are near them. So, its safe to say that my parents are also targeted. They have fought with the static on their phone, and will never admit that its anything other than what the phone company can fix. The static on the phone is from the satellite telephone, its from eavesdropping on us, tracking us, monitoring us. They have bought many phones to remedy the situation, never in a million years will they believe that we are all targeted. I thought at one time that I had them, the bad guys. My mother's Buick had a built-in security detection system and when I pulled into their garage with this car, the lights started flashing, as if someone was trying to break in. I thought it was detecting the satellite. I went crazy for awhile and even called the police, but no one answered there and I didn't leave a message.The radio and television are watching us through this surveillance, and its insane what its like, like having someone right there mocking your last thought, or dream. Its a nightmare really. All of these people are a part of the surveillance because they are actively on the receiving end, its like it takes two people to make a form of communication, well, they are the 3rd party, the second party goes into some government complex for unknown purposes, the 3rd party gets the knowledge as it happens too, only doesn't have a purpose, only to know something that is important, namely, OUR LIVES. Really, I am the first party of everything and what I say, do, think, act, dream becomes some kind of feed that the receiving parties can then react to, use, destroy, feed off of or discard. The receiving parties know that this is just life, but they are often times startled and stunned and want to find reasons for the surveillance, as if we are all criminals and deserve such treatment, they look at us like caged animals or prisons who can't be trusted, they have seen our dreams, come on!

#585 Another Bill Against Illegal Chip Implants passed by California, North Dakota and WisconsinThe Bill anticipates everything -- employers compelling implantation as a condition of employment; the use of threats and coercion to keep implantees silent; attempts at sidestepping prosecution by claiming that the Statute of Limitations has expired; attempts at eluding detection by implanting children without the parents' knowledge or permission; etc. etc. Very nice.This went to the PA House State Government Committee in early April 2009. According to PA House news releases on June 19th, it's now cleared that Committee and has been moved to the floor of the full House for a vote.Note in the following excerpt from one of these news releases that these Pennsylvania legislators got their ideas from similar legislation passed in California, North Dakota and Wisconsin.http://www.pahouse.com/WeekinReview/09/000061909.asp================="The House State Government Committee has approved a bill (H.B. 1175) introduced by state Rep. Babette Josephs that would prohibit a person from requiring, coercing or compelling another person to be surgically tagged with an identification device. Currently, Pennsylvania has no law prohibiting the forced implantation of identification devices, though Josephs said that numerous threats to personal health, privacy and civil liberty had been brought to the nation's attention by other states. California, North Dakota and Wisconsin have already passed legislation to create civil penalties and cause for action for damages resulting from such coerced procedures."=================

#581 We are close to the event horizonIt might be true for the moment that those that care about us are at risk for vicarious trama if they believe in our torture. It hurts them to think we are being hurt and tormented. It is easier and safer for them to ingone it or beleive it isn't happening.As more and more of us speak up though this crime will enter the mind set of the public. When they begin to hear of others saying the same thing it will be easier for them to accept.I was reading about Martin Luther King the orther day in connection with COINTELPRO and the similarities were all to apparent. They recorded his private life and sent him a tape recording of him having an affair in a hotel room and told him to kill himself. They tried everything in the world to stop him from uniting people in peacful demonstrations. Someone stabbed him and then he was of course sabotaged and then assassinated.Now look at who we have for president and a man elected by citizen campaign donations at that. Not sponsored be the wealthy and powerful. If there is a chance to expose the level of surveillance and control on the common man it is now, before it is to late, while the Internet is still open and free. We are close to the event horizon, the point of no return to the end of individual rights, it's now or possibley never.Peter Rosenholm

Jane Harman, a California Democrat and House homeland security committee member who was briefed on the department's classified intelligence budget the program was included in the Obama administration's 2010 budget request. She had not been given final word that the program would be killed.For years, domestic agencies such as the Federal Emergency Management Agency and Interior Department have had access to this satellite imagery for scientific research, to assist in response to natural disasters like hurricanes and fires, and to map out vulnerabilities during a major public event like the Super Bowl. Since 1974 the agency's requests satellite imagery have been made through the federal interagency group, the Civil Applications Committee. The Bush administration, however, decided to funnel the requests through the Homeland Security Department and expand their use for homeland security and law enforcement purposes.Anti-Satellite WeaponsOverview* Programs Program 437* Program 505* Air-Launched Miniature Vehicle (ALMV)* Kinetic Energy ASAT [KE-ASAT]* Mid-Infrared Advanced Chemical Laser [MIRACL]* High Energy Research and Technology Facility (HERTF)* Targets and VulnerabilityOther Resources* Duel Between an ASAT with Multiple Kill Vehicles and a Space-Based Weapons Platform with Kinetic Energy Weapons by P.
