Former Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos
player John Moffitt quit mid-season and walked away from one-million dollar contract because he felt "...like the craze of the NFL and the obsession nationwide is the biggest distraction and some of the worst television at times, and just, like, a waste of time,"
Was this a hint for the masses to wake up for something only the elite know is coming? It is no secret that the public has lost almost all trust in government to inform the public and to do the right thing.
Is this a veiled warning considering that a NFL player gave up a million dollars of fiat currency to pursue independent media? Many Americans know that the mainstream media is biased and only release information to help their corporate handlers and to sway public opinion on political issues. This can be seen specially in the gun control debate seen on MSNBC and most other liberal media stations. The use of catch phases and scary words like "assault" weapon, or statements suggesting that failure to act to curb our collective right to bear arms will result in children dying. Even through most Americans disagree with this agenda.
The First Amendment was created to keep government in check and to keep the populace in updated on governmental issues. In the past century this principle has been crushed under the weight of profits over truth and political agenda over the people's right to the truth.
“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.”
~Harry Truman
