This article illuminates much about this country's involvement with pedophile rings and police/gov't protection of predators and criminals.  DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU DON'T WISH TO BECOME EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE TRUE STATE OF AFFAIRS IN THIS COUNTRY.  The truth is very, very hard to take.  Doing something to prevent this type of atrocity is going to take some immense effort; I for one would have no idea where to start.  I have been studying about the illuminati and their criminal cohorts for years and have stumbled upon some very uncomfortable facts.  You won't be able to live your life as a true citizen if you neglect to realize how decrepid some or most of our leaders are.  The dark forces, after all, are of course going to go for the leaders of a society first, and leave the rest for later.  Here's the article (rather long):      http://rense.com/general95/mkultra.html

      I wish folks would take the time to realize that much of what goes on in our world is preventable human catastrophes created by people who have basically betrayed the most fundamental traits of being a human being.  Yes, it's true we need to be positive, but there is also a place for being realistic also, is there not?  The more aware people become about what is truly happening, the more empowered they are to change it.
