Guns, Crime, Spiritual Strength & Sex Appeal
Carrying a weapon doesn’t earn you respect. When people treat you with kid gloves because you’re “packin’ some heat”, respect doesn’t come into it – it’s fear. And the crooks read these words with a slight grin. They want us to be afraid, it makes them feel powerful. We’re afraid of them, but ironically it is because they are weak and resort to arming themselves, that we actually have no respect for crim’s at all. But how do non-crooks appear to them? Well, because of our worry of being their next victim, we either avoid them or suck up to them. So they get surrounded by apparently weaker people who do their bidding. And they get their little fix – imaginary, that they have risen up a little in status. That the people around them look up to them. But of course behind our pretence we know they are scum.
It is actually because of their inner weakness that they feel they need to arm themselves. They are actually more fearful on the inside than the people who don’t choose to arm themselves – ironic. Another thing which is the opposite way round from how we perceive it. Outward aggression is an absolutely certain sign that the person is weak. They don’t have the strength of character to exercise self-discipline and choose not to hurt. That takes a bit more backbone. And to choose even to hide one’s potential to hurt takes as much strength. To give up the control of others through fear, to give up imaginary power, with the inner contentment, that one is strong. To gain power from anonymity, to be an unknown quantity, mix with the crowd, and avoid fighting through inner strength.
Why do people resort to such crutches as guns and knives? Part of it is that they are weak and succumb to the culture that they were brought into. With the application of some intelligence, they could take an outside look at the life which surrounds them, and ask themselves if really they chose to be doing what they do or have they been conned by others – have they feebly followed like a sheep into a life of violent crime, which really they would never have chosen if they’d been left to their own devices? Most will have fallen into it like sheep. No intelligence in copying those around you. It is possible for every individual involved in violent crime to get out today. Like us, they are probably immobilised with the imaginary illusion of fear – “what happens if I get followed – I’m in debt?” Fear holds us all back from realising our dreams – and it doesn’t exist in reality. You can’t touch it.
Probably a good portion of the people who rely on weapons and violence are actually very insecure inside. Maybe many had dominating and cruel fathers, or maybe inadequate fathers. Subconsciously they probably followed some of these patterns that they were brought up with. They were disempowered and angry because those around them weren’t giving them the love they deserved. Not having had good guidance, that anger may have taken over their actions,
