Tätä kirjoittaessani ei ole maaliskuun vaan heinäkuun loppu. Seuraavat mietteet olen kopioinut sellaisenaan päiväkirjastani maaliskuun 18. päivän kohdalta. Tekstiin ei ole lisätty mitään, mutta siitä on poistettu muutama sana eli pari viittausta paikkoihin ja henkilöihin.
Lähtiessämme ajamaan Helsingistä näimme ison lauman poliiseja ja kaksi poliisiautoa kyttäämässä yhdessä risteyksessä. Tämän viikonlopun havainnoksi jäi se, että poliiseja kuhisi aivan kuvottava määrä Helsingissä ja muuallakin Etelä-Suomessa, missä liikuimme. Näimme poliisin pysäyttämiä autoja. Yhdestä Mersusta oli irrotettu rekisterikilvet. Kaupungin eteläisellä rannalla ajaessamme vastaamme tuli poliisiautoja suunnilleen 500 metrin välein.
Suomesta ei ole tulossa poliisivaltiota, vaan Suomi ON poliisivaltio! Olemme ajaneet ulkomailla, enkä muista missään muualla nähneeni suhteellisesti niin paljon poliiseja kyttäämässä kuin Suomessa ja erityisesti Helsingin seudulla. Helsinki on totaalisen kontrollin poliisileiri. Minusta tuntuvat aivan järkyttäviltä lehtien valitukset siitä, että kansalaisten turvallisuus vaarantuu, kun poliisien määrärahoja vähennetään. Asiahan on juuri päinvastoin. Poliisit ovat kansalaisten pahin turvallisuusuhka. Aivan ylivoimaisesti pahin. Jos poliisien määrää ja määrärahoja ja valtuuksia lisätään, ei se tule näkymään siten, että kansalaisiin kohdistuneita rikoksia tutkittaisiin sen enempää kuin tähänkään asti. Se tulee näkymään siten, että poliisi kiusaa tavallisia kansalaisia entistä enemmän. Poliisi on rikollinen rikollisten joukossa ja vieläpä se kaikkein pahin rikollinen. Maailman julmuuksista poliisi on tehnyt kaikkein pahimmat. Juutalaisten joukkotuhossakin poliisilla oli keskeinen rooli.
Ihmiset ovat aivopestyjä palvomaan poliisia. Aivopesua tulee televisiosta joskus monelta kanavalta yhtä aikaa. Aivopesua on kaikkialla. Edes uutiset siitä, miten röyhkeästi ja ylimielisesti poliisi rikkoo lakia eikä saa siitä mitään rangaistusta, eivät saa kansalaisia havahtumaan siihen tosiasiaan, että elämme poliisivaltiossa, jossa jokainen ihminen on potentiaalinen poliisin uhri. Lehdissä on ollut pöyristyttäviä uutisia poliisin tekemistä laittomista kotietsinnöistä, eikä tämä asia näy vaivaavan juuri ketään. Erään uutisen mukaan poliisi oli jopa murtautunut väärään asuntoon jättäen oven auki ja paikat hajalleen.
Poliisin toiminta on täysin sikamaista. Eräässä uutisessa mainittiin, että poliisi “oli ottanut kiinni” useita ihmisiä Keuruun varuskunta-alueella epäiltyjen raiskaustapausten vuoksi ja todennut lopulta, että tutkinta lopetetaan, koska mitään rikoksia ei ole tapahtunut. Osa kiinni otetuista oli ollut armeijan sotilaita. Tämä tapaus osoittaa, että poliisi voi “ottaa kiinni” kenet tahansa milloin tahansa, vaikka mitään rikosta ei olisi tapahtunutkaan. Tapaus osoittaa myös sen, että yhteiskunnan valtahierarkiassa poliisi on sotilaiden yläpuolella. Poliisin leijonavaakuna on arvokkaampi kuin kenraalin leijonavaakuna. Poliisilla on valtaa kenraaliin, mutta kenraalilla ei ole valtaa poliisiin.
Olen syksystä asti miettinyt ja suunnitellut, että kirjoittaisin oikein super poliisinvastaisen jutun. Olen keräillyt lehtileikkeitäkin sitä varten. Jutun ydin olisivat tässä mainitut asiat eli poliisin yhä vain röyhkeämmäksi käyvä vallankäyttö, johon sisältyy jo ilmiselviä laittomuuksia, joita kukaan ei enää uskalla vastustaa, koska silloin on vaara joutua poliisin voimakeinojen kohteeksi. Elämme pelon yhteiskunnassa, jossa poliisi “voi ottaa kiinni” kenet tahansa jonkin mielikuvituksellisen “on aihetta epäillä” perusteen nojalla. Tilanne ei vielä ole yhtä paha kuin jossakin Valko-Venäjällä, mutta tähän suuntaan ollaan menossa.
Super-poliisinvastainen juttu on vielä kirjoittamatta. Keräämäni lehtileikkeetkin ovat jo hukassa. Uutta kerättävää materiaalia ”onneksi” kertyy koko ajan.

A few words about Liberty
The Declaration of the
Rights of Man, which was approved 225 years ago in France, states
that people are born and live in freedom and have the same rights.
Liberty consists in the freedom to do everything which injures no one
else.
In the spirit of this
declaration and the freedom ideals of the age of Enlightenment,
English philosopher John Stuart Mill – who is also known as a
defender of women's rights as well as freedom of expression and
freedom of religion - summed up the essence of freedom in his book
“On Liberty”. He wrote that the only purpose for which power can
be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community,
against his will, is to prevent harm to others. His own good, either
physical or moral, is not a sufficient warrant.
The Declaration of of the
Rights of Man was inspired by the United States Declaration of
Independence, which stated that all men are created equal, and that
they have certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life,
Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
United Nations Declaration
of Human Rights of 1948 is based on the original Declaration of
the Rights of Man, but it has been watered down from the original
edition. Although it states that people are born free, it does not
mention that people should also live in freedom. The Declaration does
not define what freedom is, so each dictator can define it as he
wants.
The principle of the
inviolability of the liberty of citizens is no longer recognized.
Freedom of the individual is no longer relevant. The imagined
interest of individual - and in many cases actually only imagined -
is considered sufficient reason to violate his freedom. Parliament
enacts laws, which reduce the freedom of people to decide their own
affairs. Citizens' personal freedom, which the major philosophers and
statesmen a couple of hundred years ago defined as an inviolable
fundamental right, is being sold by politicians like slices of cheap
sausage.
Extreme leftist, who want
to establish communism and totalitarianism, do not appreciate the
true freedom of the individual, because the pursuit of happiness -
such as the The Declaration of Independence says – leads to
economic disparities. Some are always more successful than others in
seeking to achieve happiness. Individual freedom will also frustrate
attempts to create socialism, because free men are unwilling to
submit to the socialist system. They vote with their feet if nothing
else helps . This is why socialism always includes suppression of
freedom and erection of walls. Socialist model also includes the
notion that a private citizen does not need a personal freedom,
because he cannot use it properly. He is not able to decide what is
good for him, and what is good for the society. Decisions must
therefore be made by the political minority and elite, which knows
what is best for all. There are lot of examples of the kind of
happiness what socialist societies can achieve, but still many people
believe in them.
The concept of Liberty is
so old and so common that even the socialists have not been able to
totally abandon it. They have come up with a new definition of
freedom, "freedom to something " - as opposed to the old
definition "freedom from something”. In literature the names
are positive liberty and negative liberty. The later is of course not
real freedom. It is more a possibility to something.
The socialist way of
thinking has crept insidiously in activities of non socialist states.
The technique is the
same, with which the Soviet dictatorship was justified . All
restrictions were intended only for the happiness of people, even
though people did not always get it.
When the value of the
freedom of the individual is close to zero, and when the right to
security has been increased at the highest value of society,
liberties can taken away from the people completely arbitrary. Even a
small improvement in the theoretical security allows the massive
reduction of individual freedom.
Society has become a
totalitarian dictatorship of security in which a small clique of
politicians and authorities has the sovereign right to decide what
are the security issues, and after that decision it has the sovereign
right to use coercion in these "security issues". Security
is the magic word with which the democratic debate is silenced.
National security, the security of individuals, the security of
Internet - any one of these is a sufficient reason to take off the
last remnants of our freedom. And when this is happening, we are
rejoicing and cheering and waving flags without noticing what is
actually happening. And no deadline exists. This is going on and on.
A small elite of better knowing people make compulsory laws in order
to increase citizens' happiness. Actually such laws reduce happiness.
The concept of "right to security " is an essential part
of political liturgy nowadays, and it is used to fool people. When
something is prohibited, it is said that the decision was necessary
because of the people 's right to security.
Although the world has
changed, I still appreciate the original freedom of the individual ,
and I believe that it is best realized in a democratic and equality
based society. Not in a society in which somebody is pulling the
strings behind the scenes to set up a dictatorship. None of the
political parties seem realize this. The concept of liberty is not
used in political speeches any more. The politicians do not promise
more freedom. They promise more security. And this means
dictatorship.
I am in favor of freedom,
even though I know it is considered to be old-fashioned . I don't
like uniforms. They are not symbols of freedom.

There is no such
thing as planetary Court of Justice, which would infallibly define what is good
and what is evil. The definition is always made by some person or group of
people. Violence and in some cases a mere coincidence decides which
interpretation remains prevailed.
The system, which
is based solely on violence and coincidences, is not very stable. Thus,
attempts have been made to connect the concept of good and evil with some
permanent principle, to which people may rely, when they decide, if doing
something is accepted or not.
Traditionally the
monarch or religious leaders have had the last word in defining what is
accepted and what is not. Later the people itself has got a right to express
it's will by voting in elections. The process, which is dominated by people
themselves, is called democracy.
Today's democracy
is estranged from what it ideally should be. The citizens feel that they cannot
influence common affairs. This leads to the alienation of the political
process. People are not interested in voting, because people feel that nothing
will change anyway.
The current type of
democracy is not even intended to implement the will of the people. It is
merely a facade, enabling authorizes the use of power. If citizens complain
about any of the regulations, they are reminded that the direction of the
policy is decided in the elections. So if they want to change things, they have
the opportunity to influence by voting. They have to accept the fact that
existing rules correspond to the will of the people until the next election.
Every now and then
people's trust in the current policy and the legitimacy of the rules is
examined through surveys that ask what the citizens think about the policy and
the rules. The purpose of these surveys is not to find out the true opinion of
the people, but manipulated opinion that supports the current policy and its
existing rules thus resulting in the North Korean figures, which show that more
than 95% of the population accept the law. The situation is arranged such a way
that the pressure created by the social environment eliminates undesirable
alternatives. In addition, the questions are formulated to lead to certain
direction, and the answers are interpreted purposefully.
