Volunteer Disarmament

 For Consideration:  Volunteer Disarmament 


The continuing carnage in America caused by the violent use of GUNS has to be confronted. We need a series of transformative national policies to immediately impact the possession of GUNS in America both legal and illegal possession and ownership of GUNS


The proliferation of guns in our society has been staggering and deadly, there is not a day in America where the specter of GUN  violence impacts a family and a community with horrific consequences 


Our nation is fixated on GUNS and it is killing and causing injuries that are beyond the pale of anything that can be tolerated in a civilized society 


Our society is a culture where GUN violence is now an accepted norm and tolerated 


In America the gun is worshipped as a sacred artifact. The fervor for guns is beyond any sense of reason and borders on insanity. Gun violence not only destroys lives but the health costs of gun violence is in the billions. The reality of suicides and gun mishaps in the homes of families is tragic and senseless.


It is critical that as a nation and culture we must take a life altering posture and position towards GUNS


Plane Ideas believes that ‘Volunteer Disarmament ‘ is the most effective strategy and posture to address GUN violence in America 


We can achieve  extremely high rates of ‘Disarmament’ with effective rates of compliance by implementing governmental policy driven structural processes that include lucrative GUN income tax and credit deductions, including healthy incentives to not own GUNS and GUN Buy Back Programs 


Plane Ideas strategies include banning GUN sales and limitations on the manufacturing of certain types of GUN manufacturing, as well as mitigation of specific designated crime sentences for GUNS surrendered to the government 


Our communities and our own lives are more secure and safe from gun violence with the absence of guns than the ownership and possession of guns in our homes and in the community. 


We are safer as a community when NO ONE OWNS A GUN! Disarmament saves lives in both normal and crisis situations in our country.


We must disarm our nation and our communities. We must be advocates for the sanctity of life in America in all communities.


Volunteer Disarmament Now!!

Wrong Religion

Years ago during my early activism, I lived in Southfield, MI a inner suburb of Detroit, at the time I was living in Southfield it was in a transitional period where it’s Jewish residents were leaving and Black Folks were moving into Southfield.


There was two major events happening the B’nai David Synagogue,was up for sale and a CityCouncil person was resigning. 


I decided to submit my request to become the new council member and I also advocated against the city purchasing the Synagogue or any religious building which tax payers had to pay for years 


The Southfield City Council was primarily Jewish with a few Black City Council members , I also advocated for an election process not a appointment process for the replacement council person 


I became quite controversial and a target for my activism….My interview was quite adversarial and of course I was not appointed.


In the marketplace of politics in America everything is in play including religion, race, class and one’s consciousness nothing has changed in decades in fact it has gotten worse

Intentional Exclusion

One of the universal laws is the properties of consensus and the absence of collective insights and wisdom creates a vacuum of emptiness and failed outcomes 


It is prevalent everywhere in the world when segments of consensus are omitted and eliminated from a collective resolution there is a diminished and frequently hollow outcome and results 


In the Trump Regime there is a deliberate and intentional policy and protocols to remove Women and Minorities from policy decisions and implementation of government services and programs including peace negotiations currently in the war with Iran


There are no Women or Minorities( especially Black Americans) on the negotiating team as a result it is virtually impossible to secure a comprehensive agreement/ resolution with all the parties in the Iran war


There can never been a consensus without the genius of everyone insights and experiences. Trump’s team is impotent without the genius of Women and Minorities 


Trump ‘s reliance on only White Men is a miserable failure and nothing of substance can be achieved with only White Men making decisions that impact all

The Situation Now in America

This last year in America has been surreal and sometimes unrecognizable on so many levels and layers 


The Trump Regime has brought the nation unimaginable levels of chaos and incompetence that has created levels of anxiety that is off the scale of anything reasonable 


Daily threats of massive layoffs and downsizing is the theme of Trump Regime, In the private sector AI is hovering with its own threats of downsizing and layoffs in areas where careers never encountered such concerns


Of course the most vulnerable sectors of this atmosphere of chaos and uncertainty is the usual collectives of the poor and needy 


There is no safe harbors or sanctuaries in the hurricane of the Trump Regime, stability, reliability and security don’t occupy any space or place in this state of America under Trump’s insanity 


The lack of faith and trust in the reliability of our basic federal government services and accountability has left the entire country in a state of instability from air travel to dysfunctional government websites 


Our  government particularly the Federal government is a mess from getting the mail delivered to concerns about reliability and performance from our  bureaucrats , all of this mayhem is a cluster fuck of late


Literally everyday is unpredictable and soaked with apprehension and uncertainty and doom 


This is not how a nation that was founded centuries ago should operating in this century 


America is lost at sea floating endlessly into uncharted territory daily 


Help!!!!!!!

Ye

I have zero respect for ‘Ye’ nonetheless his being Banned entry into  the UK is outrageous 


Soon I expect more voices will be sanctioned and silenced by other nations and even organizations 


The UK has allowed officials from nations with horrific human rights violations as well as arms merchants into the UK( US, Israel etc) 


Clearly there is a racial and religious factor here and of course both matter in today’s world

Hypocrites

I have yet to read anywhere that a Rabbi in America condemning the vile declaration of Trump on Easter 


Israel’s propaganda is full of hollow declarations about being the only nation in the ME that supports humanity and values the  dignity of life in the ME


Yet not one fucking peep from a

Rabbi here in America or anywhere in the world with a statement of condemnation of Trump’s declaration to destroy the Iranian civilization !!!


Apparently the lives of innocent Iranians don’t matter to Rabbi’s in America and around the world

Greg/BLM

Always Loyal …. Why??

 I am not aware of any country on Earth that was willing to invade America  on behalf of Black Americans from Slavery and Racial Oppression in America 


We have encountered for centuries in America every iteration of endless discrimination and diminishment 


Yet Black Americans have never betrayed America since our entry into this hemisphere 


America has gone to war with :


Indigenous Peoples,England, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Italy, Korea , Vietnam , Hungary , Romania, Bulgaria , Iran, Iraq, and others 


Yet in 2026 there is a War against DEI aka Black Folks
