Mission Statement: The Freeman Project is a musical exploration of life in the USA today. We acknowledge that liberty is a fundamental necessity for exploring our existence. The fact that all power rightly belongs to the individual does not deter the power elites attempts to control everything and everyone. It is only by embracing our individual power and rejecting central control that we can explore this world as we see fit and evolve. All change comes from within the individual and subsequently manifested in the world. Without the freedom to make mistakes and learn from them our evolution is greatly impeded.
Aggression Statment: We as a people must reject the notion that aggression is ever an acceptable solution to our problems. It is never acceptable for individuals, local, state, or federal governments to use aggression. Problem solving should be done through love, truth, compassion and understanding. If the state assumes the authority to use aggression when it's interests are threatened it can be used as justification for individuals to do the same. Aggression should never be mistaken for Defense and visa-versa. Defense is the proper and just reaction to aggression.
This the common definition of agression:
1. The action of a state in violating by force the rights of another state, particularly its territorial rights; an unprovoked offensive, attack, invasion, or the like: The army is prepared to stop any foreign aggression. 2. any offensive action, attack, or procedure; an inroad or encroachment: an aggression upon one's rights. 3. the practice of making assaults or attacks; offensive action in general.
Liars and Fools
Make a little sunshine every little bit is helpful And we really need it that’s for sure If you make the world smile and don’t stop pushing for it Soon or later you will pass it on
Laugh a little harder every little bit is helpful Every time you laugh you patch some darkness of a soul When these times of trouble scream for dark solutions. Nothing could be further from our minds.
We were meant for more than comfort and our toys When there’s nothing left to prove then there’s nothing left to do *
We stand for so much more than empty heroes Hand and hand we’ve walked through heavens gates before
In this plan there’s nothing really stopping us from throwing out the liars and the fools Except that maybe Id be out there too
Deep inside the stillness quite of the desert plain faced with our existence we can see just who we are childish aspirations calm and clear and peering up Daddy will hold me one more time. ** Can this cup just up and pass us by?
In this world of broken dreams we pass right through it Hand and hand we’ll walked through heavens gates again In his plan there’s nothing really stopping him from throwing out the liars and the fools Except that maybe Id be out there too
* This experience is not to be taken lightly, Its temporary and ultimately important The accumulation of wealth is driven by the desire to prove ones worth and fear of the future. Once you are confident of your place in existence, proof is no longer necessary and fear melts away leaving you free to work on the important things in life, evolution of the soul.
** in quite we are forced to confront our mortality. We intuitively know that life is fleeting and our time here will be judged. So we need to put aside childish aspirations and pursue the only important task at hand, our exit from this world into the next.

World of Illusion
Don't tell me how to think and I wont tell you where to stick it.
I'm not buying that you care for the weak and down trotted masses
Don't tell me where to go when you can tell me how to get there Everybody knows you treat us like were sheeple not people, cattle not men...
We're living in a world of illusion held together by our common beliefs we're told what to think and we believe it ….... we're afraid be free
They want you to do just what they want you to do no descent, no reason, no thought of your own. We're living in a world of illusion. : : ; Don't tell me how to feel this world you've made it isn't real time and time again were told our freedom is granted by people as long as we act as their dutiful slaves.
tax the rich and screw the poor, tell them that there ain't no more work them hard until they die. keep them fighting over lies Teach them how to be afraid. Tell them there's no other way Take their guns and dignity. profits out weigh liberty. Find the truth, change your life, light the way back home
were living in a world of illusion held together by our common beliefs don't buy the Establishments solution….... be brave and be free
Stand up and do what you've always known you should do
don't believe the TV liberty starts with you

Guns
Responsible gun owners can and do prevent mass shootings from occurring and escalating.
A 1997 high school shooting in Pearl, Miss., was halted by the school's vice principal after he retrieved the Colt .45 he kept in his truck. A 1998 middle school shooting ended when a man living next door heard gunfire and apprehended the shooter with his shotgun. A 2002 terrorist attack at an Israeli school was quickly stopped by an armed teacher and a school guard. A 2002 law school shooting in Grundy, Va., came to an abrupt conclusion when students carrying firearms confronted the shooter. A 2007 mall shooting in Ogden, Utah, ended when an armed off-duty police officer intervened. A 2009 workplace shooting in Houston, Texas, was halted by two coworkers who carried concealed handguns. A 2012 church shooting in Aurora, Colo., was stopped by a member of the congregation carrying a gun. At the recent mall shooting in Portland, Ore., the gunman took his own life minutes after being confronted by a shopper carrying a concealed weapon.
For several years after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, gun prohibitionists blocked pilots from carrying firearms. But after it became undeniable that guns are an essential line of defense against hijackers and other terrorists when the lives of innocent passengers are at stake, Congress finally passed legislation allowing it. It's time to take the same approach with teachers, school administrators, and security guards, who should be allowed to carry the tools necessary to protect the students in their care. It's time to put an end to gun-free zones and make it much easier for responsible adults to arm, train, and protect themselves and the people they love from the violent criminals who seek to harm them. "You can't depend on somebody else to take care of your own life for you," Wrights said. "It's too precious to put it into the hands of somebody else, particularly when the seconds count."
Newtown, Conn. School shooting
We as a people must reject the notion that aggression is ever an acceptable solution to our problems. It is never acceptable for individuals, local, state, or federal governments to use aggression. Problem solving should be done through love, truth, compassion and understanding. If the state assumes the authority to use aggression when it's interests are threatened it is a very small jump for a threatened individual to do the same. Peace and love always! God bless these people in their time of need.
