Is the U.S. Government murdering Americans? And are they following the law?

Does the U.S. government have to follow the law? Or is that just for the American Citizens? The short answer is it's apparent they don't have to. One of the primary responsibilities of our government is to protect and preserve our safety, and freedom from harm. Article IV section four of the U.S.Constitution requires the United States to protect each state from invasion and secure our borders. We all know they don't. Ask yourself; isn't the government a co-conspirator, acting in concert in killing thousands of Americans each year? Think about it and try and connect the dots. Most of these Americans are victims and dying of Fentanyl. They are between the ages of 18 and 45 years old. The outcome is over 100,000 - 140,000 deaths per year and climbing due to the negligence of our govern...

Forest Park, a Perpetual Gift from a Dead City

by Gregory Bresiger This article was written some two years ago by a former Kew Gardens resident, who left New York because increasing crime on the subways frightened his family. Our beloved Forest Park, which is just outside my home on Metropolitan Avenue in Kew Gardens, is a park with a remarkable history. It goes from central Queens, where I live, several miles to the Brooklyn/Queens border. This gorgeous woodland, which turned 126 this summer, has a long and storied history.  The park was the dream of the city of Brooklyn officials who wanted to provide relief to their overstressed big city residents, but they were not New Yorkers. The park was planned by people in a long-gone city, the city of Brooklyn. They’re forgotten, but the gift they gave us continues and should never be forg...
