SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.

A very happy holiday season to everyone. I am going to attempt, now that we are at the beginning of the New Year, to facilitate a clearing process for a knot of energy that has been coming up lately. It is rather sensationalistic ‘acting out’ experiences that have been happening.

There have been two skits performed in my presence … one a few years ago, on the grounds of a Christian religious retreat center. I was the only person to observe the performance, so at the time I thought it might have to do with me.

I was there for a get-together to discuss sacred scripture. I was the first person to arrive. In the seat that I usually sat in at that outdoor place was sitting a trans person in a very sexual outfit … with zebra-patterned spandex tights and stiletto high heels and so forth ,… very sexual in demeanor.

Next to the trans person was what I have come to term a ‘chaperone’ … which was an older woman, much shorter … maybe a foot and a half or more shorter than the trans person. The chaperone was sitting there very meekly. She was a very fragile-looking person who apparently was the person to protect the trans person from being raped, I am guessing?

Leaving, off on the side, was what seemed to be a movie personality who may have been putting together the skit. So there were three people.

The trans person got up from the seat and sauntered past me, in the direction of the director. The trans person’s chaperone accompanied her.

The feeling that I got was one of extreme physical danger to me … a feeling of hatred welling up and exuding outward towards me, as if physical attack were planned for me.

That was some years ago. I would not bring it up to you again now if it were not for the fact that the same tableau has come up again. It was only a while ago … maybe a month ago. I was going from the parking lot of a church, across the grounds of the church, and towards the church. I noticed a trans person.

It was right before the service. It was very evident the trans person was there because their garb stood out so much. They were wearing hip boots with heels, but not stiletto heels … more like comfortable, walking heels.

They were wearing a tube dress that ended just at the bottom of their torso, so it exposed a length of leg from the bottom of their torso to the beginning of the hip boot. And so the look was very sexual … very unusual. It attracted attention.

Then I went into the church, past the people, and I sat down. As the people filed in, this trans person sat down directly in front of me, near the back of the church.

Next to this trans person was sitting another chaperone …. it was another very short, meek-looking, very fragile-looking older woman … more like a grandmother … who was, I think, in the role once more of a chaperone.

But there was one more figure. It was once more a tableau of three. Standing against the wall, right next to me, was a nun in the type of habit that used to be worn when I was in grade school.

So there were three people: The trans person, the chaperone, and the guarding nun.

You could say I was targeted by the Dark. I am beginning to get  the feeling that I was targeted by some person who is putting together skits or performances, and has something that they want to tell me. But the question is: What is that thing that they want to tell me? … because they were not using words. No words were conveyed.

In this second instance, as the trans person got up at the end of the service to leave, I saw the trans person direct a slanting look at me that was also full of hatred … full of the desire to injure. And I felt that I had to be ready, on the spur of the moment, to protect my physical body from harm.

Fortunately nothing happened. It was just a look, as in the prior skit. But yet there was this heightened feeling of physical danger directly before me.

In my case, because I am a martial artist, it concerned me because in the pews, the way that people sit in the church, they are within the ‘ma’. They are too close together to be a safe distance between two physical combatants … two people who are engaged in combat.

The trans person had longer arms than I, and so therefore the danger was my own. With a punch, that person could reach me, and I could not reach them. Do you understand? It is called ‘invasion of ma’ in the martial arts. ‘Ma’ is the distance that is safe; it is about a yard apart. For people who are very good martial artists, the ‘ma’ is about five feet apart.

So anyway, I have to piece together the situation. Someone told me, on the psychic plane, that it is a way of expressing something that does not involve speaking to the person to whom the message is intended to be conveyed.

It could be a way of trying to resolve issues. For instance, it might be classed with creative writing, or with writing of poetry, or with drawing or painting pictures, or telling stories, as one of the ways that people use to resolve ongoing issues in their lives.

It could be these people who have been doing these skits are performing them for me on behalf of someone else who has an issue that he or she is trying to resolve. And so I am going to give it my best effort here.

I feel that there are issues around gender identification that have to do with fear of the opposite sex … fear of intimacy with the opposite sex … and concerns about competition … male-male competition, female-female competition, male-female competition, and female-male competition.

I am going to try to explain how this feels symbolically to me as a woman. It feels to me that each of the people who play the trans role in both of these skits has a feeling of deep hatred towards women.

From this I would derive that the person who put together the plays is intending to convey that he or she has a deep hatred of women.

And also I would say … because of the number of people set against me (or so it seems) in both of these skits … the woman (I, for instance) must be conceived of as incredibly powerful … as if two or three people are needed to prevent harm to the trans person.

So what I am getting is that the originator of the skits must feel hatred of women, and also fear of women, with the notion that they have great power … that they are capable of great power and that they need to be subdued by a number of people acting together.

So that is one thing. Then I have the chaperone. In both instances I have the chaperone. The chaperone seems to me to represent the disrespect that the originator of the skits has towards women … that he or she conceives the role he or she has with regard to women to be to relate to them as feeble, small, physically ineffectual people who could easily be conquered and killed. That is what I get … that in each instance, the trans person has so much hatred of women that he could easily injure or kill the chaperone who is there in some kind of socially acceptable role … perhaps as a spoof … perhaps to prevent the men in the congregation from raping the trans person, or to prevent me from approaching the trans person, who may be perceived as being infinitely desirable?

I do not know how I am doing with this! I am just coming up with this on the fly. You will have to forgive me.

So then in the second instance, we have the nun standing in the aisle, ready to reprimand me. First of all, I would like to make it clear that it is easy to buy these types of religious regalia online. And so it is possible, I think, that spoofs are being performed with religious regalia purchased online … maybe being performed by people in the movie industry … and that the intention might be to persuade the pastors at churches that the religious authority … the religious establishment. .. is behind the performances that are being given.

In other words, it could be that there is ‘false authority’ there, inspired by religious regalia that are purchased, and not actually condoned by the religious in question.

So this is the question: Was the nun really a nun, or was this habit purchased online? I cannot answer the question!

Let’s say that a nun was persuaded to be there, under the pretext that … say …  I am a very dangerous person, and that the trans person … who was born a man, and who might have fighting ability, for all I know, and who seems to hate me, might have displaced or substituted me as the person who does the hating … and that the nun may have become convinced of this … and that she was standing there to preserve decorum in case I should have a verbal outburst with regard to the trans person?

If I walked into that church with that person’s clothes on, what would happen? If I tried to walk up and get communion in a Christian church in that outfit? I am just asking: Could I get communion?

So what are the rules to do with men and women regarding this? Is trans so popular that they can get away with anything? And I cannot, right? Why is this?

Who really needs protecting in this situation? The women need protecting, I feel. There is a great deal of hatred there.

Now let’s suppose that the woman who is in the religious regalia is actually just an actress. The cameras are rolling for the religious service. She is there to prevent me from injuring this person. And then if I put up a fuss … which would be far from anything I would ever do … then she would restrain me; and they would have some skit that they would be performing under the circumstances.

So let’s see: We have got the trans person, the physical danger to me, the physical danger to the chaperone. Then we have, in the second instance, the purported nun. We do not know if this is true or not true. The cameras are rolling for the church service. So it could be an intention to embarrass me in public.

But nothing happened.

If it is just an actor, it could be an intent to deceive me into thinking that the church is behind this performance … that there is true authority there. If the authority is needed in order to put on this performance, it must be considered that I am a very dangerous person, as a woman.

Something is up there.

We have an issue right now, with regard to hatred of women. How can I explain it?

In this stage production, two women and a trans person are set against one woman … me. That setting of the two women against another woman is a way of expressing female-female competition. It divides the ranks of women so that the trans person can attack the one woman and prevent the one woman from getting solidarity or support from other women. That is one thing.

The trans person is also intruding on the male-female prospects of the women in the congregation, because trans people also look for the romantic intention of male members of the congregation. So the trans person is also in competition with the female members of the congregation, in a female- female competition way.

A trans person who is involved in a sexual encounter with a man who is not trans … if the trans person behaves in the encounter in a receptive manner (as if he were female), he is, I feel, expressing a desire not to be hated by men … not to be competing with men. In other words, he is expressing a fear of the competitiveness of men, and a desire to have men love him.

I find there are MSM (men who have sex with men) relationships in which men bond. And there are also MSM encounters in which there is no bonding. And these chance encounters … these very quick encounters … are the trouble that comes up in social relationships.

That is because there is a disease called HIV that is being transmitted when there are lots of partners … many, many partners … maybe as many as 500 partners over the course of a number of years, when a person, whether trans or simply what is called ‘queer’ these days, is ‘on the circuit’ and very sexually active. And so, HIV is transmitted by one person to 500 people, let’s say.

Now suppose this is in a church situation. Let’s say, in the trans situation, that the trans person is infecting the men in the congregation with HIV.

Let’s say these men have wives. And the men infect their wives with HIV. And the women have children.

Infants to whom HIV is passed on by the mother, as I understand it, only live a year or two.

Now considering the scenario where gay men … or trans people … are passing on HIV to the entire congregation … I think it would take about 10 years for the entire sexually active congregation to be infected.

What will happen then is there will be no more children in the congregation … no viable offspring.

So we have to look at this as a symbol of what is going down in society as a whole. Unless there is a vaccine that prevents HIV from being fatal to newborns, then in the course of the next generation there will be a dramatic reduction in the number of viable births on Earth. The human population of the planet will greatly decline.

This will be good for Earth. I am sure it will not be the end of life on Earth for humankind. But I think that the numbers of human beings will create a more sustainable planet after that. We have that to look forward to.

We also have a need to help quell vigilante efforts and violence on the part of those who  feel that certain persons are responsible for what is really going to be transpiring through God’s will … God’s will for Earth.

Getting back to this trans issue, I have my own concerns about it, because it is unfolding very slowly before me, through the will of someone who directs these actors, and who will not talk to me, and who apparently feels that the action of the actors is conveying a message that is patently clear.

I do not know what the message is, exactly. I can only speak to these various things that I feel, like …

  • the hatred of the actors. I do not know why they hate me. I do not know if it s me or a lot of different people;
  • the need of the trans person for support from women who will protect the trans person;
  • possibly the assuming of false authority roles … because it is hard for me to believe that a church would support such a performance on church grounds.

I might be wrong; it might be emanating directly from the authority of these churches. I do not know.

But if it is, then I feel it is through a misunderstanding regarding the need for women to be protected by men, and not physically assaulted by them, not raped by them, not treated disrespectfully by them, not verbally abused by men.

None of these are roles for men with regard to women in a Christian church. I think that is clear. It ought to be clear.

We are clearing through this Atlantean knot during Winter Solstice, and during the holiday season. With the coming of the New Year we are coming into a melding of the highest energies of men and women, so that in New Life on New Earth men and women can support each other, and create for Earth the vision of Christ consciousness.

We cannot do this by putting each other down, and warring with each other, and competing with each other. We have to achieve a mutual respect. What children we may produce who can survive early childhood we have to nurture and protect from that virus. We have to do our best.

I feel there will be children who are resistant to the virus. And if there are not, then there will be pockets of life on Earth where the virus never touches. There will be a New Age.

So, that is what I am thinking. Psychologists will probably read this and think: Aw, she is oversensitive. Or: She thinks this; she thinks that.

What can I say? That is what I think. That is what I feel..

And you know, if somebody comes up with a silent skit in front of you, I do not really know what to say, because it could be the intent is deadly. It seems like that to me.

This is not the only time that very odd skits have been performed in front of me. There are actors here … there are people here who are not good with words.

I think first of all, preserve your physical safety. That is the very first thing.

And if there is a setting in which physical violence can be restrained, and you can speak to these people and find out what is going on, why then, so much the better!

If not, then this video may stimulate discussion on the topic, because the topic is ever so weird.

I will add one or two more things, just so that you can get a notion of the scope of the situation.

I remember a few years ago I was in Malibu Creek State Park. Standing in front of me, facing away, were a number of people dressed in Franciscan habits. I got a feeling just then that I was in danger and that this was an acting troupe.

I went online and looked up their particular outfits. It turned out they were available for sale online.

There is no way of knowing whether this was true authority of the Christian church standing in front of me … or just actors. The more so because, across the road at the National Park Headquarters at King Gillette Ranch, there are a lot of acting troupes and movie operations going on. That lends credence to the notion that it may have been an acting troupe.

Here is another instance: A few years ago I was walking out of my local Post Office. In front of me was a young man, maybe six feet tall, or nearly so, and approaching was a trans person, maybe 5 feet seven inches, and who had on black makeup to make that person look African American.

He was carrying behind him two old-fashioned baby carriages on a train of rope or chain. In one of those was a lap dog.

This trans person was dressed in kind of a garish outfit, a pants dress, and was wearing on their buttocks what looked like large-sized potato salad containers, taped on.

I was afraid to stay They were obstructing my path, and I was afraid to stay and talk, because the situation was so outlandish to me that I could not figure any good would come of it.

That is generally my reaction to these acting skits that keep unfolding in front of me. It seems like there is a madman behind it, you know?

Maybe there is something cogent there. But it seems to me as if Soul wounding is unfolding in front of me … Soul wounding of a nature too dark and deep for me to fathom. I do not know what to say.

Usually I do the Buddhist prayer, which is God’s blessing upon all beings. Happiness to all beings. May they all have a roof over their heads. May they all have plenty to eat … That kind of thing.

That takes it out of the personal realm, and into the Infinite. God’s will, not my will. May God figure out what this is about, because it is completely beyond me.

That is all for now.

God bless you all,
And keep you safe,
And be with you
Through all your days.

And may this New Year bring forth for you all the wonders of God’s creation; all of your Ascension gifts; all of your Ascension abilities; and a chance to be the Light for all humankind.

In love, light and joy
This is Alice B. Clagett.
I Am of the Stars … and so are you!

Libertarianism: The New Look of America . by Alice B. Clagett *

I am making this blog into a video series. I am slowly adding the videos to this blog.

Dear Ones,

INTRODUCTION: SIGNS OF ECONOMIC STRESSORS IN THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

First I have for you three signs of economic stressors in the United States Federal Government that I noticed …

1. ECONOMIC STRESSORS THAT MAY LEAD TO DECENTRALIZATION OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT          top

I have some thoughts on the state of the nation. Intuitively, I sense economic stressors that may gradually lead to our Federal government taking a lesser role in the governance of the United States, compared to the role of regional alliances of states.

Just to put this into perspective, this might be more of a Libertarian notion as a way of the ruling of the United States, still within the plan of our democracy, but rather different in emphasis from what we have known for a long time as the Democratic / Republican dichotomy.

All this time, Greenpeace and Libertarianism have been on our ballots, so we know they are a part of our democratic process. Only the look and feel of them is quite different, and it may cause us to wonder what is happening in the coming years.

In the coming times, I see the Federal government continuing to provide military defense, social security payments, and leadership in foreign affairs. I also see states taking more initiative in regard to economics for their regions.

As to trade, I see future reliance on established railroad routes and water routes such as the Mississippi River. I anticipate that, should there be a gradual lessening of Federal power, then there might be more trade within an economic region, and less trade globally and nationally.

As to finance, I see potential reliance on barter, with care not to place our financial assets in overseas locations. Local-employment-based credit unions may come into favor as regional savings repositories.

There may be more reliance on those economic sectors that hold strong during recessions … such as locally grown food, locally obtainable building materials, and water supplies not piped in over long distances.

As to economic stressors, I suggest the overarching stressor of the COVID-19 pandemic, the slowly building economic impact of the HIV pandemic, and stress of regional aridity due to long-distance water transport costs,

A socially disruptive stressor is handheld psychosis, which may lead to chaotic events such as mass murders and actions by public utilities, local law enforcement, and the military regarding perceived dangers that do not truly exist. This might precipitate social unrest, especially in regions of the United States pinpointed by the Jade Helm exercises.

2. CAVEATS REGARDING POSSIBLE LOCI OF SOCIAL UNREST          top

In United States cities, the high cost of housing and the increasing phenomenon of homelessness may lead to social unrest and attempted land grabs through anarchist behavior; this is something for which, I feel, every large city mayor and every state government ought to have on hand emergency action plans.

For states in arid regions, emergency anti-anarchist plans ought, I feel, to highlight security of water transport systems. Electrical grids, I feel, might also be an anarchist target.

I have a few examples for you, state by state …

In California, I see a rekindling of the Latin American ideal of revolutionary ardor, with possible attempts by undocumented workers … or documented workers fleeing from crimes in their homelands under false names. These energies might, for instance, take the form of faking murders of homeowners under pretense of COVID deaths. The intent might be a fast flip of real estate for profit for a revolutionary cause. Or such an attempt might be made so as to charge revolutionaries rent on homes acquired through COVID murder. Such murders might take place under the aegis of religious righteousness … or what I might term leftwing terrorism.

In others of the United States, there may be similar energies of fake COVID deaths to espouse other causes, such as black militance, white supremacy, and so on.

In Utah, there might be a Mormon separatist energy because of the seditionist history I have read took place with the founder of Mormonism. (I read that in Wikipedia.)

In Florida, there might be attempts on political power by drug lords from countries to the south. And so on.

We people in large United States cities can be a big help in creating peaceful environments for our children by offering our law enforcement departments volunteer help through neighborhood watch programs.

3. ON MAINTAINING A POSITIVE ATTITUDE IN THE FACE OF CHANGE          top

It seems unlikely to me that anything would happen in a moment; rather I feel that the United States might very slowly tend towards a model of government more akin to the state by state model of our early years as a nation. We may find, in future, that traveling from one state to the next is a refreshingly new experience. Not everyone may be watching the same thing on television every night anymore; there may be less airline flights from here to there; and so the natural flavor and local color of each region of the United States may become more striking to the casual tourist.

In addition, it may be that some regions of the United States may be more perilous (that is, more dangerous) for tourist travel, as was the case for travelers in the early years of our nation.

I realize the prospect of change can be unsettling. It is good to keep in mind that changes such as those spoken of … if, indeed, change there be … would in all likelihood take place by slow stages, over the course of the next century or two. Thus I feel certain there would be plenty of time to make our plans and find our footing in the new.

4. POSSIBLE FUTURE UNITED STATES ECONOMIC REGIONS AND TRADE REGIONS          top

This section has a series of maps that I have adapted to show possible United States economic regions and trade regions of the centuries that are to come. I would be interested in your comments regarding this intriguing topic of the eventual possibility that the United States government might become less centralized, and more imbued with local flavor and with the strong spirit of our local communities.

HIV-AIDS Pandemic Economic Stressor 1: One Eastern Economic Region Including the Southern States and the Eastern Seaboard

The first map looks like this …

You can see a topographical map of the United States that also shows the aridity … the rainfall. States that are green have more rainfall; states that are yellow, less; and states that are red, very little rainfall. Then I have drawn a white line showing an economic region that includes the Eastern Seaboard and the Southern states.

These states are very much affected right now … more so than the other states …  by the HIV and AIDS pandemic. And my thought was that that might act as a stressor that would consolidate that group of states into an economic region …

HIV-AIDS Pandemic Economic Stressor 2: An Eastern Seaboard Economic Region and a Southern Economic Region

This map encompasses the same general region as the prior map, but it is divided into two economic regions. To the right is the Eastern Seaboard, and to the bottom left, the Southern states. There is a yellow line between the two economic regions  …

So that would be two regions with their own special, local flavor, their own trade agreements; and maybe closely aligned with inter-region trade agreements.

Western Economic and Cultural Stressors: Northwest Economic Region and California Central Valley Economic Region

The below map deals with the West Coast. It shows two economic regions set apart from the rest of the United States with white lines. The upper one is the Northwest Economic Region, and the lower one is the California Central Valley Economic Region …

Jade Helm Stressors: A Utah-Colorado Trade Region; a Texas Trade Region; a Mexican Trade Corridor; and a Florida-Caribbean Trade Corridor

This is an interesting map. The Description is below the image …

Clagett, 6 December 2019, CC BY-SA 4.0 … DESCRIPTION: Circled in yellow are two possible regions that might secede from the Union, but with which reciprocal trade agreements might be negotiated. Topmost is a Utah-Colorado Trade Region (which might be divided into two separate areas based on dominant religion). Lower and to the right is a Texas Trade Region comprising what is now eastern, central, and northern Texas. Then there are two southern regions delineated in white. These are regions that might lean favorably towards alliance with Mexico, but with which we might anticipate establishing reciprocal trade agreements. To the left is a Mexican Trade Corridor comprising California from Los Angeles and to the south; the lower halves of Arizona and New Mexico, and the southwestern part of Texas. To the right is the state of Florida, which might lean favorably toward the Caribbean countries, but with which we might anticipate establishing reciprocal trade agreements; this I term the Florida-Caribbean Trade Corridor … CREDIT: The topographic map is “USA topo en.jpg” [USA Topographical Map], from Wikimedia Commons … https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:USA_topo_en.jpg … CC BY-SA 3.0 Unported

As to the Utah-Colorado Trade Region: In Utah, the Mormon faith is very strong. And in Colorado, the Christian faith is very strong. I thought that those two areas of this economic region might pull separately apart, possibly along religious lines.

Southwestern Arid Region: Small Town and Native American Reservation Citadels

This area of the country is very, very arid. One can tell that by the color. I have cordoned off this entire arid zone as an area where Native Americans may establish reservation ‘citadels’ or ‘city towns’ that might act as trading posts for the area, for instance. I consider that they would become more like ‘city states’ if transportation slows down in the United States, and especially in that area, over the centuries.

Central Breadbasket Economic Region

On this map, the area in question is rather green. There is a little yellow, so that part is a little more arid land. It comprises the United States to the west and to the south of the Great Lakes. It includes most of the Mississippi River Valley as well. It looks like this …

We can anticipate that, if this continues to be a breadbasket area, it could provide food for other economic regions in the United States; and therefore, we would need to maintain some form of transportation to the south and to the east of the Central Breadbasket Region. The question would be whether transportation might be maintained across that vast, arid expanse to the west of the Breadbasket; or whether the Western Seaboard would need to grow its own foodstuffs as transportation became less prevalent.

Possible Future Capital Cities of the United States

Here is the last section, and an interesting one. I have for you three possibilities labeled 0, 1 and 2. The first is Washington, D.C., numbered ‘0’, because that is where the capital of the United States is right now.

Next is Lancaster, Pennsylvania, labeled ‘1’. Long ago, our nation’s capital was Lancaster; so I thought, perhaps one day our capital will be there once more.

And the last is Saint Louis, Missouri, labeled ‘2’. Saint Louis is right in the middle of the Breadbasket. I suggested Saint Louis as the second possibility because the location would be more centralized, and it might pull the other regions together.

Clagett, 6 December 2019, CC BY-SA 4.0 … DESCRIPTION: The current capital of the United States is Washington DC (numbered ‘0’ on the map). Because of the AIDS crisis in Washington DC, and because our nation’s capital was once Lancaster PA, I suggest eventual relocation of the Capital back to Lancaster (numbered ‘1’ on the map). Farther out in time, it may be that Saint Louis, MO (labeled ‘2’) would prove a good location for our nation’s capital … CREDIT: The topographic map is “USA topo en.jpg” [USA Topographical Map], from Wikimedia Commons … https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:USA_topo_en.jpg … CC BY-SA 3.0 Unported

5. REGIONAL PACTS NOW IN PLACE         top

In the event of decentralization here in the United States, I feel the United States might expect to enjoy three power blocks along geographic lines of the three COVID pacts now in place amongst states in the Eastern States, the Midwest, and the Western States …

6.4 CAVEATS FOR UNITED STATES DOMESTIC TOURISTS          top

It may become more difficult to travel from state to state; this may have to do with lack of availability of gasoline, or lack of availability of charging stations for electric cars.

United States tourists may find it less safe to travel to other states. Their lives may even be imperiled while staying in some small towns that are distant from their own residences.

There may be tampering on a local basis with criminal databases, combined with identity theft and synthetic identity fraud, so that a tourist to a small town in a distant state is fraudulently classed as a criminal, and then subjected to local laws whose flavor and whose meeting of criminal punishment differs greatly from those in the tourist’s home town.

For instance, in the visited town euthanasia of senior citizens might be legal. The ‘captured’ tourist might be legally executed on a charge of senile dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. That charge could be made to stick through unrelated, criminal local people swearing on oath that the person is their spouse, swearing that the age is elderly, stating that the person has no money or means of earning it. Then the tourist might be killed and his or her money divvied up amongst the judge and the perjuring criminal.

Other instances: Blue laws and the penalties for child molestation, and the enforcement of these laws differ greatly from state to state. It is easy to assume that what ‘flies’ in one’s own state will ‘fly’ in the tourist town. Then, quick as a whip, a person might find himself behind bars and far from home, and subject to whatever local scam will fleece him of his money.

Another instance: Drug possession laws differ greatly from state to state. The scenario is the same as for Blue laws.

Drug lords may be in possession of the town, as was the case with Baltimore, Maryland, in recent years. If so, anything goes. Best not to set foot there. It is possible that local law enforcement and local court systems in towns ‘captured’ by drug lords might function in ways unexpected by a tourist, because of the threat of death for themselves and their families, and also because of financial inducements by drug lords. In other words, the tourist’s life might be worth a nickel. Maybe less.

A local tradition of bribery of officials is a consideration for tourists. This horse kicks two ways: You might be jailed if you do not bribe; or you might be fined for attempting to bribe. I am at a loss for words here.

Other instances: Homelessness may be considered a cause for euthanasia without court trial. This stance might be set in place by barring a tourist from local motels and hotels, then accosting him or her while asleep in their car.

Suppose a local gas fill-up were to result in a car breakdown 10 miles away, say, in the desert. Suppose the gas station owner had a group of related men who went out to scavenge vehicle parts, wallet and credit cards of the stranded car owner, and leave his bones beneath a Joshua tree.

[In terms of unexpected services rendered, I have encountered a case a little like that here in Los Angeles, where an acupuncturist demanded to see the drivers license after treatment, as a prerequisite to payment for services rendered. I intuited that the health care practitioner has an expensive addiction, and had been sending round family members to the addresses on the drivers licenses of her clients to burglarize the homes to help finance her habit. To prevent the victims from returning … in other words, to ensure a fresh group of people to be burgled … the acupuncturist set the electric needle settings too high, so that her clients received muscle-stunning electric shocks from the needles.]

The tourist’s sanity may be placed in doubt through false testimony by local mail-order psychologists also claiming at the local police station to be the ‘spouse’. This may be a game with many innings.

I intuit that local sheriffs and judges place more weight on testimony of their friends and neighbors than they do on the testimony of strangers. Where you visit, if you travel alone, may have crime gangs that, in cahoots with a sheriff or law enforcement officer, railroading tourists with intent to gain more tourist dollars. This may be more likely in low per capita towns.

There may be a local tradition of kangaroo courts that convict a tourist of this or that without his or her presence in the courtroom. There may be other legal irregularities, such as a crooked judge who holds a kangaroo court session on a Sunday, with written judgment conveyed, but with no online record of a court case. The kangaroo court paper of the crooked judge might be used to ‘capture’ and shake down the tourist. There is a danger of legal murder by euthanasia after the shake down, so as to prevent the tourist from taking legal action against the offending parties after changing the venue to their own home town.

In other words, the law may not be on your side, or it may not take the stance you expect it to take, when you travel to another state. This may become increasingly true with time, that towns in states other than one’s own may prove lethally unfriendly to tourists.

Dear Ones,

MISLEADING NATURE OF CDC HIV DATA

Over the years I have written quite a few blogs on the HIV / AIDS global pandemic. Chicken that I am, I feel I have failed to convey my feeling that the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) is releasing data about the pandemic that greatly misrepresent the difficulties that lie before us as a nation. Perhaps this misrepresentation is intentional; perhaps it is political in nature … and perhaps not. Who can say?

The crux of the matter is that the data the CDC typically presents to the public have to do with disease ‘incidence’ rather than disease ‘prevalence’ or ‘lifetime risk’.

‘INCIDENCE’ of HIV / AIDS

As I understand it, disease ‘incidence’ has to do with how many new cases will be diagnosed next year, or the following year. These data are important to medical doctors, so that they can have sufficient medications on hand for the coming year.

‘PREVALENCE’ or ‘LIFETIME RISK’ of HIV / AIDS

‘Prevalence’, or ‘lifetime risk’ offers data on the likelihood that we and our families will contract HIV / AIDS during our lifetime. These are the data that I feel are hard to find in the CDC documents. Yet these are the data that help us plan for our families’ future.

How Family Wealth Planning for Future Generations Is Affected by HIV Prevalence

For instance, if our children, according to ‘lifetime risk’ data, are likely to contract HIV / AIDS in their lifetime, then we might ask: At what age are they likely to contract the disease?

If they contract it in early childhood, from what I have read, it is apparently likely they will die from it at a young age.

If they contract the disease at about the age of puberty, from what I have read, it is likely they will be unable to bear offspring that live more than a few years.

If our children contract the disease while their children are young, then apparently the risk is high that their young children will contract the disease from their parents through suckling milk, or transmission of bodily fluids while the family has bouts of cold or flu, or through childhood play.

Whether or not our children will contract the disease before they bear children is, I feel, very important to each family’s planning for the future. If there are no grandchildren, then that will make a big difference in the wealth that must be set aside for future generations. In addition, health care costs and the economic impact of sick leave downtime for our infected children and grandchildren is a wealth planning consideration.

How May We Instill Hope in Our Families, Even Though They May Have HIV?

If the lifetime risk of contracting HIV / AIDS is high, either because of lifestyle choices, or because of race or ethnicity, or because of the city or state or region of the United States in which we live, then now would be the time to plan with our children and grandchildren for a future that may involve infection.

Our families need to have some hope to live for, even though they may be infected.

I will say that, in my opinion, the CDC does a great job of glossing over the downside, and providing the upside of life with HIV / AIDS. So families can go to their site to learn that life with HIV is no big deal in the United States, any more.

By that is meant, I feel, that for those who are able to tolerate the drug regimens that have been developed, the prospect of a long and productive life is good. And that is something that might offer hope to our children: They may find that they, or their friends, contract the disease.

Careers Despite HIV. Maybe they may not be able to have families of their own, but they can look forward to fulfilling careers, and maybe good health for quite a long time.

Continuing to Work Despite Blindness. I note that, as of 2001 10-20% of people worldwide who had AIDS were becoming blind in one or both eyes …

Thus, as a nation, we must retool as many industries as possible so that our eyesight-impaired HIV-positive children can continue on with their careers even should they have low vision.
RECENT CDC FIGURES ON HIV LIFETIME RISK

Today I found a pretty good pdf file offered by the CDC, that presents lifetime risk and also age-conditional risk by race and ethnicity, gender, and state. The data are from 2009-2013 …

Link: “Lifetime Risk of a Diagnosis of HIV Infection in the United States,” by Kristen L. Hess, PhD, MPH, Xiaohong Hu, MS, Amy Lansky, PhD, MPH, Jonathan Mermin, MD, and H. Irene Hall, PhD, MPH, HHS Public Access Author Manuscript, Ann. Epidemiol. published in final edited form as: Ann Epidemiol. 2017 April ; 27(4): 238-243, doi:10.1016/j.annepidem.2017.02.003 … https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5524204/ ..

By clicking on the above pdf link you can download the document to your computer.

Of special note are the three tables at the end of the document.

Table 1. Lifetime Risk of HIV Diagnosis, by Sex, Race/Ethnicity, and Risk Group, United States

Gender Inequality in Testing for HIV / AIDS. I note the total lifetime risk for men is 1 in 68 people, and for women 1 in 253 people. I believe this has to do with gender inequality in testing for HIV / AIDS. I feel the perception in the medical community is that MSM men are at risk for HIV / AIDS, and so, I feel, doctors are more likely to test men than women.

As I have mentioned priorly, it could be that bisexual men who are dating or married to women and raising families are also at risk, and that their wives and families are at risk and fail to test for HIV – AIDS because they are uninformed about their boyfriends’ or husbands’ exposure to risk.

I would like to see equal gender testing for HIV / AIDS, especially among couples with children where the boyfriend or husband tests positive for HIV. Then the medical community might, a few years from now, reassess the total lifetime risk for women.

Lifetime Risk for Black Men Who Have Sex with Men. I note the lifetime risk of contracting HIV / AIDS is 1 in 2 men. The overall lifetime risk for men who have sex with men is 1 in 6 men. From this I feel that women who want to have families ought to ascertain, before becoming pregnant, whether the prospective fathers in fact prefer to have sex with men. I feel that societal expectations, especially amongst Christians, make it especially difficult for Christian men to disclose this bias to prospective wives.

Given this, I feel all women hoping to have children ask those men they want to be intimate with for HIV test results, keeping in mind that chastity for one month after the last sexual contact is necessary before tests such as Oraquick can provide relatively accurate results. The last I read in the fine print of the Oraquick package was that there was a 10 percent error in this type of saliva test.  HIV blood tests, while more expensive, are a good deal more accurate; they are the best the medical community can offer presently.

Table 2. Lifetime Risk of HIV Diagnosis, by State, United States

From this table, I note a big range of risks, state by state, and in the District of Columbia.

Great Disparity in Lifetime Risk, State by State. For instance, the lifetime risk in Maryland is 1 in 56 people. But the risk in Montana is 1 in 674 people. The other states are in between these two extremes, with Georgia and Florida on the very risky side, and Idaho and North Dakota on the ‘unrisky’ side.

The first thought along these lines, for families who are concerned about HIV infection, might be (and I agree it seems logical) to relocate to a state that has less lifetime risk of infection.

Possible Underreporting of Risk by States for Economic Reasons. Amongst the states, I feel it likely that there may be HIV / AIDS ‘underreporting’, and that this may have to do with the tourist trade, or perceived need to attract new business to one’s home state. If this is true, I hope lifetime risk reporting will become more accurate in the next few years, as our states owe it to their residents to offer accurate figures, so that families can take steps for disease prevention and health care.

Risk in Large Cities. I note the lifetime risk of HIV / AIDS is 1 in 17 people in the District of Columbia, which is the heart of one of our large metropolitan areas. In past blogs, I have asked for a breakdown of lifetime risk for our large cities, as the very high risk in the District of Columbia may in fact indicate high risk in other large United States cities as well.

Table 3. 10-Year Age-Conditional Risk (1 in n) of HIV Diagnosis Among HIV-Free Males and Females, Aged 20-50 Years, United States

Young Men Who Have Sex with Men Are at Greater Risk of New HIV Diagnosis. From these data I see that overall, it is four times more likely that men who have sex with men, and who are 20 years of age will get a new diagnosis of HIV than will men who have sex with men, and who are 50 years of age.

New HIV Diagnosis Risk for Young Men Who Have Sex with Men Varies Greatly by Race / Ethnicity. For black men who have sex with men, the risk of new diagnosis of HIV is 1 in 4 at age 20 and 1 in 26 at age 50. For Hispanic men who have sex with men, the figures are 1 in 13 at age 20, and 1 in 40 at age 50. For White men who have sex with men, the figures are 1 in 39 at age 20 and 1 in 79 at age 50.

New HIV Diagnosis Risk for People Who Inject Drugs is Much Less Than for Men Who Have Sex with Men. Also, I see that people who inject drugs and are 20 years of age are somewhat less likely to get a new diagnosis of HIV than people who are 50 years of age; and that the overall new diagnosis risk for people who inject drugs is, across the age spectrum, very much less than for men who have sex with men.

New HIV Diagnosis Risk for Young Women Who Inject Drugs Is Twice as Great as for Young Men. Overall, for men who inject drugs the new diagnosis risk is 1 in 220 at age 20, and 1 in 167 at age 50. For women who inject drugs the new diagnosis risk is 1 in 108 at age 20 and 1 in 112 at age 50. That would mean that amongst people who inject drugs, women 20 years of age are about twice as likely to get a new HIV diagnosis as are men that age.

Can We Extrapolate That HIV Diagnosis Risk for Young Women is Twice as Great as That for Young Men? As both men and women who inject drugs know they are at risk, it seems to me fair to assume they are testing for HIV in a gender equal way. Thus the figures for new diagnosis risk for men and women who inject drugs might help provide an answer regarding the true new diagnosis risk for women who fail to test because they do not know their boyfriends or husbands are having sex with men.

We might go with the assumption that women who are dating or married to men who have sex with men have twice as much risk of new HIV diagnosis as the men. Amongst 20-year-old men having sex with men the new diagnosis risk is 1 in 15. Projecting from the drug injection risk, 20-year-old women who have sex with men who also have sex with men might be expected to have a new diagnosis risk of 1 in 8 (twice as risky as for the men).

I arrive at this estimate by creating a similar ratio, like this …

  • New diagnosis risk at 20 for men versus women who inject drugs = 1/220 for men versus 1 in 109 for women (about twice as risky for women)
  • Extrapolating new diagnosis risk at 20 for men versus women in relationships where the man has sex with men = 1 in 15 for men versus 1 in 8 (about twice as risky) for women

Importance of Gender Equality in HIV / AIDS Testing of Young People. The above estimate highlights how important gender equality in HIV / AIDS testing may be right now, as regards testing for young women.

From the above estimate we might also extrapolate the number of men who are not disclosing their bisexual lifestyle. If in fact it proves true that twice as many young women as young men, overall, are getting new HIV diagnoses, then it seems to me possible that as many as half of American men are engaging in sex with men as well as with their female sexual partners and wives.

What otherwise would account for young women having a higher incidence of new diagnoses than young men? I have read online that many young women have sex with two men by about age 20. If one of these two had HIV, and gave it to the young woman, then her new male partner would be at risk of infection as well. If this were to be so, then the risk for young women might be from young men who also have sex with men. And the risk for young men might be from having sex with either young men who have sex with men, or from having sex with young women who have done so. Do you not feel this to be true?

If so, then the feat that lies before the medical profession would be to find the most effective way of gathering information from young HIV positive men regarding their female sexual partners, and of persuading the men to allow their female sexual partners to test.

Blessings to all,

In love, light and joy
