Introduction: Archeologists used radio-carbon dating of ancient Indian dwellings to confirm that The Butler Novel began 10-12,000 years ago. That is the earliest known arrival of people in our beautiful area.
Long-lost chapters in “The Butler Novel” were written every time established Tribes of Indians were attacked and replaced by other Tribes during The Stone Ages. Then, as now, nearly every flat area along every River and Stream in Pennsylvania was home to cities and villages of Hard-working People with many languages and beliefs. Families lived and worked in fields, huge orchards of nut trees, and workshops where skilled craftspeople made things of wood, stone, bone, bark, skins, fibers, clay, feathers, and even some chemicals for dyes and medicines.
We do not know the names of early “Tribes” in the first 10,000 years of Butler County’s Stone Ages. Two thousand years ago, it is thought that Tribes now known as “Hopewell Indians” took over. They were replaced by “Adena Indians” who may have been defeated by Indians of the “Huron Tribes”. After that, many Tribes of Seneca and Allegheny Indians were attacked by “Erie Indians” and their allies.
United Tribes of “Iroquois Indians” began to attack villages and cities of Stone Age “Erie Indians”. Not long after that, a bloodthirsty Tribe of land-grabbing “English Episcopalians” appeared from afar. Their Tribe had combined Iron Age Technology with self-serving ideals to replace nearly a thousand years of Catholic Churches, schools, monasteries, convents, teachings, and accommodations for the poor. The Tribe of English Episcopalians worshiped “More for Me!” They confiscated one-third of England’s land (over 20 million acres!) that had been donated to The Church over the preceding thousand years. Those properties provided farms, mines, mills, hospitals, and workshops that provided education in Catholic schools, colleges, and universities, along with “accommodations for the poor.” Soon, many of their countrymen and women in England, Ireland, and Scotland were forced to flee from an England ruled by worshipers of “More for Me!”
When their control extended to our Continent, the “Chiefs” of the “English Episcopalian Tribe”, replaced the Judeo-Catholic Traditions of “Merrie olde England”. Both the “Ten Commandments” and “Love God and love your neighbor as yourself” were “redacted” and replaced with a single sentence: “The only good Indian is a dead Indian.”
Many such “Colonial Governors” quietly ordered entire Tribes of Stone-Age Indians to be exterminated. State-controlled clergy agreed: “We need congregations out West!” Indian Tribes were confused by alcohol and weakened by diseases to which they had developed no natural immunities. All native jobs in Stone-Age economies were wiped out by mass-produced tin, copper, bronze, brass, and iron tools, pots, ornaments, machine-woven fabrics, and weapons mass-produced by the boatload from Iron Age factories in England. English Episcopalians encouraged the burning of endless, fruitful fields of dry Indian corn every autumn to starve Indian Families during agonizingly cold winters.
Westward eviction of shrinking Indian survivors went on so long that some Tribes in Ohio were crammed into railroad cars and sent West on railroad trains! Today, Lost Tribes of Stone Age Indian Peoples are remembered only by the many, many, many States, Counties, Cities, Towns, and Schools that still bear their names between Connecticut and Oregon. All can see that in vast areas of the once Episcopalian-controlled United States, there is no Indian DNA. In Catholic-settled nations, Indian DNA survives in 90% of the living people.
By The Grace of God, denominations that followed in later Chapters of The Butler Novel returned to believing that “You shall not kill.” and “Love God and love your neighbor as yourself.” are Fundamental Truths by Which to Live. An even greater Miracle occurred! Some in the Tribe of English Episcopalians returned to those uplifting beliefs as “Tribes of Christian Denominations” became blessedly “more Christian” than the first, bloody waves of English Episcopalians that washed away tens of millions of Stone Age Indians forever while “More for Me!” echoed from “sea to shining sea”.
Today, boatloads of incoming invaders want to do to American Families what the “More for Me!” Tribe of English Episcopalians did to America’s Indians. The usual self-serving people hate God, their neighbors, and themselves enough to help.
Whew! That’s more History than many want us to know.

The Last Chapter of The Butler Novel began to be written before 6:11 PM on July 13, 2024. “The Butler Novel” begins with the fine work done by good citizens, Local Law Enforcement, and Butler County Officials to prepare for a Presidential Candidate’s campaign rally.
Many good people in and around Butler County played the same Starring Roles in The Butler Novel’s Latest Chapter that they play in real life! They did a far better job than many are led to believe.
The The Butler Novel begins by considering similarities between the recent attack on a former President’s election campaign and a Greek assassination in 514 BC. Aristogeiton was offended because Hipparchus, the younger brother of Athen’s ruler, Hippias, showed an “interest” in Aristogeiton’s young lover, Harmodius. Jealousy, anger, and power-seeking killed the three men.
What could connect Ancient Greece with The Latest Chapter of The Butler Novel about Butler County, Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024 AD? A day or two after the shooting in Butler, a post appearing to be from the shooter’s mother made a heartfelt complaint: “racist homophobes should stop bullying my son.”
Her sincere words prompt a question that many prefer to “redact”: “What, except for knowing about her son’s same-sex identification, could have prompted his mother to call those who insulted him: ‘homophobes’?”
Genuinely concerned people in gay and straight communities are not afraid to ask that question because we want everyone to be safe from those who prey on the vulnerable. Those who prefer “redaction” make the usual excuses to keep politically incorrect Truth from being sought or recognized. Unlike the good, truth-seeking citizens of Butler and other places, they choose to live in “Redactorville”.
~
Did this Chapter of The Butler Novel begin when someone was told to find a confused, intelligent young man (SAT Scores of 1500!), needy for approval from a manipulative authority figure? Many are asking the question that some prefer to “redact”: “Did this vulnerable 20-year-old lose his life after being seduced into believing how ‘rightfully and historically important’ he could and should be if he assassinated a Presidential Candidate unpopular with many?”
Hopefully: His overseas and local phone connections are examined and fellow school students are interviewed to identify thoughts, inclinations, and desires they noticed. His phone calls, email records, and writings are carefully reviewed. Books, movies, videos, magazines, and information he chose to access are examined. New adult contacts in the last year or so of his life are identified and questioned, under oath. Open, honest people want all that is found to be “Made Public”, with “No Redactions” in what is a “National Emergency” that all “redactions” will help to be repeated.
Parental Liability is explored. Recently, a jury found that the parents of a school shooter were guilty of allowing their confused daughter easy access to the firearms she took to school and used to kill several students. Do parents of the Butler shooter have even greater liability because they are “professional counselors” who make a living by getting clients to understand: “We meaningfully care about identifying and curing psychological problems.”?
It seems his parents did care and did do something! The Butler Novel considers the anguished recognition of their son’s problems when they reportedly called the FBI to report him “missing”. How often does someone call the FBI to report a family member who is merely “missing”? That call was a sure-to-have-been-recorded conversation. To whom did they speak? Will the call and identities of those on the call be “redacted” because avoiding admission of mistakes is more important than Truth? Did the parents call the FBI because it was the only solution they could think of for a problem they, as experienced, professional, certified counselors, had good reason to be very concerned about? Had they reported their “missing son” may have had the similarly “missing semi-automatic rifle”? That explains their Very Important Call to the only Agency that could provide the help that all involved desperately needed.
Did the FBI commit a grievous error by not immediately taking concerns from Certified Psychologists seriously enough to spend half an hour locating the exact position of his cell phone with their powerful telephone-locating search engines and have one or two (of exactly how many FBI Agents within an hour or so away?), immediately locate and interview him? Were they not given his cell phone number? Was parental fear of coming problems confirmed when they hired attorneys who may easily convince a jury of randomly chosen American citizens that the FBI’s willful failure to provide the quick, competent response that could be reasonably expected from such an Agency is a major contributing factor to the tragedy? Did the parents warn them of legal, mind-altering medications prescribed to their son or of associates who may be leading him astray?
Everyone is asking Five Questions!
1. Who were the agents who made the decision to ignore the warning from the parents of young Mr. Thomas Matthew Crooks?
2. Were those agents praised or critized by superiors for not responding to the sincere plea for help from the Certified Psychological Counselors who are his parents?
3. Were higher-ranking evaluators more likely to praise or criticize them?
4. Is this the Greatest Security Failure since Abraham Lincoln’s Pinkerton guard left his position at Ford’s Theater and went to the tavern downstairs, leaving the door to Abraham Lincoln’s box seat unlocked so John Wilkes Booth could easly enter and assassinate the President?
5. Will any public media ask those questions or expect to get them answered?
~
An important part of The Butler Novel wonders exactly who decided to send what is said to be the first “counter-sniper team” to a former President’s Campaign Rally in this campaign. Was the “expert counter-sniper” planned to be precisely and perfectly placed to kill the carefully positioned young assassin before he could be captured and disclose who helped him? Is Computer-age Presidential Assassination Planning now designed to avoid the long time it took to get Lee Harvey Oswald, whose last recorded words included “I’m only a patsy.” in front of the terminally ill Jack Ruby and his handgun after President Kennedy was assassinated?
The Butler Novel/Movie/Video explores how and when the young assassin found, or was given, more details about the pre-arranged Presidential Rally location than The Secret Service was able to find and protect. Computer records of his searches on sites like Google Maps will be publicly examined. Every concerned citizen has a right to expect that young Mr. Crook’s computer searches, including those he made on school, friends, or public library computers and phones, will not be “redacted”.
Questions about: “How did he find his way between secured buildings, park among local Law Enforcement vehicles, get onto a heating/air conditioning unit, and climb from it onto the ideal sniper position on a strangely unguarded roof in a complicated, crowded, seemingly secured, unfamiliar location surrounded by police while carrying a rifle?” will be answered. The mysterious “disappearance” of the 15-foot ladder he recently purchased will be explained by finding out how and when he learned he would not need it.
This, and other questions, will hopefully not be “redacted”: “Were warnings and actual sightings reported by concerned Butler County citizens and our outstanding Local Law Enforcement Officers intentionally overlooked by people told to ‘Be ignorant on purpose.’?”
More Mysteries in The Butler Novel: At 5:14 pm ET, did a local sniper team take photos of young Mr. Crooks, inside the AGR building, nearly an hour before the shooting at 6:11? Why wasn’t he stopped?
A Pennsylvania State Trooper was posted under a nearby water tower. He spotted young Mr. Crooks at 6:08 p.m. that evening. He put out a radio dispatch warning all: “There’s someone on the roof!”
Did someone order Federal Agencies to not use the programmed radios that our fine, Local Law Enforcement provided to send and receive such Emergency Messages to provide better Security? Those radios provided the same channel to let all Security Personnel from every Agency easily communicate, but were never used. Even worse, “The Secret Service never bothered to pick them up!” according to our concerned Local Law Enforcement and U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.).
Did security failures begin the night before the rally? That is when stacks of un-inspected chairs were said to have been put in place by volunteers who came and went without having their identities checked. According to one volunteer who helped: “Anyone could have been there!” Were explosives intended to be hidden to put dozens of that politically incorrect candidate’s supporters, including Congressman Mike Kelly, his family, and supporters sitting near the candidate, at risk of death or injury? Did people assigned to do that fail, or were they ordered not to do so? Will such considerations be “redacted” by the leading citizens of Redactorville, or fully and honestly investigated?
Why are those concerns important? Powerful explosives were found in both the assassin’s home and car! Explosives are among the most “traceable” things in this country! Where, exactly, did those explosives come from? Who taught young Mr. Crooks how to use them? Was material for shrapnel found? Will Local Law Enforcement be allowed to find honest, complete answers without “redactions” from those who want to hide such truths?
“Why was the mysterious ‘white van’, also with explosives inside, said to have an Arizona license plate? Whose license plate was it? Who owned the van? Did the disappearing “ladder” fit inside it with or without the rear door open so it could be seen on nearby service station videos? How did the license plate get to Pennsylvania? Was it mailed, sent by a private mail delivery service, provided by an interested party, or was the van driven to his home in Pennsylvania? What happened to its Pennsylvania license plate, if it had one? Will Local Law Enforcement be allowed to investigate and release ownership details, maps of its travel, and ‘pings’ to and from the driver identifying all in contact with him or her?
Television ‘crime shows’ let us see that good, local police investigators often follow such ‘pings’, even weeks and months after a crime, often for dozens and hundreds of miles, and spend endless hours reviewing gas-station videos of who is using restrooms and buying food while filling up their vehicle with fuel. Will that be done to let us see anyone in ‘the white van’ and every associated vehicle? Or, will ‘redactions’ ordered by the Rulers of Redactorville keep those facts hidden from mere citizens?”

An important part of The Butler Novel wonders exactly who decided to send what is said to be the first “counter-sniper team” to a former President’s Campaign Rally in this campaign. Was the “expert counter-sniper” precisely and perfectly placed to be able to kill the carefully positioned young assassin before he could be captured and disclose who helped him? Again, the question: Is Computer-age Presidential Assassination Planning now designed to avoid the long time it took to get Lee Harvey Oswald in front of the terminally ill Jack Ruby and his handgun after President Kennedy was killed from someone on the Redactor-Ignored “grassy knoll”, as the latest examination of recently released autopsy photographs of President Kennedy indicate to experts in that field?
~
The most fascinating scene in The Butler Novel/Movie/Video focuses on what is hard to avoid: visualizing what may be the actual thoughts of the “expert counter-sniper”. It might open with sight pictures of a deer, woodchuck, or person targeted by a similar, high-powered telescopic scope at the same distance to let viewers see what an easy target the “expert counter-sniper” had from his amazingly perfect “counter-sniper” position. Exactly how powerful was the “expert counter-sniper’s” telescopic sight? Will details about the expertly chosen caliber and ammunition specifications be shared or “redacted” to protect rabid raccoons, coyotes, and vicious predators from helpful “varmint hunters”.
The Butler Novel/Movie/Video considers what the “expert counter-sniper” may not have helped but think as he watched the assassin fire seven more shots in the following seconds. Was there an average “thinking time” between the eight shots that may have taken as long for “a mere citizen” to say out loud: “One thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand three, one thousand four, one thousand five, one thousand six, one thousand seven, and possibly “one thousand eight, one thousand nine.” during the volley that killed one person and seriously wounded two more of our Butler County neighbors whose only “crime” was public support of a former President? Do some think that “crime” is as serious as those said to have been committed by American citizens still spending collective centuries in jail for peacefully using their “right to free speech” in The Capitol Building that was built upon The Foundation of that Constitutional Guarantee?
~
Accurate images and audio will let us see and hear the actual, micro-second time delay between sight and sound in each shot of the video reenactment. Using “real-time” will show exactly what the “expert counter-sniper” actually watched and heard as he watched the assassin fire seven more shots, unless that visualization is “redacted”.
Were those seven shots allowed by the expert “counter-sniper” because orders had been given to him before he began his assignment: “Remember, Crooks may have to shoot several times.” Or, were those orders given to him by radio after each of the assassin’s shots to give him a chance to hit the candidate with his next bullet? “Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.” Those seconds may be the most fascinating scene in any movie or video in History! Interspersed pictures in the scenes between shots show each person killed or wounded being hit following those shots of the assassin’s volley.
Then, Four Big Questions!
1. Did those “seven Waits” end at the moment he, or his controllers, saw that a well-placed shot from one of our fine Local Law Enforcement Officers (That formerly redacted “Hero of The Day” was recently identified as Sgt. Aaron M. Zaliponi of the Adams Township Police Department.) was shown to have hit the assassin’s rifle, making it unable to fire?
2. Did that prompt “the expert sniper” to realize, or was he given a half-second command the moment the shooter could no longer kill the Candidate: “Shoot!”?
3. Will even considering that scene be “redacted” by orders to obedient media?
4. Will the actual names of all “redactors” and all requested “redactions” of any answers to any questions asked in The Butler Novel and by others be released, or will they be “redacted”? Who would not want to know who has chosen to live in Redactorville?
~
Immediately after the shooting, how did the mysterious “man in the suit”, now confirmed to be an ATF Agent, get to the rooftop so quickly? Where was he in the previous minutes, hours, and days? Why did he have pictures of the shooter sent to another ATF agent? Did that ATF agent personally know young Thomas Matthew Crooks? Why hasn’t he been publicly interviewed? Does he keep a photo of young Mr. Crooks in his wallet?
Obvious, common-sense questions must be considered:
“Was Mr. Crook’s body ordered to be left on the roof for several hours after The Butler County Coroner tried to get his body to let molecular disintegration cause drugs to disappear? Who gave the order that two Coroner’s Reports from two County Coroners in two different Counties be provided? Were they ordered to provide ‘conflicting information that must, therefore, be ignored.’? Did either Coroner’s Report provide a chemical analysis of legally prescribed psychological medications (not illegal drugs) or abuse in or on him? Is that why the assassin’s body was cremated rather than released? Will the full release of both reports be ‘redacted’? Will signs of damage around his prostrate be released? Is that something for which autopsies routinely check? Were actual blood samples retained for independent labs to analyze?”
More Questions include:
This simple question is asked by millions of people: “The most modern, high-resolution, camera-carrying drones in the world are available to Federal Security Forces. Why weren’t they put to use?”
The Butler Novel accompanies That Question with three more: “Were camera-carrying drones actually in use? Were one or more “supervisory agents” using drone-mounted cameras to watch the assassin crawl across the roof without warning anyone before he began shooting? Was there operational control over the confused young man through tiny earphones or his cell phone?”
Millions more are asking: “Were our extraordinarily competent and concerned Butler County and Local Law Enforcement Officers the only people who cared enough to offer to provide one or more modern, high-tech security drones that some Federal Authorities may, and should, be identified as having rejected?”
More “Confusion from above” is described in an article from Spotlight PA: “The Butler County Emergency Services Unit, a special weapons and tactical squad, had toured the Butler Farm Show during the week and had identified the AGR building as a threat. In the meeting, Butler County officials raised the issue with the Secret Service, said Goldinger, the Butler County District Attorney, but ultimately, the agency did not post anyone on the roof. ‘This was their ballgame.’ Goldinger correctly said of a Secret Service proud of its operational control.” That was an honest and courageous statement!
Local Law Enforcement agencies can track “pings” on cell phones and make “maps” to find where people have been visiting, with whom they have been communicating, and identify those who have called or visited them. Was this tracking done on the confused young shooter’s cell phone(s) in the hours and days before and after he seems to have been filmed walking around at an earlier Festival in downtown Butler? With whom did he have breakfasts, lunches, dinners, conversations, or visits? Will maps of his travels be provided, as they often are on “Crime Shows”? The Butler Novel will try to let us know what Local Law Enforcement was, and was not, allowed and encouraged to investigate fully. All “redactions” help us understand how little the “redactors” want us to know. Lies prevail when Trust and Truth are undermined.
~
Will an enjoyable part of The Butler Novel be watching questions being avoided by skilled, professional “redactors” who steadfastly repeat the beautifully calculated vagueness of those who will endlessly and solemnly avoid honestly answering politically incorrect questions by seriously and slowly intoning: “We are looking into that.” to proudly demonstrate their mastery of what has become a popular way to provide “redaction”, even as they throw local law enforcement and officials under the bus? (Will that be the longest coherent sentence in The Butler Novel?)
Another popular excuse to avoid Truth: “As a matter of longstanding policy, the U.S. Secret Service does not comment on pending or proposed litigation.” That, at least, required someone to do the hard work involved in copying and pasting the usual reason for “redaction”. Many are too lazy to even do that, preferring the silence that “redaction approvers” are encouraged to embrace: “The DHS did not respond to a request for comment by the time of publication.” It seems the ‘man in the suit’ is admitted to being from the ATF, but was there in a mysterious ‘personal capacity’. He has also disappeared into The Swamp of Self-serving Silence, along with an explanation of how any‘personal capacity”can replace “sworn duty to uphold the law” for residents of Redactorville.
~
Many find The Butler Novel intriguing because the best fiction is filled with facts.
May God bless us all to see that Local Law Enforcement and Butler County Officials did a far better job than those who did not meaningfully want to do so. The comparative incompetence, or worse, of a few people in a few Federal Authorities is an ongoing embarrassment to the many good people and Agencies. Their good people are exemplified by those who bravely shielded the Presidential Candidate with their bodies as shots were being fired! Comparing their courage, and that shown by Local Law Enforcement and Local Officials, explains some of the urges for “redaction” from those whose mistakes call their intellects and morals into question.
Included among them are those described by Tyler Durden on 9/30/24: “In the video footage of the assassination attempt, criticism was particularly aimed at the conduct of the few female agents who were part of President Trump’s detail that day. Several women were noticeably overweight, with one seen cowering behind other agents and President Trump immediately after the shots rang out, while another one visibly struggled to re-holster her weapon as President Trump was being escorted into a vehicle to be taken to the hospital.”
One person summed up the failures that allowed this tragedy to happen: “It’s pretty clear that it wasn’t just one screw-up here,” said Andrew Vitek, a professor who teaches about terrorism at Penn State University. “This is indicative of multiple systemic failures all coming down around their ears at once.”
We pray that all involved will work diligently to avoid any “redactions” of every truth, including releasing all Emergency Calls made about this situation. The more high-sounding such efforts may be made to seem, the more clearly we see the desire to provide truth-hiding “redactions”. In cases like this, there must be a Policy of “No Redactions” so that all future political candidates from every Party will be safer. “Redactions” are forms of “bearing false witness” that threaten Truth and Democracy and the life of every candidate in every Party who cares enough to run for Public Office.
May God bless all who meaningfully love our Faith, Freedom, and Families with the courage to demand: “No Redactions!”, even for those who choose to live in “Redactorville”, the Capital City of The Self-Serving Swamp.
A wonderful alternative would be to provide an Official Government Report with all requested “redactions”. The Official Government Report could be reduced to Four Short Sentences on One Page:
Official Government Report:
1.“We cannot do more than ‘temporarily suspend’ the single Federal employee who may have done something wrong or may have failed to do things properly and intelligently through no fault of her own.
2. It would be wrong to put anyone except our approved scapegoat in fear of having their salaries, bonuses, benefits, and pensions at risk.
3. It would be worse to hurt their feelings by publicly enumerating mistakes individuals have made.
4. No Official Government Report is allowed to do such awful things.”
~
Then, an accompanying Unofficial Report for Mere Citizens could ask and answer far more questions than those considered in The Butler Novel. No one would appreciate that more than those respectable government workers who could not publicly recognize what an important contribution “The Unofficial Report for Mere Citizens” would make, in the words of Superman from what must be the Divine Coincidence of coming from DC Comics verbalizing our prayers and hopes that in Washington, DC, “Truth, Justice, and The American Way” will prevail.
~
Follow-ups:
1. Two months after young Mr. Crooks tried to assassinate the Presidential Candidate, an older, rifle-armed sniper with the same goal was stopped at a Florida golf course. He somehow knew that an unannounced schedule change had the Candidate playing golf. That raised concerns about how an individual could put himself in place 12 hours before he attempted to ambush from an uninspected point of vulnerability on the edge of the golf course where only security forces should have known Mr. Trump would be. The Secret Service does not answer that, but they were recently open and honest enough to say: “Mr. Trump, you can no longer play golf.”
2. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis accused the FBI of blocking a State investigation into that second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.
3. There are still problems with security! On Friday, September 27, 2024, nearly two months after the attempted assassination, people went to care for horses stabled inside the Butler Fair Grounds. They were kept from entering by nearly a dozen Big, Black, Gleaming, Suburban-type Vehicles that kept them from driving to the barn that housed the horses for which they were caring.
The horse owners were told by armed agents: “This facility is shut down! No one may enter while we do a security check in advance of Trump’s upcoming Rally on October 5, 2024.”
Those who wanted to feed and brush their horses politely and respectfully explained to the armed agents: “You are in the wrong place. The upcoming Rally will not be held at The Butler Fairgrounds, but at The Butler Farm Show Grounds. That is 6.3 miles, 11 minutes, away.”
The mistake is understandable. The word “Fair” and the word “Farm” are easily confused. Both begin with a large capital “F”. Three of the four letters in each word are the same! They are easily misread because “New Ways to Teach Reading” are an important part of the “dumbing-down” process that keeps many Public School students, the main source of government employees, from being able to read as well as they otherwise would, another “fact” that is sure to be “redacted”.
Their supervisor did have the intellectual ability to use his cell phone to confirm the truth of what “mere citizens of Butler County” were telling him. He called a higher-level employee, one who did have the necessary reading skills, and confirmed that their Impressive Cavalcade had mistakenly arrived at the wrong address. He promptly ordered everyone back into their Impressive Cavalcade and left with a not-unprecedented bureaucratic refusal to say even a grateful “Thank you!” to helpful people from Butler County. The agents were spotted later that day at the Butler Farm Show. Thankfully, with help from the mere citizens of Butler County, they could finally find and inspect the right place.
Hopefully, this mistake will not be “redacted”, but recognized so that better preparation will make all candidates safer. “Remedial Reading Classes” provided by non-public schools may be of nation-wide assistance for all of us.
4. The Director of the FBI tried to hide errors his agents made when he denied that the Candidate was even hit by a bullet! Jim Hoft wrote on October 8, 2024: “Chris Wray, who has a record of setting up innocent men in fake kidnapping plots, spying on Catholics at Church, raiding the homes of peaceful pro-life activists, terrorizing J6 protesters and their families, and targeting parents at school board meetings, took a swipe at President Trump during his testimony before Congress in late July.
Wray suggested that a bullet did not hit President Trump, but that it was instead shrapnel that caused his injury on stage at the Butler rally.
Wray did admit his agency and other federal government employees had allowed 8 shots to be fired at Trump during his speech – 8 shots before the gunman was neutralized!” Amazingly, he did let one bright ray of truth shine forth in his testimony: He was either able to count to 8, or he was able to properly read that number from his notes or teleprompter. May investigators celebrate that fact while we pray that small step in the right direction will be followed by more.
5: The cover-up continued through October, according to The National Post: “Top officials in the United States Secret Service (USSS) are stonewalling Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Inspector General Joseph Cuffari‘s probe into security lapses that resulted in the July 13 assassination attempt on President Donald J. Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. In the aftermath of the attempt on Trump’s life, managers within the USSS told employees to notify them if they received requests for documents, information, or interviews from the Inspector General—suggesting the agency wished to coach potential witnesses before speaking with the government watchdog.
Internal USSS emails, first obtained by RealClearPolitics, direct employees to immediately inform their supervisor if they are contacted by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG).”
6. The Organization, AbleChild, asks an interesting question: “AbleChild was interested in the alleged shooter’s employment at The Bethel Park Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. The alleged shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, would have had a photo ID and would have had to pass a background check including fingerprints to obtain that employment.”
Were the names of people whom 20 year old Thomas Crooks listed as references checked to determine their relationship with the shooter? Is that information still unaltered, undeleted, and available?
~
A Lesson Learned:
County Commissioner Leslie Osche brilliantly described what Federal Agencies seem to be focused on: “And I am waiting for the results of an investigation by qualified institutions instead of endless finger-pointing.”
Thank you, Leslie Osche! We are grateful to you for summing up the thoughts that reflect what millions of mere citizens are praying for in one incredibly intelligent sentence! “And I am waiting for the results of an investigation by qualified institutions instead of endless finger-pointing.”
Since “endless finger-pointing” never ends for those avoiding blame, may we all be blessed to focus on making The Unofficial Report for Mere Citizens as accurately fact-filled as possible, obeying The Legal Duty to provide what many doing the hardest work of their careers to avoid:
“The Truth, The Whole Truth, and Nothing But The Truth.”
We may now see updates about mistakes that have been openly discussed in an “Interim Report”:
https://taskforce.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/july13taskforce.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/task-force-interim-staff-report-10.21.2024.pdf
The writers of the “Interim Report” have kindly avoided the word “incompetence” and questions about it being “willful” while making it clear that both must be considered.
As predicted in the suggested four-sentence “Official Government Report” above, those who made mistakes were largely, if not entirely, unnamed.

Afterword: Lessons from History, Literature, and Religion:
History: Most of us have learned enough History to know that Julius Caesar, one of the Greatest Roman Emperors, was assassinated by an armed gang of jealous rivals. His chosen heir and successor, Augustus, was blessed to win wars of rebellion led by Brutus and other assassins of Caesar when they tried to seize The Roman Empire with Legions under their command.
Caesar Augustus won those wars. Then, his Intelligence Agencies found and “permanently redacted” all who helped in the assassination of Julius Caesar.
History’s Lesson: “Redaction” may occur in “The Redaction of Redactors”.
History’s Better Lesson: “Forgiveness is better than such “redaction” because it provides time for soul-saving “repentance and redemption”.
Literature: Dante is one of the most widely-read authors in History. His “Divine Comedy” tells us that the souls of all who unrepentantly participate in “Complex Frauds” for personal gain must spend eternity in the lowest six Circles of “The Inferno”.
After a lifetime of praying for “wisdom and understanding”, Dante realized the immortal soul of the assassin, Brutus, is in the lowest circle of “The Inferno”. He forever suffers the greatest pain in Creation along with Judas Iscariot, who tried to “redact” Jesus for Speaking His Church-Creating Word to the first Catholic Pope: “And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
Religion: Interestingly, Dante’s Inferno puts Mohammed with Brutus and Judas in the lowest place in hell, symbolizing a “reverse trinity”. Like the first to be led to America by later Believers in “More for Me”, their followers continue to exterminate or enslave as many “God and neighbor-loving people” as they can. Often, their invasions are made to seem “rightful and peaceful”, but they are allowed and encouraged by those too self-centered to do more than plunder and destroy those who strive to obey “Love God and your neighbors as yourself.”
“The Butler Novel” lets us learn from Dante that no one should worry more about having their immortal souls ‘redacted from Heaven’ than those who unrepentantly ‘redact truths’ on Earth that lead to death and destruction.
Believers ask The Most Important Questions of All:
Many Readers of “The Butler Novel” believe in The Bible. We ask four questions that “redactors” hate for anyone to ask:
1. “Had young Mr. Thomas Matthew (the names of two of the 12 Disciples) Crooks been Baptized in The Name of The Father and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit?”
2. If so, did falling into sin confuse the tiny thought-photons in his mind as he was led to reject any requests to God for Guidance?
3. If he was not Baptized, will his parents ask God to forgive them for not doing that or having him learn that “Thou shall not kill.” is a Word of God that all pro-life people obey?”
4. “Should Catholics and other believers pray that all who willfully choose to break The 8th Commandment, “Thou shall not bear false witness.” will seek forgiveness for their sins as humbly as they proudly committed them?”
The answer to Question 4 is “Yes.”
St. Faustina offers miraculous hope for even ‘willful redactors of truth’ when she tells us: “Jesus loves to save the souls of those who repent the greatest sins.” Some of us ask: “Did Thomas Matthew Crooks have time to say “I’m sorry!” between the time he saw the flash of light from the end of the counter-sniper’s rifle barrel and the fraction of a second later, when the bullet reached his brain?

The Butler Novel (copyright 2024, Catholic Fundamentalism)
The Butler Novel, Chapter 2: The History of Public Education from Babylon to Sparta to Butler County.
The many breasts of the goddess Artemis symbolized Government Departments where Babylon’s worshipers of the state could be fed. When Babylon fell, the goddess resurfaced in Sparta. She soon destroyed the most powerful City-State in ancient Greece. She moved West to England, the country she now leads to ruin. Now, Artemis is worshiped here! The ancient connection is clear in The Butler Novel’s 210 year History of Public Education’s decline in Butler County and all America.
Chapter 1 of “The Butler Novel” began with the deadly effect of behaviors accepted as “normal” in Ancient Athens.
Chapter 2 begins in Ancient Babylon, when Public Education was one or more of the many State-Provided “breasts” from which Babylonians “suckled”. Babylon was destroyed when Cyrus, whom God used to put Persians with a better vew of God and families, was empowered to capture the city.
The Profiteers of Public Education resurfaced in Sparta where they led Spartan Kings to replace Families as teachers of their children. Sparta’s “Public Educators” took Spartan boys from their homes when they were six years old and forced them into decades of “Public Education” with the horrors of Spartan Military Barracks. While the sins of Athens left that city often defeated by enemies, those forced to live by the moral dictates of “Public Educators” in Sparta turned that once powerful City-State into the barren ruins that Babylon became in a few hundred years.
2,000 years after destroying Sparta, Public Education Profiteers moved West to Great Britain. There, they turned their attention to driving Catholics out of their Family-Supporting Catholic Schools and Universities. They replaced Catholic Schools and Universities with those under Government Control.
By the early 1600s, England’s “Episcopalian Tribe” had run out of Catholic land to steal in England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales. And, they had run out of Catholics to kill, rob, and imprison. Families were forced to send their children into new, Government-approved schools that would not be guided by The Church-Creating Word of Jesus to His First Catholic Pope: “And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
~
England’s Episcopalians knew they must protect themselves from being attacked and looted the same way their founders had looted Catholics and The Church of over 20,000,00 acres of lands and buildings as monasteries and convents, like “Downton Abbey” were turned into vast mansions and estates by those who wanted worldly riches more than “the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven” that Jesus died to leave on earth.
.
“The Episcopalian Protection Plan” was simple: “We will seize as much of North America as we can. Then, we will replace Indian Tribes with potential trouble-makers whom we no longer allow to spend their lives honoring God in Catholic Schools, Monasteries, and Convents. We will use the Indian Lands in America to get rid of increasing numbers of ever angrier people who will be used against us by those who want our wealth and power as much as we wanted theirs!”
“Chiefs of The Episcopalian Tribe in America”, the Colonial Governors, began exterminating Indians they could not evict and seizing their Tribal Areas. Land Speculators used surveyors to claim title to huge sections of land along the Atlantic coast in Pennsylvania, Virginia, and other states for pennies an acre. In Pennsylvania, William Penn cheated nearly a fourth of the State from inebriated Indians for a few trunks full of Trade Goods produced cheaply by England’s increasingly efficient factories. A new generation of Land Speculators sold that land to settlers for a few hundred times more.
England’s Government, led by “Crowned Puppets of Artemis” took the power to make Land-Grabbing Treaties” from America’s “land grabbers” that included The Virginia Land Company, an early employer of George Washington. In 1753, they sent him to negotiate with French Catholics at Fort LeBuef, north of Butler County and encourage them to “Stop building Forts! Your Catholic priests and religious are giving Indian Tribes reasons and places to get together and stop us from stealing their land!”
George Washington personally owned over 20,000 acres, as much land as in Butler County’s vast wasteland of Moraine State Park that could be providing 10,000 families with 2 acre estates, around the appropriately named ‘Washington County’ South of Pittsburgh that added to his 5 or 10 miles of Ohio River Frontage. Thomas Jefferson employed surveyors who looked for land for him as far West as Ohio.
Those “Founding Fathers” were motivated to encourage all the brighter people in the colonies to revolt when England’s insatiable government looters, empowered by Artemis’s Puppetized Crown, began to viciously tax all Americans. “We came here to get away from tax-addicted parasites! Only a Revolution will let us stay free!”
God’s Freedom-Loving People won their war against the tyrants of Artemis, who still masquerade as English Royalty, and took over much of North America between The Mississippi River and the Atlantic Coast.
History repeated itself! Once again, new, well-connected Land Speculators ended up with legal title to vast territores between Harrisburg and The Mississippi River. Enough land for an entire farm was available in every County in the New States of The New Country for two or three hundred dollars.
Finally! “Family-Centered Public Education” began:
The best parents among The Pioneer Tribes in Butler, and every County, knew: “We need schools! Our children must learn how to read The Bible, respect God, pray with their friends, write clearly, know History, behave themselves, and learn enough Arithmetic and Geometry to successfully use artillery to stay free.”
“Family-Centered Public Education” began when Fathers and Grandfathers built simple, log school buildings. That process became easier when sawmills let them replace heavy logs with a few wagonloads of wooden studs, clapboard, and oak shingles.
While some built the buildings, others made tables, benches, chairs, and a small podium. Others dug pits and built outdoor toilets for “Boys” and “Girls” in an age so uncorrupted by Public Educations’s later leaders that people were able to think intelligently enough to appreciate the difference between the two.
Mothers and Grandmothers provided food. Often, a few people would bring a jug or two of home-made whiskey to “lubricate” the process.
They finished in few weekends. Cost to build an entire school? A few hundred dollars, mostly for windows, hinges, blackboards, screws, bolts, nails, a wood-burning stove for heating, and stovepipe. The twenty-five students in an average school had a “building cost per student” of $20-$30.00.
Leap forward 210 years! A recent Bond Issue for $20,000,000.00 currently has to be repaid, with another $20,000,000.00 in interest, by property owners in Butler County’s Slippery Rock School District. That was justified because a gutless School Board agreed with Public Education Profiteers that: “Students must have ‘an outdoor dining experience’ when eating lunch in their remodeled cafeteria.”
Don’t think about that! Let’s go back 210 years to when Family-Centered Public Education needed to find teachers. Many were chosen because they knew how to read, write, and speak intelligently. They usually boarded at someone’s house and worked during the summer months, often wooing the most prosperous man or woman available. Often, the ‘top graduate’ of every school was chosen to become the next teacher. Families did not have to waste money on Personnel Departments.
Original Costs of “Family-Centered Public Education”:
“In Worth Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, a typical school was established in 1810 or 1811 in a log house on the old Pisor farm . . . 25 children attended at a yearly cost to families of $6.00 per pupil. The teacher‘s salary for teaching several grades at once was $150.00/year.”
That “news”, beautifully reported by The Butler Eagle, is over 210 years old, when Public Education was an effective, inexpensive, and “Family-Centered”.
Those schools had no “Principal”. There were no “Superintendents”. There were no expensive “Expert Educators” whose combined efforts would soon be making more children more illiterate than ever. There were no “Office Staffs”. for any such people. There were no huge Public University Departments of Enlightened Educators draining taxpayers to subsidize one wasteful ridiculousness after another. No State Educational Bureaucracies were supported by money taken from Families. In Family-Centered Public Education such expenditures were utterly unnecessary for nearly a hundred years.
Who ran things? The most concerned parents made the few decisions necessary, often when they met at a local store, tavern, or Church. Most people in every “School District” had a “Real Job”. The New Nation was made better because all people were expected to do useful work.
Public Education Profiteers have hated The Catholic Church since Catholic Schools began providing education at “Family-affordable” rates. One Sister, receiving a few thousand dollars a year, educated 37 students in this 1960s classroom at a “teacher-cost” of $1-200.00 dollars per student.
More News:
Two hundred years of “Progress” has hurt every Family in Pennsylvania! The cost per student in Public Schools in Pennsylvania has gone from $6.00/year to over $22,000.00! Many teachers now retire with 80% of their $80-100,000/year salaries whose final years are often “boosted” by taking on work as “coaches” and similar positions. Lifetime pensions for the 30 years following retirement provide $100,000/year for many resting on the laurels of Public Education.
Still, Public Educators agree: “I need more!” And, they do. Many of them have second homes in retirement and vacation areas. They need money from our families to pay their Property Taxes for distant Public Schools.
The lifetime cost to taxpayers for each teacher may exceed a couple of million dollars. Plus benefits! What do they do for that money? They often show up for six hours a day, six months a year, and are sometimes required to appear to be “teaching something” for four to five hours. The only thing many of them regret is that some paid vacation days are still named in celebration of Christian Religious Holidays, like “Thanksgiving” and “Christmas”. They still congratulate themselves for changing the name of “Easter” to “Spring Break”.
This “news” is also ignored by those lacking in concern: Today’s students are unable to read, write, spell, pray, do arithmetic, behave as well, or learn as much about History as those whose families paid $6.00/year in tuition to pay their teacher $150.00 a year, only 210 years ago!
Understanding Cost Increases in Public Education:
200 years ago, an ounce of gold cost $20.00. Today, gold costs 150 times more than that, $3,000.00 dollars an ounce.
If spending on Public Education followed inflation the way gold did, one year of tuition today would be 150 times $6.00, or $900.00 per student per year.
In a little over 200 years, Teacher Salaries have gone from $150.00 per year to an average of over $50,000.00 in many Districts. They have increased 333.33 times more than the rate of actual inflation!
Why does Public Education cost so much and teach so little?
Most people elected to School Boards love praise from Superintendents and each other far more than they love their neighbors. A few are honest enough to explain why and how they let greed triumph over taxpayers:
First: “We are nominated and elected because we will reliably protect and increase payments for salaries, pensions, and benefits of families and friends who Profit from Public Education. Our election is almost automatic in low-turnout elections.”
Second: “We get elected because every voter whose livelihood is connected to Public Education, including janitors, cafeteria staff, bus drivers,local contractors, banks, financial institutions, teaching assistants, car salesmen, food and equipment suppliers, volunteers, relatives of the above, and every approval-seeking person comes out to vote for us to show how ‘concerned’ they are.” (Many voters do not bother to vote because good people, like YOU are if you read this far, are never on the ballot!)
Third: “Many School Board Members are related to, or are personal friends of, teachers and others employed by, or receiving money from, Public Education. They want to help their families and friends.”
Fourth: “If I obediently vote for The Superintendent’s Budget, I can get people whom I recommend a job in Public Education. I have lots of people kissing up to me. I like that!” (Over 90% of employees in one nearby district are said to be related to School Board members for the past several decades.)
Fifth: “To keep favoritism from being too obvious, Superintendents may make deals to hire friends and relatives recommended by Superintendents in other Districts, often nearby. Are such favors returned?”
Sixth: “We do not want students to learn enough to see how badly we are hurting them! And, we avoid teaching them skills and behaviors that will help them have and raise families. Having mothers at home instead of working might threaten our incomes, and that would be a crime!”
Seventh: “We have made the media into gutless cowards who are afraid to share those facts! Our incomes are safe.”
Support Personnel: Hiding from Truth
Public Education has many employees known as “Guidance Counselors”.
To be sure, there are many behavior problems. Not one “Guidance Counselor” in Public Education is allowed to “guide” with honest “counsel” by telling These Simple Truths:
1. Most discipline problems are caused by children from families so impoverished by Public School taxes it is hard for them to pay rents (which are greatly increased by Property Taxes), mortgages, utility, food, medical, insurance, and transportation costs. Marriages are weakened and often broken by financial stress caused by relentless tax increases from the utterly heartless Public Education Profiteers.
2. As increasing financial distress destroys more families, fewer children than ever have close, loving, daily support from Mothers, Fathers, Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents.
3. Less loving care from families leads many children to be hostile about life. Many are drugged into a zombie-like state by school-supplied drugs and vulnerable to committing crimes to satisfy addictions from less legal but equally immoral “pushers” when they leave school, their lives uoften headed for unhappy ends.
4. No Guidance Counselor ever explains this meaningful “guidance”: “If we Public Educators stopped taking so much money from your family, you would be happier and better-adjusted.”
5. No Public School “Guidance Counselors” will ever admit, not even to each other: “If high taxes inflicted on families by our Puppet School Boards did not force so many mothers to work, their children would all be better off.”
6. Honesty is of the few causes of job loss in Public Education.
Government School Libraries and Librarians:
1. Nearly all Government Schools have libraries. They are proudly packed with shelves of books that are never read!
They all have costly card catalogues that are rarely opened, except by the few sent to use them only for an occasional assignment reinforcing The Need for More Government.
The only books provided by School Libraries are sold with huge profit margins by publishers who aware of what smarter parents know: “Most School Library Books are written, published, and provided to keep people from knowing more than Public Educators want them to know about anything. But the profits are good!”
The magazines in School Libraries meet the same goal.
2. The nearly universal uselessness of School Libraries becomes more flagrantly evident when we realize that many children are intentionally not taught how to read well enough to actually read the books in them.
3. That illiteracy increases with every Important New Theory that replaces the simple “Phonics” that taught previous generations to read far better than Public Education’s Profiteers want children to be able to read, today.
4. The Profiteers of Public Education are proud of disappearing Reading Abilities, one of their few measurable accomplishments.
The Most Rejected Books in School Libraries?
5. Few, books in recent decades have provided encouragement and guidance for students to marry and have children because raising children keeps many Mothers from working at tax-paying jobs. Few, if any, recently purchased Public School Library books share the advantages of chastity, fidelity in marriage, believing in God, or loving one’s neighbor as oneself. Public Educaton prefers children to read justifications for pride, envy, greed, gluttony, anger, lust, and sloth.
6. Public Education Profiteers thrive when populations drop at the same rate as class size.
7. Their ideal ratio of Public School Teachers to Student is reached when every Teacher has eight or ten students and one or two paid assistants to help with the “Detail Work”, like getting coffee and correcting occasional “tests”.
Personal experiences from a former Public School Librarian in inner city schools:
One day, an unhappy child with behavior problems pulled out a drawer full of library cards, removed the rod, and dumped the contents on the ground. The cards were put back into the drawer in random order. No one ever noticed. The entire card catalogue had turned into decades of wasted effort.
Another time, frustrated by the students’ inability to read, a Librarian decided: “The huge number of different sizes and colors of books, each with a Dewey Decimal Number on the back, is overwhelming to the children.” So, he arranged many shelves of books by size and color. “Big Yellow Books” were shelved next to “Big Green Books”, and so on through the spectrum.
That was duplicated by medium-sized and small books.
Then, his library was used for A District Administrator Meeting! The Librarian watched from his nearby office, with some apprehension, as several of The High-Ranking Educators, nearly all with at least one PhD Degree, walked around the library and noticed how the books were shelved.
The “good doctors” nodded approvingly. “That,” the librarian realized, is Public Education.”
Does Butler County, or Any County, need as much, or any, Public Education?
Computers have become powerful and inexpensive enough to teach skills and gather facts from databases. Today, many teachers are no more useful than slow-moving horse-drawn wagons. Today, most children can learn more by staying at home and learning on their computers instead of wasting an hour or so a day being bused to increasingly more distant schools as declining populations close their once-nearby buildings. Then, they waste time on required uselessness before wasting more time, and taxpayer money, being bussed home.
Things like “science labs” could be made available, as could some sports and other activities to help students learn to work well with others. Family-centered Schools could have, for instance, “soccer rules” that did not mandate the permanent brain damage on millions of children by forcing them to head soccer balls and suffer countless concussions of inevitably cumulative brain damage.
When classrooms are necessary, otherwise empty Sunday School classrooms built for once-crowded Churches could be inexpensively provided by Church Pastors not paralyzed by fear of losing donations from Profiteers of Public Education, a reason many such people may go to Church! For one or two days a week, every Catholic or Private School could help mor students while providing all with better educations by combining “at home” with “in school” learning to the benefit of all.
A Magic Answer to Wasteful Public Education Spending! Much of the vast wasteland of Public Education could stop draining our families by doing one, simple thing:
“Give every parent up to a $5,000.00 payment every year for every child in their “Family-Centered School” who can pass a computerized test that shows their reading, writing, arithmetic skills, and historical knowledge are better than students in Public Schools.” Parents of students who did better would receive more of that $5,000.00 annual payment.
Suddenly, our focus would be back on our families. Families would be focused on themselves. Families would no longer suffer the abuse of being used as tax objects. Families would not be weakened, and often destroyed, by those who make a living by making families poorer.
But, “families” are the “unspoken enemies” of Public Educators who want to replace them, as Public Education Profiteers in Babylon, Sparta, and England replaced families before their nations were destroyed by more “Family-Friendly Nations”.
Two final questions and answers:
Question 1. “Should we feel sorry for those who may lose Public Education jobs if we are able to use better, and far less expensive alternatives, to Public Education?”
Answer: “We should feel sorrier for them than they felt for several thousand Butler County Families who lost their incomes when Pullman and Armco closed and not one group of neighbor-hating Public Education Profiteers suggested reducing spending and property taxes to help families. Every lost manufacturing job eliminates two or three other jobs in every community.”
~
Question 2: “Are Public Education Profiteers intelligent enough to be as adaptable as farmers were when one tenth, one half, and ninety percent of farmers were replaced by smaller numbers of farmers with bigger tractors and farming implements over the past 110 years?”
Answer: “There are few, if any Public Education Profiteers who do not believe that ‘he’, ‘she’, ‘it’, or whatever word they may now use to describe themselves, is far, far smarter and more capable than any farmer who ever lived.”
~
Hope for saving College Students hundreds thousands of dollars in debt for college:
This proposal was recently made by the new President’s education policy #47: Free, online institutions could be funded by taxes on the hundreds of billions of dollars piling up in university endowments, the interest on which could pay most of their students’ tuitions, to pay for college degrees and provide college credits to those who need them.
Different variations of this Plan would allow college students to enroll in “Pinko” versions that train people to do whatever they want. “Red, White, and Blue” institutions would provide degrees and studies helping those who want to do useful things to make a living.

What can help our families grow and prosper and allow future generations to enjoy God’s Creation for times to come?
YOU! If you encourage people with good, family-friendly values to run for YOUR local School Board, we can get The Profiteers of Public Education under control.
Isn’t that a lot of work?
No! School Board meetings are an endless parade of Superintendent-approved Grabbers trying to convince gullible School Boards take money from taxpayers and give it to them. All YOU have to do is go to The One, Annual Meeting where the Superintendent’s Budget is either approved or disapproved. If a Superintendent’s Budget does not contain 20% tax and spending reductions as a start, vote “No” and go home.
An hour or so a year with 5 people voting “No.” on any 9-member School Board is all it takes to replace The Profiteers of Public Education with better, “Family-Friendly” alternatives.
Frankly, all five members of every Board should consider staying home from other Board Meetings. Few things on earth are as boring as listening to The Profiteers of Public Education whining for more money. 5 people NOT being there keeps more money from being taken from the neigbors we strive to help by obeying the Bible’s Wisdom summed up in This Word of He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies: “Love God and love your neighbor as yourself.”
May God bless us to find 5 people in every School District with the courage, integrity, and love of neighbor to spend an hour or so a year voting “No.” on the Family-Destroying lunacy that Public Education has become.
The Butler Novel: Chapter 3 Thoughtful people do not approve of Septic, Sewage, and Water Profiteers who profit from making families poorer.
May God move our leaders to face and fix what hurts our Families.
There are 5.7 million homes in Pennsylvania. 26% of them (1,500,000) use septic tanks to dispose of wastewater. 2.5 people live in the average home, meaning that 3,600,000 Pennsylvanians depend on septic tanks.
Many of these systems have been used for a century with no cholera, malaria, or other diseases being caused.
Hidden Problem #1: “Septic System Profiteers” use exaggerated problems to force people to replace simple Septic Systems that used to cost a few thousand dollars with needlessly complicated alternatives that can cost upwards of $50,000.00!
3,600,000 Pennsylvanians live in fear of a zealous Sewage Enforcement Officer forcing them to replace a system that may only need a few thousand dollars of perforated plastic pipe, gravel, and topsoil (or a $1.00 bag of bacteria every month!) with a crushing, family-destroying Septic System requiring another mortgage they may not be able to afford or get.
Hidden Problem #2: “Public Sewage Profiteers” are destroying families in many Townships and Counties because they always want more people hooked up to their ever more costly sewage systems.
Hidden Problem #3: “The Dye Test” involves putting brightly colored “dye” into the septic tank and seeing if it surfaces outside the tank. It almost always does because that’s how septic tanks have been working for over a hundred years! Then, The Sewage Enforcement Officer, (the dreaded SEO), usually shows himself to be the enemy of whoever owns the tank by announcing triumphantly: “Your septic tank has failed ‘The Dye Test’!” Then, a Septic Tank Profiteer often appears and tells them: “You need a Sand Mound. It will only cost $35,000.00, if you are lucky!”
Hidden Problem #4: Recently, an SEO asked the secretary of a local septic-pumping company to lunch. There, he told her: “I will pay you $250.00 for every name and phone number of people with a septic problem.”
Hidden Problem #5: The Department of Environmental Protection is the “hired gun” used by Septic Tank Profiteers. They attack Pennsylvania Families with weapons of Septic Tank rules based on making septic tank repairs as costly as possible to families.
Hidden Problem #6: State and local officials are “friendly” toward those who give them donations. The Septic Tank Profiteers take full advantage of that. As a result of their donations combined with marketing efforts, the Department of Environmental Protection has been allowed to take control of the Inspection Process that gives them an automatic excuse to enrich Septic and Sewage Profiteers with billions of dollars taken from millions of Pennsylvania Families. Many describe them with the term: “Regulatory Racketeers”.
Anyone can see how those Hidden Problems add up to hurt more Pennsylvania Families.
Hidden Problem #7: Forty years ago, families in the small town of Prospect, Pennsylvania had the usual “Dye Tests” used against them to justify forcing them to hook up to a Public Sewer Authority, despite no diseases or health issues from their septic tanks for the previous hundred years.
Why? New septic regulations, invented and imposed upon us by Legislators who received donations from Septic and Sewer System Profiteers to The Legislature made it impossible for anyone to buy a lot and build a house in Prospect.
Every housing unit in Prospect now pays nearly $90.00 a month for Public Sewage that replaced their free septic tanks.
Public Sewage Profiteers took so much money out of the town that two restaurants, one farm implement dealer, and a grocery store closed. So did the bank! Sewage Profiteers, encouraged by “financial geniuses” in Philadelphia and New York flushed so much money out of Prospect’s families that their bank closed thirty years later!
While the families of Prospect and thousands of other towns were being similarly ravaged, Not One State Legislator from either Party stood up for them. The few Township Supervisors and Borough Council members who love their neighbors enough to protect them are often replaced by candidates with more funding. No one asks where that funding comes from! Rich Republicans in Prospect told people how fortunate they were to have Public Sewers!
Compare Prospect with the small town of Portersville, a few miles away. We have the same half-acre or smaller, lots with septic tanks that Prospect has. We did not have our $10-20,000.00 Septic Tank asset stripped from our assets. We did not have to pay several thousand dollars for hook-up fees to attach to a Public Sewer. We did not have to pay over $40,000.00 in constant dollar monthly fees for forty years. We received interest payments on that money, instead of seeing it flushed down the toilet. We could afford new tires for our vehicles, furnaces for our homes, prom dresses, kitchen remodeling, and things we needed to help our families. Guess what? Our Bank is still here!
The Public Sewage Profiteers did not take a hundred thousand dollars from every family in Portersville. Every year, our families get richer. Every year, the families in Prospect and other places impoverished by Public Sewage Profiteers get poorer as many of their monthly fees have doubled, tripled, and quadrupled to pay for shoddy installation, maintenance, subsequent bond issues for Public Sewage Profiteers, higher interests rates thereon, and their many, many, many “consultants”. Some of them have climbed from the pits of self-serving delusions to what may be the very pinnacle of uselessness; “Watershed Management”.
~
Families are being destroyed across Pennsylvania and America! Needlessly expensive Septic and Sewer Systems do the same damage to families as drugs and gambling: they destroy family finances. A single Mother with two children lives across the road. Rather than repair or replace a septic system that cost $5,000.00 twenty years ago, she was forced to spend $50,000.00 dollars! Two houses away from her, another family had to borrow over $20,000.00 instead of making simple repairs.
“Regulatory Racketeers” create and use largely imaginary environmental problems as an excuse to hurt millions of Pennsylvania families. Finding and supporting candidates who meaningfully care more about families than donors is our only protection from “Septic, Sewage, and Water Profiteers”.
May all be blessed to care more about our families than about often-imaginary and always-exaggerated environmental concerns. Septic, Sewage, and Water Profiteers are helping bring projected 15-20% population losses to many Pennsylvania Counties in their War on Families because families fear having children they cannot afford. A horde of recently spawned “Watershed Profiteers” only make Imaginary Problems more costly with hordes of Engineers endlessly inspecting everything they can, at taxpayer expense.
Many Democrat and Independent voters love their families. When they realize how much water and sewage profiteers are costing them, they are appalled at the biggest financial problem they face: being crushed by Septic, Sewage, Water, (and the increasingly visible) Watershed Profiteers.
May all elected officials be blessed with enough love of their neighbors in their hearts to stop ignoring or hiding from this issue. May God bless all Legislators, Township Supervisors, and Borough Councils to work as quickly and effectively on behalf of families as they do on behalf of donors!
Those “donors” may include those funded by high-level executives of Water and Sewage Profiteering Companies. The head of one such company with local involvement is a woman who receives $7,200,000.00 a year for her efforts. She, her top half-dozen executives, and a dozen people on her board of directors receive about $20,000,000.00 every year. They use company money to pay the hefty salaries of Marketing Professionals and well-trained salespeople who are hired to convince Township Supervisors and other elected officials to be “enlightened” enough to keep more money being taken from families to flow through their Public Water and Sewer Systems and into their pockets.
No one knows what sort of “donations”, “inducements” and “contributions” may be at work. Amazingly, few, if any, law enforcement agencies are moved to investigate!
One simple question lets us understand their motivation: “Every time a person locked into their systems flushes a toilet, do those 20 people share varying percentages of one nickel>”!
The Supreme Court’s recent and amazing Chevron Decision does not allow bureaucrats to force needlessly expensive programs on helpless families by using profit-generating standards invented to make us poorer in the name of “Public Safety”. This is a connection more Pennsylvania voters and Public Officials are beginning to understand. All are increasingly grateful to the handful of Public Officials and candidates who are meaningfully “family-friendly”.
Hidden Problem #8:
Public Water Profiteers hate for people to get free water from their wells. Many are forced to abandon their wells, an asset value of $10,000.00. Then, they must pay to hook up to Public Water. One Cranberry Township resident in Butler County reported that his family would have to pay over $40,000.00 to do so!
Hidden Problem #9: Watershed Profiteers are working to seize control of entire areas. Virtually anything that changes the downhill flow of water can be made to fall under their control. Soon, even driveway culverts and house gutters may be carefully inspected, permitted, and regulated. “Watershed Inspectors” will study and control any change in the earth’s surface to get money from anyone who falls under their purview.
Inspection Costs and fees will be created that profit those among “Watershed Profiteers”. Many “engineers” support “Watershed Profiteers”. They hope to make collectively uncountable millions from ever more inspections and appeals. Many want battalions of“Watershed Enforcement Officers” hired to provide employment for those who hate their neighbors. Attorneys will have additional billings. Families will have additional expenses.
May Public Officials understand three simple facts: conventional septic systems, low-cost sewage, and wells bring financial freedom to families. Politically correct, uncontrolled mandates from “Regulatory Racketeers” are destroying families.
These are among the most important issues we face if we want families to have a future. May all Legislators and Public Officials be blessed to put families before well-organized Septic, Sewage, Water, and Watershed Profiteers and their donations.
Three Prayers asking for God’s Help:
1. May all be blessed to understand what was revealed to Dante about the fate of souls at Judgment: “All who unrepentantly participate in ‘complex frauds’ must eternally suffer in the lower six circles of ‘The Inferno’.”
2. May Public Officials who have the legal authority to force neighbors to pay for unnecessary “improvements” be blessed to tell donors who lobby for such hurtful things This Simple Truth: “If I bear false witness to vote to reward you for lies and exaggerations, my soul will join yours in suffering forever in the lower circles of Hell. May we both be smart enough to avoid that!”
3. May “Regulatory Racketeers” be blessed to obey The Bible Instruction from Ephesians 4:28 so their souls may spend eternity in Heaven: “Anyone who was a thief must stop stealing.”
Question: What will be the response of many Septic, Sewage, Water, and Watershed Profiteers when Pennsylvania Families pray that Public Officials will be blessed to care more about us than the usual Profiteers?
Answer: It is very sad. The most greedy and godless “Regulatory Racketeers” will make bigger donations to Public Officials. They may tell bigger lies, falsify more studies, and invent more Imaginary Problems to justify their attacks on families. Sadly, the more “complex” the “frauds” in which they engage become, the lower the circle of hell to which their poor souls will be sent.
The forces of evil hate those they lead to hurt their neighbors so much they tell them to believe in “The separation of Church and State”.
