Overview

The Web site is located in Weaverville, a small town nestled in the mountains of Western North Carolina just eight miles north of Asheville. Asheville's downtown reminds me of a flawed jewel, so named by Rolling Stone Magazine in 2001 when it designated Asheville as the Freakiest City in America. (PS: You will find this fact missing from most retirement brochures - duh!)

For example, in our search from 2000 - 2003 for areas to retire to in the southeastern United States, when the name Asheville came up so did the beautiful mountains. Yet I found no information on the city's far-left secular progressive agenda. Asheville also went missing from CNN/Money's top-twenty list of places to retire to in North Carolina the following year. My researching Asheville vs. the selected city revealed that it had twice the crime rate of those NC cities that had been chosen.

While this fact and the Rolling Stone title seems to only amuse its local newspaper, the Asheville Citizen Times, it's not surprising that the newspaper represents just one of hundreds of tentacles owned by Gannett Company, a corporation that inoculates its secular progressive culture into the body of cities across America and the world . . . the publisher of USA Today. Anyone for a "Rose Bud?"

If interested, click here to read about our encounters with Gannett's satellite newspaper in Asheville, along with more fun details.

As a side note, you should know that in one of the more recent outrageous stories after 9/11/2007, the AC-T on September 16, 2007, asked why cable providers across the country were not providing the Al-Jazeera Network to the tens-of -millions of America's cable viewers, the far-left opinion editor asking AC-T readers to join in any attempt to "quash" her personal demand for Al-Jazeera to be broadcast across the country. What?

By the way, it was the AC-T in July of 2006 that did exactly that but in reverse, quashing the story that 17,000 Muslims were protesting Israel's fight with Hamas. Were these moderate Muslims protesting in Palestine? No, they were standing with their fists in the air in Dearborn, Michigan! We reminded the publisher at the time we couldn't find the story in the AC-T's archive. The response? A terse, "Thank you."

You can't make this stuff up, as Gannett and a member of the drive-by media, pretends to be our friend. Like we have said about today's vile journalists again and again . . .

"They don't live with us . . . they only live among us."

Finally, the site was returned to Google's Search Engine in August 2005. But why was the URL Blackballed for three months after I had written a letter of complaint to the search engine's PR Manager? You decide about this "Do no Evil" company.

Freedom is Knowledge

"There are over 4,000 direct links to sites on the Web loaded with information for you and your family."

I was raised in Westchester County, New York, in the late 1940's, later moving to Florida and graduating from the school on the hill, Palm Beach High, now a center for the arts. Burt Reynolds and George Hamilton had graduated two years earlier. After two years at Palm Beach Junior College, I found an inexpensive university to finish my studies and moved to the state of Kentucky. It was there where I received a BS degree in the arts and education, later teaching public school for over a decade.

Discouraged as leftist ideas entering into the classroom, I gave up teaching and entered the business community. There I spent twenty years in the electronics industry, serving as a North American field trainer for a television manufacturer in the midwest. Later I moved back to the New York area to serve as a national sales promotion manager for an International Fortune 100, foreign electronics manufacturing company.

Downsized more than a decade later, I moved to contract work providing training for TSA baggage screeners after 9/11 at LAX in Los Angeles and then Newark Liberty Airport in Newark.

Now retired, I have four grown children, with a son who served in the U.S. Marines in Afghanistan. As a high school student, he had helped to bury my father at Arlington National Cemetery for his seeing action on Okinawa in 1944.

Later in his life after serving in the Navy, my father become the VP for an optical retail chain in the 1980s that provided optical products for customers in Palm Beach from a store at the time located on Worth Avenue next to the Taboo. My father had fitted glasses for residence and winter visitors to Palm Beach for names such as Rose Kennedy, Dan Rather, Victor Borge, and Liberace.

My Web site, Freedom is Knowledge, is a nonprofit domain created for your enjoyment that encourages daily exploration of the Web. The site provides thousands of links to Web sites that are filled with content, ideas, and competitive information.

It provides links to organizations that you can either contribute to or are there to help service men and women after they leave the military to find employment . . . or simply need assistance having been injured in combat.

As mentioned one of my sons had served in Afghanistan in the Marines, so we are a "support our men and women in the military" site, unlike too many progressives who simply just can't make up their mind.

And that is an understatement in this severely divided nation we all live in today.

Where we got our beginning

While Freedom is Knowledge was started in the 1990's to help people find useful information on the Web when searching for employment, a last section was added to the site via a very disturbing event that occurred in 1999. 

Because of that event this section has grown over the years, which I call "The Basement." It was in 1999 that I discovered the media had been lying to the people, tampering with their right to know, which my father had fought for in WWII.

This event created a sea change in my view of the media, a story about a boy who had been murdered in Arkansas with virtually every damn major newspaper and television network refusing to carry the story on how this child was murdered by two willing homosexual adults.  

Not only did the media lie about the teenager's death, it purposely suppressed the story as if the boy had never existed or was somehow dirty.  I had written on my site that the media had not only kicked sand in his face, but had joyously buried him a second time.

I discovered the boy's death had been suppressed by the media because it was sympathetic with t he criminals themselves, two adult gay men impressed with the boy's anus.  Only Fox News had carried the story at the time, my accidentally catching it while a new viewer FNC.

The teenager's name was Jesse Dirkhising.  If you are interested in his story, you can do a search on his name on my Web using the Atomz search engine at the top of my homepage, which is also available on some other pages.

I later put up a Memorial Page to Jesse, phoning the police department to advise them I was publishing their police report on how he was murdered.  That was when I discovered from an officer that the only national news network to care enough to cover the trial about the death of young Jesse was Fox News, and why America's vile mainstream media hates this outlet.

It was because of Jesse's death I began to realized our Fourth Estate was being abused by agenda-driven journalists and elitist managing editors across the country.  I eventually traced the abuse down to a nation stealth organization called the ASNE, the American Society of Newspaper Editors.  This vile society had been started in the 1970's, its tentacles eventually reaching into every state of the union, coloring the news across America and changing forever how we, as a people, would be allowed to see, read, or hear the news in the press today. 

I have since dedicated the site to informing my visitors about America's agenda-driven media that cannot be trusted for a heartbeat. As the three television news networks and newspapers continue to lose viewers and subscribers as Americans discover their fourth estate has been raped to promote personal secular progressive agendas by managing editors and publishers, tens-of-millions of people now find themselves having to turn to the Internet and a few conservative news reporting sources they believe can be trusted.

Abusive managers and publishers will eventually be put out on the street for their arrogance as their products go under. It is a place where they can no longer damage this country's heritage of the people's right to know . . . readers and viewers no longer having to watch their stories being colored by these controlling and arrogant elitists.

Ten-year old Jeffrey Curley

This has to be a record as we reach 2008!

I are tired of the activist Massachusetts Federal Court System taking eight (8) years to hear Barbara Curley's case against NAMBLA, the ACLU siding with this vile organization in 1999 against this grieving mother, its unique and Christian-hateful Jewish membership giving NAMBLA pro bono support.

She also, to our knowledge, has not received any support from his majesty, Ted Kennedy, or the billionaire Senator that was supposed to represent her, John Kerry, wealthy beyond understanding via his marriage to the Heinz ketchup queen.

Mrs. Curley is seeking justice for the 1997 murder of her ten-year son, Jeffrey, by two NAMBLA members, the police finding NAMBLA materials downloaded from the Web that helped them to murder the little boy by luring him into a car where they killed him. Police reports are said to have shown the killers later went back to their apartment to play with the tiny body. O'Reilly had said on the Factor in 2006 that he believed these components against the mother were hoping she would run out of money and go away.

The ACLU was supporting NAMBLA's Web site material as an issue of the freedom of speech (to murder little boys.) I now believe there is real evil in this world. And I believe it is alive and well in Massachusetts. I see its court and its state's two senators as true evil, nothing any different than what Christ had called the Pharisees of his day seeing them as if tea cups . . . all shiny on the outside but filled with dead man's bones on the inside.

In the case of little Jeffrey, it couldn't be more true. So is it any wonder that the people of Massachusetts have been reported to be one of the top populations in America to give as little as they can to charity organizations.

Christ in Matthew 23:4-5a, 25-28

"But all their works they do for to be seen of men. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. [Thou] blind Pharisee, cleanse first that [which is] within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchers, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead [men's] bones, and of all uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity."

You can visit the Web page on the sadistic death of two innocent boys who still cry out for justice and vengeance against an also evil media lead by the wicked witch of the east, the American Society of Newspaper Editors (ASNE.)

Newspapers just love to suppress these stories for their readers as they embrace the ACLU. In fact, I believe when you communicate with any newspaper in the mainstream media today, you are in fact communicating with the ACLU itself.

I had written to one well-established, large east coast newspaper, whose editor in 2006 had been sympathetic in 2001 to the young boys preyed upon by NAMBLA. I asked him to consider a story on Barbara Curley's courage.

But he wrote back and said that kind of story now caused him us much harassment by his peers at the newspaper that it wasn't worth writing about anymore.

So what would you have done as a parent to discover your little ten-year old son had his lungs filled with gasoline fumes as a 300-pound NAMBLA member had sat on him, forcing a rag filled with gasoline against his face until he stopped struggling . . . stopped breathing, his lungs destroyed.

Later, after having been sentenced to jail for the murder, it was reported one of the child murderers had sailed joyfully into the world of sodomy in prison. These NAMBLA members had put Jeffrey's body into a RubberMaid tub and drove it to Maine, where they dumped it into a river and hoping it would never be found.

It was reported that when the tub was opened, lime was everywhere even filling Jeffrey's small open mouth. Yet the Massachusetts Federal Court system along with Ted Kennedy and Kerry play with his mother like the NAMBLA members played with her son, ignoring her pain.

Christ was right. There is evil in this world that is unspeakable in its depth. Just ask Mrs. Curley, who keeps the courage to continue her law suit into 2008. Her son would have been twenty years old this year.

This is a curse on the United States of America and accepted collateral damage by progressive liberals. To the ones who killed him, to the ones that wanted to bury him a second time hoping the mother would run out of money. Click here to read Barbara Curley's 2006 letter now pleading for funds.

Shame on all of them. Shame on all of us for allowing this to continue.
