Today I turn a new leaf, dear reader, I will try to put out at least one post a day that has original content.
Some days it may be pretty arcane, but deal with me, tomorrow is a new day.
Today I will introduce you to Leon Czolgosz.
IF you know who that is, congratulations you are better educated than most.
Confession to the Assassination of President William McKinley
Background
Until, give or take a few minutes, 4:00 o’clock in the afternoon on September 6, 1901, Leon Frank Czolgosz was nobody.
Poor, unemployed, unskilled, maladroit, alone, and restless, he was as good as nameless.
“Fred Nieman”, he called himself in German;
“Fred Nobody” is what it meant.
It was as “Fred Nieman” that Czolgosz wrote, about five weeks before the afternoon of the 6th, what would become a spectacularly rare letter.
In it, he described his seemingly erratic peregrinations, and vaguely hinted that Mr. Nobody had it in mind, vaguely, to become if not “Someone”, at least, “something.”
The street car fare was only a nickel to Buffalo, he reported; and it was to Buffalo he would take himself, on the 31st of August.
In Buffalo, he would wait — until, give or take a few minutes, at 4:00 o’clock in the afternoon on September 6, 1901, he would become a presidential assassin.
Czolgosz’s confession letter is, then, the preamble, written weeks before, to this extraordinarily rare manuscript (both, in the Shapell Manuscript Collection): Leon Frank Czolgosz’s signed confession that, give or take a few minutes, at 4:00 o’clock in the afternoon on September 6, 1901, he shot the 25th President, William McKinley.
When the world that you live in uses force to keep you down, there is little recourse for those that have been denied peaceful change.
Are you are tired of paying your masters to bomb children in far away places?
Perhaps it is time you pushed back on that.
A simple way that anybody can do that is to hoard your coins.
The fed buys coins at face value from the mint.
A dollar of change in your pocket is a dollar of value out of the banksters' pockets.
Stop playing in their shell game that allows them to play in the amusement parks from hell and shop in the human grocery stores.
This is extremely dangerous to our democracy.
