LETTER TO A PRISONER
|
|
by THE GNN/DualCrew-Shining/uXu
|
|
|
|
Written for the one and only dominator: Dirtybush / Dual Crew-Shining.
|
|
|
|
|
|
"You don't have to change anything, just find a fall-guy..."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Crime does not pay, some say. But it must pay well sometimes, since so
|
|
many people do steal. Some win and some lose, it is all a game in the end.
|
|
Unfortunately, you lost one of your bets, otherwise you would not end up in
|
|
the slammer. You are a free man now, however, and this is the letter I was
|
|
supposed to send you. But I never did - I do not know why, I guess I never
|
|
managed to finish it properly. It still feels incomplete, more ought to be
|
|
said. But I will save those words for another rainy day.
|
|
|
|
Maybe you wonder why I never visited you in jail? The answer is simple,
|
|
but yet true: who would like to see you behind bars? If I want to see
|
|
something in a cage I go to a zoo. I have no need to see the result of
|
|
primitive human thinking from the inside.
|
|
Prisons are pretty nice nowadays, I figure. You are not forced to drink
|
|
water and eat bread together with the rats. Still, that is no excuse. Prisons
|
|
are, and will be, a fine symbol of society's failure. This failure is not
|
|
a 'real' failure however. It is more a symbol of laziness. Society may be
|
|
good at building prisons, because that is easy work. You just use some hard,
|
|
grey concrete. Anyone could do that.
|
|
Thinking, however, is not that easy. Society does not fancy theory. We
|
|
improve the prisons with TV and gently ask the rats to move to another place.
|
|
We never think about 'the need for prisons.' They are just there, ready to
|
|
swallow the criminal person. We have not really advanced when it comes to
|
|
rational thinking as we want to believe. When we were monkeys, I guess we
|
|
hit the monkey that stole from us. Now, we do the same thing, but with more
|
|
style. But the essence is still the same: We are just monkeys, hitting the
|
|
thief-monkey with the nearest branch.
|
|
The common question to conclusions like the above one is, naturally,
|
|
'Hey, if you are so smart, perhaps you could tell us what we ought to do
|
|
instead? If we are not supposed to throw criminals into prison, what are
|
|
we going to do then?'
|
|
Let me put it this way; I do not care. I am not a politician, I am a
|
|
realist. The construction of the future is not my thing. I develop my
|
|
personal dignity by understanding things. Those who ask a question like
|
|
the above are not even trying to understand. They just want things
|
|
to be like it has always been, because that is the easiest way. No one
|
|
is forced to think and understand if things remain status quo.
|
|
|
|
Let us change the topic a little bit: I know (and you know for sure)
|
|
that you actually were guilty to some of the crimes in question, no arguments
|
|
about that. You did not spend your time in jail 'without reason,' as some
|
|
people do. However, the word 'were' is incorrect; According to the legal
|
|
system you ARE guilty. Or more precise; you are STILL guilty. There is no
|
|
such thing as 'paying your debt to society'. Once a thief, always a
|
|
thief. I know you have noticed that irritating phenomena.
|
|
|
|
But if we look at the concept 'guilty' a bit closer, we will notice that
|
|
you were guilty 'according to the legal system', not according to some divine
|
|
moral system, or equal. That is an important detail.
|
|
You were guilty because The Rule Book we play with in the global society
|
|
said so. When we play a game of chess, we know that the game is over when
|
|
the King is mate. We accept these rules when we play chess. This is because
|
|
we, roughly speaking, sign a contract to follow these rules every time we
|
|
play chess. But when did we sign the contract that said that we must follow
|
|
the rules of society? The day someone steps up to me and shows my signature
|
|
on a contract that bounds me the follow the legal system - then I will
|
|
accept the rules. But now, since there is no such contract with my
|
|
signature, I see no reason why I should just accept that other people might
|
|
put me in jail.
|
|
I play a game, but I cannot recall that I have ever chosen to play this
|
|
particular game we call 'The Legal System'.
|
|
People will oppose to this idea. If people had to sign a contract, this
|
|
world would turn into anarchy, they claim. Why? Not because NO ONE would
|
|
sign it, that would be most improbable. No, because SOME people would not
|
|
sign it. And what would we do with those that did not sign it? Well, I say,
|
|
who cares? What would we do if there were too many people on this planet?
|
|
Kill a couple of them, because they 'were not good for the society'? That
|
|
would be a violation of humanity, because individuals have a 'natural'
|
|
right to life. But why do we not have the 'natural' right to do whatever
|
|
we want to? There sure is nothing 'natural' in being forced to follow the
|
|
global Rule Book.
|
|
Just because a phenomena is global, it does not by necessity have to
|
|
be good nor true. Several billions believe in 'god'. Does that mean that
|
|
'god' exists? Not necessarily. Several billions follow the global rule
|
|
book, the legal system. Does that mean that it is good? Perhaps. But
|
|
are we forced to follow it? Yes, some say. And I once again ask: where on
|
|
earth is that contract I signed when I accepted that?
|
|
It's a shame that people do not try to answer that question. But it is
|
|
an even greater shame that people do not even ASK the question.
|
|
|
|
I am worried about one thing: Now, when you are free, will you stop
|
|
thinking for yourself? Jail is a dangerous place, because it scares the
|
|
shit out of most people. No one wants to end up there, and no one wants
|
|
to go back after a little vacation behind bars. This feeling can turn
|
|
people into walking zombies who oppress their personal beliefs because
|
|
they do not dare to challenge the society.
|
|
Their line of thinking is like this - 'I WANT to do this, but I will
|
|
not do it, because other people might throw me in Jail'. In equal, they
|
|
never do what they want. They do not say what they want to say, they do
|
|
not criticize things they find to be wrong - because other people might
|
|
find their opinions wrong and dangerous. That is not healthy.
|
|
But, if I know you right, I should not worry. You will never play by
|
|
other peoples rules, you will not accept them without signing the contract.
|
|
We have our own rules and we gladly follow them. If people dislike
|
|
that, never mind. Those people who turned you in will some day be aware of
|
|
how our rules work. They will be forced to play our game. When that happens,
|
|
THEY will ask for the contract with their signature - the contract that
|
|
bounds THEM to follow OUR rules. But there will be no such contract, as
|
|
there no contract that bounds us to their rules.
|
|
There will be a conflict. In that conflict, certain people will notice
|
|
that our rules can hurt too.
|
|
|
|
I leave you with a quote: "The construction of the future and the
|
|
completeness for all times is not our task. What we at present have to do
|
|
is the reckless critique of all the existing - reckless in the sense that
|
|
the critique is not afraid of its results and likewise not afraid of
|
|
conflicts with the existing powers." (P.M. Bergman)
