When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for the human race to dissolve the myth of the oldest political bandits who have assumed wealth and power over their subjects - under the phony declaration of divine providence.  Neither nature nor God entitles any one person special descent or privilege.  

We are at the door step of the 21st Century and it is self evident that all men are created equal.  We have now mapped the genetics of many living species and we are close to mapping the entire human genome.   Thus, there is irrefutable scientific evidence that all human beings are 99.9% biologically the same, with the remaining amount of variance accounting for regional and ongoing genetic mutations.  Accordingly, the existence of monarchs and other royalty in today's society is simply incongruent with reality.   So we must ask: why royalty and monarchs remain with the privilege of governance or hold privileged and distinguished social titles, when they should also get in line with the rest of us, for use of the latrine?   

Royalty or devoted followers may argue that such social titles are determined by special lineage.  In the past, royals claimed direct lineage from "a" God.  However, the Universal Creator has not publicly given notice of such royal preference.  There is also the argument that royals have special bloodlines.  Although, 21st Century science empirically shows that there is no blue blood in human beings, despite the fact that royal bloodlines do come close to genetic degeneration.  And just like the horseshoe crab which truly has blue blood, royalty and the horseshoe crab are both living fossils.  Notwithstanding, others would argue that present day monarchies exist at the pleasure of its subjects.  Yes, but must society continues to accept the concept of special privilege in today's egalitarian society?  Must society accept such concept, when royalty was the building blocs of intolerance, colonization, social casting and slavery?  

However, it is fair to say that today, few monarchs and so-called royals hold any governance in existing "kingdom" states, but they do play roles in ceremonial post.  Nonetheless, the royal families in those countries continue to thrive with public funds such as in Spain and in the British Kingdom.   However, even holding or being a ceremonial figure, is no longer acceptable in today's world as it constitutes a de facto recognition of privileged labels and supporting a caste system.  Royals today are supremacist in semi or official public roles and they have no place in this 21st Century. 

For those royal fans and apologist, if you still believe royalty deserve their self-appointed social titles or a privilege lifestyle at public expense, think again; ask yourself if royalty is biologically different or descend from divine providence.  If you still do, I urge you to take a big whiff after a royal flush of the king or queen's throne, and if you still think it smells divine, you probably are insane, believe in magic or you are a royal fool.  Wheeoow!

Hype but not felonious I would say.  In fact, it's the American Way.  Yes, as the world was watching President Obama speak before an audience in the State of Louisiana, the live broad cast was suddenly interrupted by CNN to give coverage to a run away helium balloon, which it was thought, was carrying a minor child on board.  As the hullabaloo continued, the dramatics were hyped by the tense situation being presented by the media. Did the child fall, as it was reported or maybe not?  

This was great news on the go; tension, drama unfolding and life hanging on the balance.  By now we have all seen on TV the 50 mile or so chase by military planes and helicopters, the media flanking the helium balloon, plus the hundred or so rescue personnel trampling the Colorado soil.  But if anyone thinks it was live TV coverage, it was not.  CNN decided to insert a 10 second delay on the broadcast to protect the public from potentially watching a human tragedy unfold.  Fortunately, and to the surprise of the peering masses, as ground personnel reached the partially deflated fiasco, there was no child on board.  Darn, this would have been Nielsen's top ratings.   But, the story is not dead yet and the media was not about to let it go.  Thus, the media continued the story with gut instinct - that there was more.   

By evening, prime time questioning began and the prosecution interviewed the Heene family with determination and leading questions - which lead to much speculation that the Heene family had in fact, created a publicity stunt, staged and produced by a set of unlikely characters wanting to achieve the American Dream. 

Originally the Colorado, Laramie County Sheriff, was only contemplating filing misdemeanor charges for filing a false police report.  However, with such de minimis (inconsequential) charge, the story would have ended, if not for the economic consequences.  Thus, the relentless media pressed for more: what about child endangerment; whose going to pay for public sources used in the chase; and what about potential danger to air flights in nearby corridors?  Feeling the media blitz, the sheriff sort-of changed his mind and is now reporting to the media, that there may be more - felonious charges that is.  

Yes, the Heene family may have concocted a phony story, but isn't it the American Way? Are we all not part of the economic sub-plot? Not only do we observe, but we all participate in the scheme of making money.  Thus, the media must back off and give it a rest.  Furthermore, the Heene family should be commended for their innovative stupidity, but they do not deserve the media circus which wants blood, or a police force  with self-serving desires, and much less, the children taken away by CPS.    

In sum, the question remains as to whether the Heene family has committed felonious acts and must they be relegated to prison life because of their unlawful acts? NOT.  Of course, there ought to be a statute which covers moronic situations such as this - in which needless time is spent on superfluous speculation and damnation.   For the co-conspirator, the media, it should BACK-OFF.  Who the hell's Wolfe?
