Ruphus -> RE: Just in case (Aug. 27 2015 13:50:23)

Wow, I am so touched by the empathy and good intentions from old and not so old friends, and from my foro pals. You have no idea how good it does in a situation of total exposed being. :O) (Where´s the love icon?!) I have seen arbitrariness and exposed being in my homeland already (which is Germany, just to have that clear), where people intrinsically criticizing the grey area (not as conspiracy theory, mind you, but in my case with the clues and facts coming from serious media like the -former- SPIEGEL in the first place and investigative TV-transmissions of public channels) are being latently treated and deprived when daring to sue. But naturally, usually not in such blatant and threatening ways as in open dictatures (not these days anymore, I hope). Almost like with Tourette-syndrom, the idiot that I am, can´t shut up in regard of incosistency, just as indignation against methodical approach had me pass on opportunities in life. (Just like here for instance. Without silly castles in the air about constructive projects, had I just followed the mainstream, and initially bought me a couple of shops to rent out, I´d now be literally a rich man, instead of facing ruin after penalty.) Anyway, where I was actually getting at, is that all this should have been foreseeable, and that at times some Taoism must be the more useful way. Even though knowing myself as incapable of overcoming the betrayal of people who misused my goodwill, now entertaining themselves with the prey, as you all are saying, I should had left and not looked back. - And while realizing this, my guts still rebel like a boa. - Rick, Sincerely thank you for your heads up. It gives me hope. Intelligence is a very questionable thing, and wise action again another one, but I know what you mean and wish for. :O) Richard, You are speaking right out of my heart about the sixth extinction. One doesn´t know where to put oneself in view of the disaster, and the industrials who keep sticking to affluent profiteering, just not caring about burned soil and the threat to the planet 3 minutes before 12. You prove every other time to be influenced by scientifical thinking, taking notice also of things that you / one certainly preferred to not be in existence. I respect that since the days on the classical guitar forum. I suppose you being right. If tried leaving with my German ID, probably still no way. And maybe German officials don´t really mind. The less as I´ve been protesting at the German Office for Foreign Affairs already years ago, about the local mission and how they beyond legal regulation left the office to local staff´s duty, putting into second row even German citizens and their concerns. And when I asked the embassy for help, maybe half a year or so ago, saying that possibly my life was at risk, they gave me a short shrift at the phone so cold-blooded and almost impudently, you wouldn´t believe it. ("Well, you are living here, aren´t you?") They even agreed to give me their statement literally, though that one then came in much more forthcoming / civilized sounding. They refer to a agreement form over 100 or so years ago, which would allow the local government to proceed things according to internal opinion. (And guessing why such an antique / ethically / constitutionally obsolete paper is being held valid, is up to you.) And German media whom I asked to please have a look at this questionable condition didn´t even care to respond. (As I always say, the medial concertation is alarming, free press apparently been a post war intermezzo.) Actually, I didn´t want to make a fuzz of it, and didn´t try further inquiring anyway. Just hoping there could be some pragmatism or even goodwill coming through. (Don´t know, making it public, could eventually be making things worse for me. Besides, please delete any terms that may name a country.[!] Thanks.) Naive, I know, ever been. And the German mission is having a new director since a couple of months, but I don´t see reason to expect him to necessarily be more feeling than his predecessor. Guess, if I wanted to leave an only way would be similar like once with your friend. Hey Stephen, I appreciate a lot your sympathy, in spite of you been so annoyed by me in the past (and if I told you what a recent ZDF-transmission, actually meant to debunk conspiracy theories, stated in view of foregone US political history about the possibility mentally wise of 9/11 potentially to whether have been a Reichstags burning or not, you´d be taking my scalp right away; hehe) I have been contacting several animal supporting orgs, among them a German one that had negotiated the Ukraine to stop shooting strays, and was shipping some to Germany. Also contacted PETA. All not replying. Finally, contacted the maybe most known (and first) local shelter (whom I used to visit and support a little, until I saw that they breed) asking whether they could help me with getting at least two dogs to a German shelter / better even directly to any loving hosts there (as the shelter is all the time bragging about exports to the US). Fruitlessly. Let alone the countless inquiring hosts I rejected here, for not being suitable (except of one dear woman in puppy-times, whose husband did not allow the adoption). There also is a remarkable hindrance to giving them to new hosts. As trusting, amicable and socialized as the dogs used to be, nearly four years of constant terror resulted in great mistrust if not to say panic against strangers and even hospitality against other dogs. (Displacement activity.) In fact to the tremendous inconveniences since the poison attacks, and further unknown threats to their health (lots of food seem contaminated here, and analytical medical means being both rudimentary and exorbitantly expensive) there has added the difficulty that the same genders (they are 2 males and 2 females) can´t be joined because of risk of fights (with the males) and definite probability of fight (between the females). So, that I have to keep the extra efforts of keeping them apart, and daily several times pairing them differently for either yard / enclosure stays or feeding times. From there only truly advanced hosts would be come into question. I am convinced that the dogs (as their good nature still being in place) would change dramatically the minute of sensing the different culture abroad, but it would still be taking new hosts who would know how to patiently make the dogs finding trust into other dogs. All doable, but requiring special skills. Without prepared hosts I would be worried things to be going wrong. Jeez, I may sound like a pussy, but these are valuable concerns. Lenny, I am not in Latin America, but I was about to settle in Costa Rica, before life had me end up where I am. Simon, The more as I had feelings of being dismissed by you, I am truly obliged to see that you are actually still with me. :O) Besides, the puppy diary was maintained to quite an extend, but it is such an utterly unbelievable Abysses of fierce ogre that I wouldn´t know how it could be processed to ever make it digestible to common mentality. - Where would I be now without the goodwill of the people. My friends abroad (who sometimes even cry), you guy´s good feelings and all. And not at last the endeavors of several people here. Really great deal. Just today there came a bunch of folks from the capitol (through that hell of a traffic), wanting to hear the story, so that they can check whether there be anything they can do. And before all the vet, who has been trying to help me with the animals, and who over that became a friend. You wouldn´t believe what he has been doing. Run here, run there, try finding a decent lawyer, come to court diverse times, and what have you. And while because of his decency being not really all too stuffed with funds (he´s been the one who took me to welfare projects for strays, where he invests time and expense regularly), none the less, leaving aside his work / income so many times only to come for me from far, trying to help, again and again. Especially with this legal case. (And that while I am such a nasty client [whom he cuts bills short for all the time to keep my exhaust low], only to see me with my layman knowledge critically intervening into veterinarian concepts all the time. Appearing almost ungrateful on first sight / sometimes.) The good thing about this nightmare, is seeing the good of the people coming through, which over long periods and in global perspective you almost thought gone lost. Thanks, muchachos; sincerely!
