Welcome to my corner of the world. Malagent.com has no purpose other than to exist for it’s own sake. Periodically I will share my views for anyone who cares.
I am a Republican, conservative, and traditionalist, although I am not religious. I don’t agree with everything any party or candidate lies about. Blind and unwavering partisan[1] loyalty is the way of the foolish masses. Most politicians will lie, or at least omit and or manipulate the truth and emphasize what the people want to hear in order to be elected and or remain in office. This is not the fault of the politician, rather it is the fault of the masses who believe and even encourage it. It is the people who allow themselves to be lied to, manipulated, and taken advantage of for the benefit of a select few fat, rich, white men. This is not only allowed but encouraged by the masses who repeatedly reward lying political figures with votes and fame.
As I write this I am 32 years old and have retired from a 14 year career in law enforcement. Most of that career has been operating a private police agency although I have spent my fair share of time patrolling the streets for public law enforcement agencies. While in college I majored in Criminal Justice administration and also studied psychology. I’ve worked for a mortuary service and coroners office, transporting the deceased from homicide and other death scenes.
Although I am fully aware that I do not have all of the answers and I do not know everything, I do seek to enlighten those that are willing. I feel that knowledge opens doors and an open mind knows which door to choose.
Most likely I will irritate, annoy, anger and maybe even infuriate some visitors. This is fine with me as I don’t really care if you are angered by my thoughts and ideas. I believe I am right most of the time (which is my right.) If you do not like what you read or see here then stop and go away! I did not force you to come here, to read the pages or view the images, I am not coercing you to stay here or to return.
If you have an intelligent response or comment for anything I post here, feel free to comment, but be for-warned -
If you are an idiot and it is reflected in your uneducated rambling and pathetic arguments I reserve every right to publicly mock and ridicule you. So please don’t waste my time complaining about it when it happens as this will only encourage more mocking and ridiculing. Please don’t let the previous warning discourage intelligent exchange and debate, so long as it is intelligent. I really do become very angry when stupid people try to act intelligent by arguing about something they really have no business even discussing.
Don’t put much effort in trying to understand my nom de guerre. I decided upon Malagent a great many years ago and it is only loosely related to the name Malagaent or Malagant from Arthurian Legend.
1. Partisan is synonymous with zealot and fanatic.
I just wanted you to know that not all Ron Paul supporters are spammers or crazy. I really think that his views are not only honest and refreshing, but would help this nation. So, if Ron Paul supporters are a little too excited about who they support, please forgive them and check out Ron Paul’s website. I think that his website states his views clearly, as opposed to other candidates websites which are mostly vague. For an interesting note please see Mitt Romney’s page and instead of a title like Iraq war or something - he uses defeating the jihadists. Weird! I have looked through this site and I don’t know exactly how you lean, but would be interested in more of your opinions being posted. As a final sidenote, I just started getting into some books on psychology and I was interested in the books by Bernays - Engineering Consent, and Crystalizing Public Opinion - among others. Have you read these, and if so - what did you think?

I just had to.
Reid,
or Engineering of Consent(on eBay) yet, I have yet to obtain a copy. Have you seen the price of Crystallizing Public Opinion
? Last I looked it was $345! To think this book sat on the shelf in my Abnormal & Institutionalized Psychology class for a year and I never had occasion to read it.
and it is still readily available. Basically Edward Bernays discusses what intelligent people should already know and not really be influenced by to the extent they are. Practically there is no way to prevent propaganda or more generally just manipulation of public opinion. The real problem is that too many people are completely controlled by these unavoidable forces. It’s a fascinating field of study and I’m sure you will be enlightened the more you get into it.
I’m aware that many Ron Paul supporters are perfectly normal people, my little experiment has led to some very beneficial discussions with some of them. I know many see this as being hostile to Ron Paul & his supporters but I needed to get attention so to speak. It also does allow a place for people to express their views regarding Ron Paul both for and against. I could have simply blocked the words “Ron Paul” from the comments and then I would not have to worry about the spam, however, I really do want to allow legitimate discussions. Therein is my issue as so many have abused it.
I have not read Crystallizing Public Opinion
I have read Propaganda
Interesting site. I have added you to my blog listings and will try to visit frequently. I invite you to do the same if you are so inclined. http://www.judgingtruth.com/
