"Their Noise Stops With Our Sound"

By Tony Orlando

A few profit -- and the many pay. But there is a way to stop it. You can't end it by disarmament conferences. You can't eliminate it by peace parleys at Geneva. Well-meaning but impractical groups can't wipe it out by resolutions. It can be smashed effectively only by taking the profit out of war.

I don't believe in scaring people. Our government has done that so they may take away your freedoms, so that you and I will work to make more guns. Instead I urge you to notice that you are being manipulated. I think we all can agree, we are being manipulated!

Do you hear this, the loud sound of your hard earned money flying in the sky, floating on the water, and being fired out that gun barrel. Is this really what you think your country needs!

We can stop all that noise, come together, and stop all that noise. I want you to listen to something instead. It rings a loud tone as well. The speech was written in 1964. It is called "The Ballot or the Bullet". This can be your sound, and is going to be heard!

Authors Bio:

I have lived in the suburbs of my large city, always finding a place nearby to escape to be with the wildlife, or travel with my wonderful step father to enjoy all that is offered in the small town he grew up in. I got to have a nice education due to the hard work of my parents, and when I turned 18, was eager to see more around me. Brought up to open doors for ladies, keep my heart exposed, and one day be the parents that I was taught to be.

My life has been hard, because I want an honest living, and do not want hurt others as I climb above. But what I have gained is so much more, I am a really good guy and have seen the others, but I feel there should be more so I am here with you guys on this website doing my part. I think the small things are better, can I say this with the right words, it is not complicated and want to give it a try. If you were to hang out with me for a day, you would have fun and joke around, maybe do some fishing in a farm stock pond, or go out in the city and look at all the shinny cars as they pass. Promise to put my heart into this, and not asking for too much, just think what a world this could be, if we could talk for a day.

I am new to being responsible, I have a new puppy his name is Rocco, everyone should have a Beagle because it is like being in a WaltDisney movie. He has these big ears, and a look when he tilts his head.

Growing up I was curious about everything, had too many hobbies to list. My job interests were diverse, and I spent my time learning about carpentry, mechanics, medicine, and electronics. If I could get the job I want, I would have to invent it myself, it would be something like my great grandfather, he was famous for building things for others in the cities nearby, today if you say his name, they would stop what they were doing and smile as they told your their stories. Today we could use him, invent a way we could interact better, like Buckminster Fuller had wanted, and maybe one day. Thank you for inviting me here with you guys, I look forward to see what we can do, because if it is not us who do it, then who.
