Being the child of poor, multi-racial, teenage, and public aid-dependent parents, I swear to myself I will never raise a child in a financially unstable home. So I made a mental choice to withhold my virtue till marriage; but life apparently had other plans for me.

"It is heart-wrenching to realize that you have become a mind control experiment by your own government. It's something that I am still putting up with and coming to terms with. I don't have any drug history. I also have no criminal background and no DUIs. (Driving Under the Influence) My background is very clean so I am guessing I was just unlucky." (D. T.: Targeted Individual).
"They politics like ours profess, the greater prey upon the less."
