Try
to picture the following.
You are enjoying your day.
And all of a sudden yourneighbor with a Winnebago.
Explodes open to reveal thatit's been a jet the entire time
and it takes off.
(01:24):
This is the world of mask.
And when you consider theramifications of.
What it means where anyonearound you could be wielding a
radioactive substance in there.
Cheaps.
It starts to make you wonderwhether you can trust anything
(01:47):
at all.
This is a situation we findourselves in.
When we consider what it's liketo live in a world where
paramilitary groups are goingup.
Uh, against at terroristorganization called venom.
The vicious, evil network ofmayhem.
(02:10):
They kind of put it really righton the nose there.
Don't they folks.
They.
Advertise that they are going tobe up to.
No.
Good.
And of course we need someone tostop them.
But.
I think we have to wonder toourselves.
Quiz custodian.
(02:30):
who watches the Watchmen.
We have mask the mobile Arborstrike commandos.
Or command, depending upon howyou like to read it either way
it's spelled wrong.
These.
Folks, we don't know theiridentities.
(02:51):
So that's the whole point.
These folks go out to fightvenom.
To protect us.
But.
What do we know about them?
Who controls them?
Who are they answerable to?
Are they part of our government?
If so, then what are the lineitems in the budget?
(03:13):
If they're not who's fundingthem.
And.
How are we as the commonpopulous, supposed to consider?
What we do.
When mask no longer has an enemyto fight.
What if one of us.
Gets out of line.
(03:34):
What if one of us Southernbecomes a problem.
Do we, at some point in time,end up in a ravine.
It's these questions ofauthority and control.
That frightened us.
I mean at one hand, we'vealready got.
Another terrorist organization,Cobra.
(03:56):
Being fought against a verycolorful arm of our military GI
Joe.
And then of course we havealien.
Cyber giant vehicles thatthemselves.
Hide amongst us.
At what point do we stopbecoming paranoid?
(04:16):
And instead just becomingjustifiably concerned, where are
the checks and balances?
Where do we, as the commonpeople.
Find ourselves.
When there's no one left to turnto.
No one.
Who is answerable to the people.
(04:37):
Now, just so you know, I am notDan Carlin.
I might sound like him.
But.
I think it's worthwhile toconsider.
In our own lives.
Amidst the fun and colorfuladventures.
What we, as a people put oursafety and security.
(04:58):
In a loose band of unknownagents.
Who have no affiliation as faras we can tell to the
government.
Or if it is it's hidden.
Then how have we not fallen intovigilante justice?
It makes you wonder.
Maybe I should be putting a maskon.
(05:21):
And seeing if my Camaro.
Or more to the point.
My Winnebago.
Could fly in the sky as well.
Well, thank you so much forthat.
