Undue influence and the abortion debate...revised*

This act, The Unborn Victims of Violence Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-212) should be directed to those in the industries and individuals who are guilty of perverting the minds of innocent women, causing them to murder their unborn children. There is clear evidence suggesting undue influence with regard to many women opting to abort their fetuses and it is clear this was true in my case. Undue influence is defined as, an equitable doctrine that involves one person taking advantage of a position of power over another person. This inequity in power between the parties can vitiate one party's consent as they are unable to freely exercise their independent will.

*In The Woman in Green it is likely mothers and daughters viewing this film identified with Lydia who is courted by Sir George, but when they find out she is a mata hari trying to hypnotize Holmes and going to jail in the end, they shift their identifications to other characters like Watson, who was hypnotized by the suggestions, or Holmes who took something to stay awake.  These women could be among those addicted to coffee, caffeine in diet pills or even cocaine. They could be looking for killers or clothing as I did, that associates them with the characters with which they identified.  Their children might be attracted to dolls resembling Lydia.  They probably projected the female part of their psyches onto others in the process. If they identified with Lydia they likely repressed their memories of her, because they felt she was bad, which after time, might be projected onto another female who acts out that content by getting into some kind of trouble with the law and going to jail, like the numerous women in the film Caged.  They might even indulge in check writing as Lydia did this in the film and one of the characters in Caged was imprisoned for illegal check writing.  Only if one was lucky enough to have this televised in their areas could they know of such a problem and possibly escape such a fate.  Many women may have refrained from using any kind of gentle relaxing tone of voice or relaxing conversation with their children, husband or boyfriends for fear of hypnotizing them or hurting them in some way, or possibly being subjected to retaliation by men. This inhibition could possibly cause instances of women choosing to be more like men and acting out with other women.  It is quite possible some women may have taken an interest in luring a man to her apartment with the same kinds of activities, Lydia used and this of course, was how many men saw Mata Hari. Was the woman influenced by the dialogue or did she act of her own free will? According to most scientists it is unlikely she was able to act of her own free will, unless that dialogue was stripped from her mind and memory.  Some men may claim their female date was coming on to him and caused the problem, unconscious of the true cause of his own behavior.  Other men viewing this film, could have been enrage over being hypnotized, may have assaulted, raped or even murdered some woman who exhibited these kinds of behaviors.  Marriages may have been damaged.  These men claim their female date was coming on to them and caused the problem.  In this case, the content of the film is in the female counterpart of the male psyche and some innocent woman ends up ruined for life or in the morgue.

Near the end of the film viewers are subjected to another suggestion in which they are wished well in their search for whatever it is they are seeking. Those who find themselves in situations where they are pregnant and unprepared for motherhood may consider abortion an option and seek a doctor just as Angie did in the film, Love with the Proper Stranger, but then opted out. The point here is they were obedient to the suggestion and sought to get rid of the baby. By the time Choices was written lots of talking up in this film might have created dialogue amongst viewers who felt she should have had the abortion. People using mind control can also persuade people to opt out of having a baby. I might add that in this film Holmes’ violin furthered the processing of the dialogue in the film. Love With a Proper Stranger insinuates promiscuity and abortion are “the happening” in the 60’s amongst middle class young adults. Couple these influences with the hypnotic suggestion and you have a cocktail for disaster. In Choices, a young woman falls prey to the thinking in the first part of this film and does have an abortion. It isn't always what is in the dialogue but what the viewers think that creates the problems in the mind. In the film Marisa questions her close friend on why she didn't reveal she had had an abortion. This also alludes to the possibility entanglements may have caused her daughter’s pregnancy.

In the series, The Outer Limits, the show would begin with either a cold open or a preview clip, followed by a "Control Voice" narration that was played over visuals of an oscilloscope. The earlier and longer version of the narration ran as follows, using an Orwellian theme of taking over your television. First lines of each episode: There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. We can roll the image, make it flutter. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear. We repeat: there is nothing wrong with your television set. You are about to participate in a great adventure. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to – The Outer Limits. A similar but shorter monolog caps each episode: We now return control of your television set to you. Until next week at the same time, when the control voice will take you to – The Outer Limits. How they managed the “your” and “we”, has been long understood often in dialectical thinking, that they sometimes refer to another individual speaking to us.

With these influences directing our thinking, narrations like those in the Outer Limits series persuade us to turn our control over to the television and beckon us to tune in again. Films and images can aid the unconscious mind, however, I have found far too many conflicts in dialogue in films and novels provoking negative behavior and unhealthy or violent thinking. While Angie didn’t have an abortion, they consider it and this could easily have been construed by someone entangled with another seeing the film as something that had happened and might brew up a nasty cup of thinking on the subject such as, “oh my god, she had an abortion, wonder who it is”? Before this lands in someone’s lap there is a brew so thick with problems you can’t see the bottom of the cup. These kinds of conflicts can become extremely annoying and anxiety provoking so that internal and external violence will erupt without provocation, in other-words one might become homicidal or suicidal for no just reason. Those who often lack knowledge regarding the manner in which these indulgences affect their brains and minds can be affected by this content through projection and/or dissociation. Projection and dissociation has been documented by psychologists and some writers. The Ordeal of Dr. Cordell, a 1961 Thriller episode dramatizes these findings. Apparently a radio suspense broadcast titled The ABC Murders, was delivered over the airways in 1943, in which a ringing bell opened the program and was mixed up with someone’s viewing of the 1959 film, Ordeal on Locust Street, which contained a hypnotic suggestion and created a kind of sleepwalking in a scientist who subsequently committed a murder upon hearing the ringing of bells. The subject of the treatment offered in Ordeal on Locust Street was a boy who had homosexual tendencies, or rather, he needed help working through projections from his sister who likely viewed The Woman in Green.

Lyrics like, “we don’t need no education”, corrupts opportunities for learning when coupled with a hypnotic suggestion so one seeks other opportunities opposed to education.  Our problems lie with the creation of poor patterns of behavior.

It has also been suggested those influencing this bill were protecting these industries from criminal and civil prosecutions for undue influence. Just how does this also apply to cases of criminal assault, sexual assault, and murder? In the last 30 years we have paid close to $1,000,000,000,000 just to cable companies and likely two-thirds that much to the film and music industries. Think of what we could have done with that money. Our infrastructure is failing everywhere. Fat cats are leaving our country with bags of money and all we do is beat up on poor women who are mixed up and confused and can’t think for themselves about their own lives. We let them kill these babies. 

The Woman in Green dialogue is available here.  Please whisper it out.

The Unborn Victims of Violence Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-212) is a United States law which recognizes a child in utero as a legal victim, if they are injured or killed during the commission of any of over 60 listed federal crimes of violence. The law defines "child in utero" as "a member of the species Homo sapiens, at any stage of development, who is carried in the womb".

The law is codified in two sections of the United States Code: Title 18, Chapter 1 (Crimes), §1841 (18 USC 1841) and Title 10, Chapter 22 (Uniform Code of Military Justice) §919a (Article 119a).

The law applies only to certain offenses over which the United States government has jurisdiction, including certain crimes committed on Federal properties, against certain Federal officials and employees, and by members of the military. In addition, it covers certain crimes that are defined by statute as federal offenses wherever they occur, no matter who commits them, such as certain crimes of terrorism.

Because of principles of federalism embodied in the United States Constitution, Federal criminal law does not apply to crimes prosecuted by the individual states. However, 38 states also recognize the fetus or "unborn child" as a crime victim, at least for purposes of homicide or feticide.[2]

The legislation was both hailed and vilified by various legal observers who interpreted the measure as a step toward granting legal personhood to human fetuses, even though the bill explicitly contained a provision excepting abortion, stating that the bill would not "be construed to permit the prosecution" "of any person for conduct relating to an abortion for which the consent of the pregnant woman, or a person authorized by law to act on her behalf", "of any person for any medical treatment of the pregnant woman or her unborn child" or "of any woman with respect to her unborn child.
