Mercy to a criminal may be gross injustice to the community. Because they hold memories, sensations, beliefs, and emotions associated with trauma, exiles are the toxic waste dump of the system, and it is hazardous to release them. Exiles contain experiences of inescapable shock—and with it, terror, collapse, and accommodation. Exiles may reveal themselves in the form of crushing physical sensations or extreme numbing, and they offend the reasonableness of the managers of the thought process and the bravado of the firefighters, in the mind, who defend you against unreasonable attacks so you do not spend your days alone hating life and whimpering alone in your bed. When exiles overwhelm managers, they take us over—we are nothing but that rejected weak, unloved, and abandoned child. The Self becomes blended with the exiles, and every possible alternative for our life is eclipsed. We see ourselves, and the World, though the eyes of our harshest critics and believe it is the World. In this state it will not occur to us that we have been hijacked. #RyanPhillippe 1 of 7

From many, when their life is hijacked by exiles, it is like being on the Albatross, during a White Squall. No matter how deep one penetrates into their psyche, no matter what levels of depth to which one descends, one finds a fundamental lack of clarity and sharpness between the various aspects of life and the problems and the issues with which one is struggling with. It is like you are being tosses around and shaken up and cannot see in front of your face, have no idea what is coming at you, but you know death is eminent. Keeping the exiles locked up, however, stamps out not only memories and emotions, but also the pats that hold them—the parts that were hurt most by the trauma. Usually those are your most sensitive, creative, intimacy-loving, lively, playful, and innocent parts. By exiling them when they get hurt, they suffer a double whammy—the insult of your rejection is added to their original injury. As you will soon discover, keeping the exiles hidden and despised will condemn you to a life without intimacy or genuine joy. #RyanPhillippe 2 of 7

As we have seen, those aspect of the mind that were programmed by evolution for purposes of survival are especially ripe for exploitation by various forms and mechanisms of unreality that we have identified for. Much of our thinking is accompanied by micromovements throughout the body. Micromovements are tiny, nearly imperceptible motions of the muscle. Peace may be broken without actual force, and that to destroy morality is to destroy public order which is the peace of government. Morality is the fundamental part of religion, so that an offense against morality is an offence against the common law. As we have seen, thinking sometimes takes place without language. Everyone has searched for a word to express an idea that exists as a vague image or feeling. Nevertheless, most thinking leans heavily on language, because it allows the World to be encoded (translated) into symbols that are easy to manipulate. Such meanings can influence how we think about important issues. Many early sociologists viewed deviant behavior, as a form of social pathology, a problem that potentially threatens the survival of society. #RyanPhillippe 3 of 7

Crime, mental illness, drug abuse, suicide, and other forms of deviance were viewed as social pathologies in need of study and remedy. Deviance is a result of the tensions or strain experienced by people because of their position in the social structure. The primary cause of deviance is social situations in which people, because of their place in the social structure, are unable functionally to purse socially accepted goals through culturally approved means. Most Americans are socialized from birth to strive for material possessions (e.g., nice houses, new cars, fashionable clothes, expensive jewelry) and high social status (usually based on the prestige of one’s occupation). While virtually all Americans are encouraged to internalize these measure of success, some find it impossible to attain them by culturally approved means (staying in school, hard work, thriftiness, and deferred gratification). When some people are not able to obtain the material possessions they want, they often feel loosely integrated into society and feel like they are not meaningfully integrated and might do some strange things for some change. #RyanPhillippe 4 of 7

Some people will find an adaptive strategy to innovate the advances they would like to see. Basically, they find a new way to do an old thing. Innovators internalize goals of society, but they either reject the culturally approved means of achieving them or, because they find the approved means unavailable, develop alternative means for pursuing the goals. For instance, most Americans have internalized goals of accumulating lots of money. The culturally prescribed way of realizing that goal is to stay in school, work hard, save, and defer gratification. Other ways to amass a fortune include robbing banks, dealing drugs, embezzling, participating in insider trading, and committing a host of other crimes. According to court records, 22 year-old Moussa Sissoko met Tiffany Paris in in 1999, while she was still in high school. When he found out she was pregnant with his child in 2000, he was at college in Florida and asked her to terminate the pregnancy, but she did not. #RyanPhillippe 5 of 7

Moussa Sissoko eventually moved in with Tiffany Paris, who was pregnant with his child, and had some cruel intentions. After Shane Sissoko was born, his father Moussa Sissoko got a job at a lock and security company and purchased a $750,000.00 life insurance policy for his new born son, Shane Sissoko. The father, Moussa Sissok, listed himself as the sole beneficiary on the policy. On 15 September 2001, Moussa Sissoko was watching his 3-month old son Shane, while Tiffany Paris was at work. Two hours after he put the baby to bed, Moussa called emergency medical services because Shane was unresponsive and bleeding from his nose. Shane was taken to a hospital immediately, but never regained consciousness and was on a ventilator for 10 days before it was removed and he died. Abusive head trauma, by either shaking and/or causing soft impact trauma to the child was determined to be the cause of death. Moussa Sissoko was convicted for his son’s death in 2002. #RyanPhillippe 6 of 7

Judge Michael Mason, who ruled alone on the trial asked it court, “Why would you put a $750,000.00 policy on a newborn infant?” Any reasonable person would wonder the same thing. “It seems to make no sense, just on its face,” the judge said. Moussa Sissoko claimed it was a form of a college saving plan for the infant. Some people may become involved in property offenses and even violent crimes because they find few legitimate opportunities to achieve some of the middle-class goals (especially material possessions) to which they aspire, or they are too lazy to work or think they are above the law and will never get caught. These blocked opportunities may lead to the formation of deviant subcultures that provide increased social statues through illegitimate means and support deviance such as dropping out of school, joining gangs, stealing, dealing drugs, or otherwise pursuing status and material possession through illegitimate means because they feel cut off from larger society and consequently find it function to band together for social purposes, mutual support and protection. Nothing, to the noble heart, is so afflicting as the consciousness of having done injustice. Moussa Sissoko killed his 3-month-old son Shane Sissoko in 2001 to collect the life insurance policy. #RyanPhillippe 7 of 7
