See: Category:Videos

You may need to click the arrow twice in the middle of any video window to start that video. Or go to the source page for the video. The video is usually larger there.

Start the video, and click the "HQ" button right away at the bottom of the video for higher quality video, and especially sound. The words are clearer, too. Drag the cursor back some, or reload the source page if problems with the HQ button.

Bigger headphones help too. The extra bass volume and dynamic range.

You can listen to more than one video at the same time. :) ~~

Morpheus: "It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth." Neo: "What truth?" Morpheus: "That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Born into a prison that you can not smell or taste or touch. A prison - for your mind. Unfortunately, no one can be told what the matrix is. You have to see it for yourself. This is your last chance. After this there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends. You wake up in your bed and you believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember! All I am offering is the truth. Nothing more." -- From the 1999 movie, The Matrix.

Some people don't know that the National Rifle Association had a large part in causing the huge increase in the U.S. incarceration rate in the United States. The NRA strongly lobbied state-by-state for mandatory minimum sentences (also known as "Truth in Sentencing"). Mandatory-minimum sentences are the root cause of the astronomical US incarceration rate according to a New York Times article. More info here. The majority of people incarcerated in the U.S. are in prison or jail due to drug-related offenses, or drug-related parole or probation violations.
