It's actually quite a bit more sinister than that.
There was ample evidence suggesting and supporting that it was part of Project
MK-Ultra and the whole thing was done intentionally from the beginning.
When it all started to go sideways (from their warped perspective), they decided
to scrub it, and most of the people didn't drink the punch (it wasn't brand-name
Kool-Ade) they were either forcibly administered cyanide by mouth or injection,
or shot.

There's a lot of disturbing documentation of this, and there was even an LP made
of Jim Jones' last half hour - what he said over the loudspeaker apparently had
been taped.

You really just can't make this stuff up, and unfortunately, history teaches us
that it's all too real, believable, and prone to happen again, and again. And
again.

Because - you know - we all need people to "be in charge" and tell us what to
do.   Especially if they steal from everyone else and give us "free stuff",
"protection", "services", "safety", "care", etc. - whether we want it or not.


Very nice work on the lettering as always  :)
