Hello from John

Posted by: ,

Hello readers, I apologize for my recent absence and lack of updates. Due to the terrible events at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newton Conn,  I have decided to take a few days absence from public life. I will resume with my blog activities in a few days.

 

Do your best to forget the name of the shooter, and remember the innocent victims of this terrible act.

  1. Rewards have to be a believable amount as well. In a country like Belize, 25K is a lot of money. The people there are not that wealthy so if you made the reward too large, it would be unrealistic to them.

  2. from Mexico John,
    Ken Smith has a website for people who chose to become expatrtiates and leave America. He talks about how people who leave the US can become good will ambassadors for the US. Here’s a nice little story about Belize written by my pal, Joe Bageant (who at one time called me one of his people, but a stubborn one. That’s sort of an inside joke between me and Joe, but I think Joe made an excellent good will ambassador for America. He was full of Noam Chomsky style ideology, not necessarily a bad place to be in my opinion.

    But in the spirit of keeping this blog alive and well and still serving a functional purpose, I propose the following question for you to help us understand you and your reasons for keeping this blog active.

    What would you have done differently if you knew all that you know now and were making the decision to become an expatriot again today. What would you have done differently and would you change anything in regards to how things turned out for you in Belize so far.

    I do think Joe would have approved of your appeal to Americans who travel to Belize to help the local people and not the big name ritzy schmitzy sector of Belize, although Joe had his own problems staying in Belize and ultimately decided to leave. I don’t think he ever wrote about exactly why he left Belize but he hinted at it in one of his later essays before he ultimately returned to the US to come home to die with his family around him. But here is one of his essays on Belize.

    http://kvsmith.com/?p=850

    You can find more of his essays online.

    No one would force you to look back on your past experiences and explain what you would have done differently, but perhaps others who feel the need to “get away” from America might indeed find your thoughts on this subject enlightening. And by looking at what happened to you in Belize, perhaps it would offer us more insight into “Who is McAfee”.

    I’m not a believer in the theory that you killed the neighbor because I’m sure you would have no need to have the stolen computer and handheld device that I think I believe I read were taken in regards to Mr. Faull.

    Incidentally, I think you should up the reward for the person who can help prosecute the murderer. But it’s your money and you certainly do with it as you wish. For all I know, you could well be dead broke. But if you are as wealthy as reported in some places, $25,000 seems like a paltry figure to offer for someone who could clear your name and help the Belizean people to get a murderer off the street. On the other hand, rewards can often bring out the cranks and con-men, so perhaps a reward isn’t a good idea. What do you think? )

  3. Thank you so much. I do think that I was strong to endure it. I agree with you that keeping two brothers apart not only is wrong, but just seems do adverse to modern day American philosophy. Ezra (the seven year old) has been to visit his brother a few times, but they do not allow me. It is so surreal.

  4. Yes, Graceland is in Memphis, in west Tennessee. I live in east Tennessee in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains; about a 9 hour drive from Memphis.

    East Tennessee is so beautiful and the people are so friendly and kind.

    I’m so sorry the legal aid in Vermont isn’t very good.

    To deprive you of seeing your own son, and to deprive the two brothers from being together is cruel. You must be strong to have endured this tragedy.

  5. I think that Tennessee is lovely though. I have been through there on the Greyhound. Isn’t that where Graceland is?

  6. The legal aid in central Vermont is terrible. If you are poor enough to need them they consider you to be mentally ill and I think they intentionally try to drive you insane. There is a state hospital conveniently located two towns away. I went to college in Arizona.

  7. Nothing wrong with him walking around with his ex sister in law, I also used to walked around with my ex sister in law, was a lot of fun………., when he finish with her, I don’t mind taking her for a walk, look like it could be fun, so don’t get all pissy about it

  8. Jessica, there’s a wonderful organization here in Tennessee called the Legal Aid Society. The attorneys with Legal Aid are some of the best, and have taken on high profile $350 an hour attorneys and won. They represent mothers like you for free if you are low income.

    Check this out in Vermont and you may have such an organization there.

    The Legal Aid Society is wonderful.

  9. John is devoting himself to the patch
    for the Mayan Apocalypse. He must be
    having flashbacks to the Michelangelo
    Virus.
    It is time to find that cape and save the
    World again Sir John.

  10. …and btw, the newspaper in question (Daily Mail UK) has got to be, IMHO. the most biased, incompetent, judgemental, whining rag of a newspaper I have ever had the misfortune to encounter.

    Politically and socially speaking, it represents the antithesis of (at least the outward appearance of) John’s perspective on life.

    It is the epitome of crap when it comes to MSM.

    John, Sam, Chad, hope you are all happy, safe and healthy.
    Best wishes as always.

  11. OMG its awesome!!!! Thank you so much man!!!Can’t wait to get it.it will be hung right above the.mantle lol. You are too freakin cool man!! Thank you so much once again.god speed brotha.

  12. By the way, where’s John today?

  13. Well John’s sister-in-law from 2nd marriage is definitely showing some nips… whatever. There’s a ton of old guys who date younger and call their girlfriends “nieces”. lol

  14. You really are a piece of work.

  15. How many times has he been married? They say that 3 is a charm. Has something to do with baseball I think.

  16. Glad you are in America, Mr. McAfee. Grievous situations. Please watch for signs of nuclear pollution, electronic attacks, and chemical attack where you are. I’m in Owen Sound, Ontario, Canada and all of our requests for military and medical assistance have been denied for two years! I reported extreme stockhom syndrome here two years ago and we still have no security near nuclear plant and harbor, and limited access to health care. RCMP refuse to investigate violent crime in our area. Many people in Canada want Steven Harper arrested; we are trying to contact the Queen of England about her possible exposure to nuclear pollution in 2009- and William and Katherine’s exposure to nuclear pollution in 2010. Enjoy your holidays as much as possible. I am very grateful that you made it safely to Miami. Take good care.

  17. Mr David: HERE you go: https://twitter.com/chad_essley/status/281094987733680129/photo/1
    This painting is on it’s way to you sir. Have a very Happy New Year, and get well soon.
    -Chad

  18. The woman is evidently John’s sister in law from his 2nd marriage.

  20. Now, when McDonald went down with its popularity, John should open a new chain called “McAfee” and feed all his fans with nice sandwiches worldwide:)…

    ps people need religion to stop killing … not church, but religion.

  21. hey boss its me the taxi guy from sp how are you doing thank god your out of here

    John, I found the site and code, thank for the lead. You know where to find us, should you need us.

  25. So perplexed.

  26. I know. I have tried every attorney in the area. No one wants to even blink at our case. I am do perplexed. I am definately right. One attorney told me that I could not afford him, because my income is Social Security income.

  27. Her name is Dr. Tomasi.

  28. Jeff Wise had promised parts 2 and 3 and has never delivered. I doubt he has them since he obtained part 1 rather nefariously.
    .
    We are also still waiting on those Vice guys and their documentary. What happened to that?

  29. Really? You want to use this space to debate gun control? And you are right, the people who currently have the guns won’t give them up, but if you put a ban on selling large magazines, then that would at least make those weapons less deadly.
    Australia doesn’t have mass shootings like we do, and they are pretty rugged people there 🙂

  30. Where is Mr. McAfee,I thought he turned himself in.Hope he is doing well.

  31. Hey John, who is taking care of your place down there? I just got back and am heading back down again, let me know if you need someone to look after the place, me and my wife could use a place to stay and could watch over the place. Glad your back safe. Peace

  32. to SK, I agree with your advice for Jessica, especially “removing obstacles” Distance can easily be removed by any parent, but an eight year old child has no say so about what state he lives in. Sad situation for you as well as your son. Seems you have hope in Montpelier officials or someone in the state capitol..after eight years?? The longer you let this go, the slimmer your chances of ever knowing your son.

  33. Jessica, that was an offensive and odious doctor who took your child away from you in Barre, Vermont. That doctor used horrible judgement. Could you sue her?

  34. Love your work Chad. Bless your heart to help John out. Merry Xmas to your family.

    Can we hear how is Sam doing, Please? I would freak without my man. 🙁

  35. I have not read the post since today. I love you John. You are hot for your age. 🙂 I have googled a lot today. This is what I found, I need the part 2.

    http://gizmodo.com/5960138/the-crazy-secret-journal-of-john-mcafee-volume-1#13558029213613You love your ladies. 😛 My man is 60 and I am 46. I love him to death. Been together also 5 years. Blessings to you and Sam.

    God be with you.

  36. John, 

    I just exited Great America Parkway, and passed the building that once was headquarters for MFE. Although the building currently hangs a leasing sign, across the street, stands the new headquarters for McAfee, tall and proud displaying your software legacy.

    Much like these buildings, stand tall and proud for the work that you contributed to society. The world is a better place with you, and other pioneers that impact all of our lives on a daily basis. You still have work to do or contributions to make. Hang in there, tune out the noise, and stay focused on the end goal.

    Regards,

    JJ

    Please keep in touch. Good luck

  38. Sema, I would like to tell you that gun control does nothing, it is impossible to take away the guns from the people who currently possess them, without them rebelling them. I agree that we need to control these shootings, but we should be passing the concealed weapon law, so for the times that people are trapped in this situation, they can actually defend both themselves, and the others around them.

    As an supporter of John, I too have been moved to share support for the very tragic and dark event that took place in Newtown. As a result, we have created a couple of decals of which ALL proceeds will be donated to the City. If you are interested please visit http://gostickit.biz/sandy-hook-elementary-praying-hands/
    Thank you.!

  40. David sir, I may be able to help. Will contact you via e-mail.

    Huge regards, -Chad

  41. Hey chad, I love the pics of your work. If you feel compelled maybe you can draw a zombie santa in spirit of the holidays. that would be awesome. Of course I expect you to put you own spin on it but santa being a zombie would be framed and on the fireplace mantle on Christmas morning. That would be awesome. Kind sir do you accept my challenge? what would even be better is if you printed one out and signed it and mailed it to me. But an email will be fine I guess. So what you think? Doable?

  42. Where is John today? Looking for updates…

  43. It seems to me like before I was a mother that families used to turn to the news as a way of celebrating life and achievements. Now it is all death and destruction. Seems even like Cnn.com feels like there has to be a running “plot”.

  44. I can answer that one. Use the Shareaholic Plugin for WordPress. Cheers. -Chad

  45. I was watching Cnn.com forever and then the news just kept getting worse and worse. Recently it seemed to me like they were miss reporting on you too and so I have completely stopped reading it everyday. Any thoughts?

  46. Hows it goin BigMac? Hope Sam n Amy are OK without you, wonder who Amy is taking pot-shots of with you not being around!
    Seriously, hope they are well, especially Sam who stuck by you through it all. Please let us know if we can do anything to help her.

  47. I’m heading to Bolivia for new year you are welcome to join me Los tajibos hotel Santa cruz American airways fly there every day from Miami . Boliva has no extradition laws

  48. Mr Mcafee well done , don’t let the buggers get you down. If you need money or a place to stay in Europe let me know

  49. Dear John, I am living in Austria but also I had read
    daily your blogs since the beginning. I was really happy with you and for you that you are finally back at your home, America, and you feel healthy and strong. John, your words concerning this tragedy are great and true – to forget the murders name but to think on all the children and their families with all our hearts….also we here in Austria are weeping.
    I wish you Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year and the best for your future, John McAfee and I will always think on you because you are simply a good person.
    (Excuse my “strange” english…:-))

    John, My tech savvy friend, would you please drop me a note and let me know how you get all these share the knowledge buttons at once? I want them for my website and blog. abacus books.com & abacusbooks.blogspot.com I would appreciate your advice. Welcome home to the USA, I was holding my breathe until you made it. I knew a smart man like you would have been coming home fast via the same kind of route out of Central America I wrote in my novel C Street. Claudette

  52. These commenters are just so funny. Amazing.

  53. I welcome you to my hometown of Miami. Glad that you were able to get out of Central America. Make yourself at home John. You should fit in here very comfortably..

  54. We understand abd expected that you would drop off the map for a bit after you go back state side. Its understandable as your next steps in life right now will be a full time job. Just whenever you have a moment to spare just drop us a small line every now and then for your supporers. Through all of this we have all given you a little piece of our hearts and this feels like a victory for you and all your supporters. So dont forget your victory is ours also so dont forget to let us in on how things are going. I have counted over 50 comments offering money , a place to stay, property, boas etc. You have brought together a huge group of people with one thing in common which is your well being. Good luck on your climb back to the top and god speed brotha!

  55. I concur! A true gentleman indeed. Your sensitivity is why many women love you and men want to be you, whether they admit it or not. My heart goes out to all the families of the victims in this horrible tragedy. They, as well as you John, are in my prayers….

  56. Also I was told that he might need to have infant genital surgery for a Hernia. I was conscientious and decided to get a second opinion. It turned out that he did not need the surgery. I believe had I not gotten a second opinion that they would have gone ahead with the surgery. I was a really good mother. I loved him so much and I felt like I was in heaven when I was with him. He was born in the summer and I took a lot of walks with him in the sun.

  57. Well he is in CT with my cousin. I am in Vermont. I am raising his brother who is 7 years old. I think that it is best if I stay in Vermont where he was taken from me. Also, both of my boys and I were born in Vermont. Plus I live in Montpelier which is the state capitol. I think that has to have some pull. I am surrounded by lawyers and legislators and law.

  58. Thank you. You hit the nail on the head. He was ten Weeks old when he was taken though. I had been nursing him and I brought him to my local hospital to get circumsized. I was the one who changed all of his dressings. His father lived with us, but he worked full time. He was taken from both his father and I. It was because of an strange and over bearing doctor at Barre Internal Medicine in Barre, Vermont. I tried to have her investigated by the license review board, but my investigation was denied.

  59. Crazy, Crazy. Heartbreaking. Canada sends piles of love.

    Safe Travels.

  60. Respect! Mr McAfee you’re a gentleman.

  61. I think the whole of Australia would certainly be saddened and appauled by the events at Sandy Hook…My heart certainly goes out to all those parents who have lost their kids so needlessly!…I only hope that Obama gets very strong gun control NOW!…not later….NOW!!!

  62. As more becomes know about the recent school tradgty, this blog seems less important?
    Soon there is going to be another divisive issue which people will angrily fight over; “USA must protect the schools by reducing guns” —versus— “Many fewer deaths if the principal would have been armed when she lunged at the gunman”.
    How to best protect public gatherings is a debate for elsewhere, as the purpose of this blog is to control corruption and enable John to gain justice. Here we will see if the internet can empower an individual to positively affect a nation?
    Tragedies like what happened in Connecticut, make increasing internet effectiveness more important, when it can be used to improve the living conditions of everyone everywhere. I hope John returns soon with renewed energy to continue his fight against corruption in Belize.

  63. Jeff Wise’s fixation comes from being a wannabe ‘made man’ and proven low-brow sensationalist hack who blew his load too early like an gimpfisted teenager that just stumbled across his fathers stash of porno mags at the back of the closet. Dude, you should be writing for the Daily Mail. You probably do. Jeff, your shnitz reads like the ramblings of a pompous guff-spouting titbiscuit… an embarrassing footnote in the larger story.

  64. Thank you John. Please correct the birthdate of Lauren Rousseau, 06-8-82

    RIP

  65. Hi John;
    I hear your story from Vani (she is Jane sister)
    May be you still remember them ?
    Congratulation, She very worry about you of everyday…

  66. Unbelievable, NBC are down here investigating this story for a 2 hour special. Yesterday whilst filming by your place, one of your dogs escaped and bit a tourist on the public beach. They actually have it on film.
    They seem real interested in the truth.
    People are finally talking, no one is afraid.

  67. Seeing those DOBs brings tears to my eyes. Really hits home…

  68. Glad to hear from you John! Keep writing to us!

  69. Jessica, I underwent a custody dispute as well. Its important that you remove all obstacles and be in the same jurisdiction as your child if you want to see him. There are ways around having to go through the legal system just to see your son. Without revealing your motives, find out which school he attends and get a job at his cafeteria to see him & talk to him. But never reveal your motive. Do this while fighting to see your child. Live in the same school district. Show him you luv him, so he can never come back to you ask why

  70. Thank you John for your sensitivity to this tragedy.

  71. Jessica, I’m so sorry your son was taken from you. If he’s 8 years old and you haven’t been allowed to see him for 8 years, he must have been taken from you at birth. This must be awful for you to worry so when there’s a tragedy and not be able to comfort your son; having to love him from afar.

    May God bless you and your boy.

  72. Thank you John.
    This is indeed a tragedy. It has left me saddened, especially this time of year. I had suspected that this may have been the reason that there have not been any “McAfee sighting” articles all weekend.
    .
    Following along with you this past month has been a nice diversion. Researching you has been very entertaining. I find you to be fascinating, charming, and a true gentleman.
    .
    I still do not understand the fixation Jeff Wise has on you. I think it started prior to the article in Fast Company, because that article was so biased.that it belonged in a tabloid.
    .
    Enjoy your quiet time, though I suspect you enjoy the frenzy more.

  73. We in malaysia are with you and USA.We are also mourning for deaths of innocent children in GazA.salam

  74. My son lives in CT with my cousin. I have not been allowed to see him in 8 years. That is the injustice that I am fighting. He is 8 years old and goes to public school. When I heard this news I was terrified that he was a victim, but they tell me that it happened on the other side of the state.
