It's Official!

My friends who understand, it is a goal of mine, however naive, to craft posts and responses which are thoughtful as well as thought provoking, without insulting. These are my choices and the only way forward... forward for me is to appeal directly to the humanity inherent in all. Fully aware we can't please everyone, the deep divides in our country are not healing but getting worse. Calls for unity fall on deaf ears...

it's official, we have gone from difficult times to turbulent times where violence threatens life and property. 

You cannot wrap yourself in MY flag and do evil. You cannot advocate for violence and call yourself  "Leaders of the Free  World." 

This "Tough Guy" nonsense has to stop. You are not free, nor are you brave if you feel the need to strong arm the people, to silence them, to mock them, to bully them into submission. You are prisoners to your own delusions of moral superiority. 

It is no longer a matter of good or bad in people. It is about those of us willing ready and able to obey the law and those who are not. It is increasingly difficult in exponential ways to police those unwilling or unable to comply with the rule of law. This includes any President.

Violence will neither subdue the oppressed, nor will it soften the oppressor. Where we need wisdom...we get threats...where we need calm reassurance...we get derision. This is not leadership, but a bunker mentality fanning the flames of anarchy.



You enlightened ones are my beacon of hope. Please rise in a unified voice of reason. 

 Thank you for listening
