My
first inclination is to throw my arms up and say I give up. The nation
is 1/2 insane and unless we elect Democrats yes Democrats as they are
the only party that can offer a smidgen of hope to undo all these
horrific Trump era policies overturning all that has shaped this nation
into something civilized. Why in god's name is he -- this know nothing
nincompoop crackpot -- voted into the most powerful position on earth where
he will put those others in positions of great power to undo all the
progressive change that protects all of us even them?
Trump does not
care nor do those who he entrusts with power. They care about
themselves, their money and that they take it all -- ALL of it.
That's it. Does the NRA now give one iota of empathy and tears for the
thousands who have lost their lives -- many children -- to gun violence? No one but no one
needs an assault rifle nor be allowed to purchase so many bullet clips
for it they could take out a military platoon.
No, they are
taking
out children, teenagers and innocent Americans who left home with a
backpack, books, and pencils to go to school but end up dead. Thoughts
and prayers will do nothing as evidenced by the continuation of the
shooting. Those in
bed with the NRA are a cancer on this nation. This will keep happening
again and again of that one can be sure. How much longer will the
people allow this to go on with no remedy? As the song says to the
twelfth of never.
Our scourge of gun violence will never be addressed
until those with humanitarian purposes grab power! Get these Republican
beasts out of office. The answer may seem pedestrian but VOTE and
RESIST!!
