The simple act of driving a car demonstrates our ability to see the FUTURE. Two tons of steel, flying along at 70 miles an hour, just inches above a reinforced slab of concrete… with a huge degree of accuracy, we can state exactly what will happen 30 seconds into the future… 60 seconds into the future…
Much beyond that… too many variables can effect the outcome and our accuracy starts to fade. But we can reduce the number of potential outcomes if we apply the law of probability…
I probably won’t hit a DEER.
I probably won’t drive off the BRIDGE.
A flat tire, a broken fan belt, a dead battery aside… if I’ve maintained the vehicle properly, the ENGINE probably won’t seize before the next exit.
In so far as it is under my control, I probably won’t strike another vehicle.
It’s because of our INFLUENCE on the system… our ACTIONS make the difference. If we do not act, chaos rules.
…
Have we not had enough of all the bickering and fighting? Fighting amongst ourselves. Fighting endless battles abroad. Fighting over issues of LIFE and DEATH. Fighting over the mundane and trivial.
…
…
Fighting fights instigated by others, over things on which all of us thought we had already found COMMON GROUND.
The only common ground we can seem to find now is, BOTH SIDES believe the other is out to get them… and that is extremely telling in and of itself.

No, it’s not the Republicans who want to overthrow our elections.
No, it’s not the Democrats who want to take away our Liberties.
Neither side wants these things to happen.
…
…
Who does then… who stands to BENEFIT from our INACTION?
Who stands to profit when our Legislatures cannot find UNITY on TAXING BILLIONAIRES…
THE DONORS.
The WRITER, DIRECTOR, and PRODUCER of the legislative shit-show that’s playing out in our Congress today. If this wasn’t exactly what they wanted to see, why would they continue to DONATE to their re-election campaigns.
The allowing of unlimited amounts of MONEY in our elections by the Supreme Court has poisoned our Government. It can barely establish a functioning majority to simply keep the lights on.

Yet it can whip up the votes necessary to give a TRILLION DOLLARS to a myriad of corporations and entities in exchange for their continued SUPPORT NEXT ELECTION…
… next election. dammit man. How do you say that to George Floyd’s family… how do you say that to the students of Marjorie Stoneman Douglas… how do you say that to the families of Sandy Hook Elementary…
…
…
How do you say that to the Officers who stood in the BREACH on January 6th… how many ZEROS need to be on that check.
And even on that we can’t seem to find COMMON GROUND, except for the fact that those people were there with a purpose. Those people where there to force their Will upon the MAJORITY.
Because they said so… while President Trump sat SILENT.
They carried HIS banner. They waved HIS flags.
Those who did carry the flag of this Nation on that day, used it as an implement of OPPRESSION… against Law Enforcement Officers. In their OWN HOME.
…
May God Bless every one of those Officers.
They are the reason OUR BANNER still flies today.
…
…
But we will make AMENDS.
We will seek to MAKE WHOLE that which was damaged, even as some scars will never fade. Every person who died because of the events of that day were AMERICAN CITIZENS… no different than YOU or I.
What’s the difference. What paints the picture… what sets the STAGE.
…
…
…
I may not know all the WORDS. I might not even know all the NOTES… but I know the TUNE. I can only do my BEST, to express what it is that I see, knowing that there are others out there who feel the same.
I believe we can achieve the impossible… because we’ve now witnessed it with our OWN EYES. Donald Trump brought to fruition concepts and agendas I never thought I would see in my lifetime, nor that of my children.
But it has happened.
I believe in precedent. I also believe in the Rule of Law.

When you SEE something… SAY something.
…
Forgive me if this seems offensive, but this is what I was taught in my school. This is what I learned from MY elders. Every fiber of my being tells me THIS is that slippery slope… THIS is that path. We must remember the stories taught to us by our grandparents.
…
…
When you defend the rights of others, you defend those rights for YOURSELF. Where will we draw the LINE? What PRICE are we willing to pay? We ALL lose when they start burning books.
If what we’ve pledged ourselves to defend has become corrupt and dirty, it is our DUTY to do what is necessary to restore its HONOR. It cannot be ignored. Complacency. Negligence. ROT. We have been warned… INACTION will be the death of our Democracy.
To be SILENT is to be COMPLICIT.

End The Electoral College NOW!!
