Every day in this country we see examples in the news of people who seem to be without values, lacking integrity, and we ask ourselves, “What is wrong with the people of this country???” Today, Larry asks that question in response to two truly jaw-dropping events in the past week. Are we becoming a nation of fools who have no values whatsoever? Thank you, Larry, for expressing what I think the majority of people are thinking … SIGH.
so sad what is happening…

Thank you for sharing!… There are closed minded elements of America’s (and the world) society who resist change… now, in order to protect their image, they will create a ideology that will justify their actions (Bible, Constitution, etc)… this has been ongoing since homo sapiens stood erect, learned how to walk and invented the club…. in history’s past and lack of technology, one would not hear much about what is transpiring here, and the the world… in today’s technology, one can run but cannot hide… 🙂 here in the prairies of America one can learn about practically anything anywhere, if one is so inclined… 🙂
Unfortunately that same wonderful technology has given a voice to those closed minded societies and, at the moment, the world is concentrating on their actions because it makes headlines… no one is interested in someones attempt to save the Monarch Butterfly, deal with climate change, etc… 🙂
“What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or in the holy name of liberty or democracy?” ( Mahatma Gandhi)
Until we meet again…
May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life’s passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!

High Holy….How many times Oh Lord. How many times????
Usual s**t. Been happening since F*** knows when.
Only bright is, those who start it are usually the ones who get their faces rubbed in it…those of them that are still alive that is.
Ok I’ve said my piece, the rest I keep locked up.
Take care you guys it’s an a-hole episode in History.

I know, but the bad seems to be spreading just like the coronavirus, and the bad ones are so loud and obnoxious … and mostly carry guns. Sigh.
