quill-pen-300x300I have a bridge to sell. If you don’t buy it, you’re racist.

If you watch Fox News you’re racist.

If you hire a white person over a black person, you’re racist. But… If you hire a black person over a white person, you’re not.

Black lives matter. Yes, they do.

But…

Shouldn’t it be: All lives matter?

If the implication of Black Lives Matter is that white lives, or brown lives, or olive lives don’t, isn’t that racist?

So these days there’s no point in even talking about what’s going on. These days in mob heat and mob mentality you can get fired, beat up, even killed and they (whoever they are and it’s not the Republican right) justify it as part of the movement. Either you’re woke or you’re the enemy to be suppressed, squelched and obliterated. That’s their justice. That’s their mob-rule-think.

So think what you think. Say what you say. Do what you do. This is America, at least for the moment. (It won’t be for much longer if we keep on as we are going in the mob heat.)

Two things are very clear.

First, group think/mob think brings us to the worst of what mankind can do. (Oh God, please don’t let me get fired for saying mankind.) (Oh God, please don’t let me get fired/beat up/killed for believing in God and for invoking You here.)

Second, our government is failing us. Our government was meant to be run by representatives who left their personal lives for a term in office and then went back to their personal lives having served their country. It wasn’t meant to be run by career politicians hell-bent on staying in power and enriching themselves. So long as we fail to institute term limits and get rid of the rubbish we have – that American Politburo – we are destined to be subjugated and ruled rather than represented.
