"When the looting starts, the shooting starts."

 

Donald Trump

I just needed to run the photograph above by you. I'm not certain of her name, but she was just one of many innocent protesters who were injured recently on the night that the unhinged sociopath and common pervert, Donald J. Trump, decided that he needed the army to clear-out Lafayette Park so he could make his way over to St. John's Church to pose for a stupid and meaningless photo-op. The poor gal took one of Trump's rubber bullets directly to the face. The injury was so extensive that she needed to be hospitalized. She wasn't breaking any law; she wasn't looting a business establishment; she wasn't threatening or hurting anybody. She was merely in Donald Trump's way. If that bullet had hit her eye (and it was just missed by only a couple of inches) it would have gone into her brain and her family would now be making arrangements for her funeral. God bless America. 

 

These bullets can kill, and I imagine that in the months to come, a lot of Americans are going to die as a result of their contact with either rubber bullets or the metallic variety. Trump is now threatening to send troops into areas where people are protesting. The right wing media as personified by the likes of Fox Noise have been portraying the demonstrations as violent and destructive. In fact the overwhelming majority of them have been peaceful and beautiful. There is going to be one in my home town on Friday at 4 PM which I definitely plan on attending. My guess is that Trump's plan is to provoke as much national unrest and chaos that he can possibly muster in order to cancel the elections in November. Does that sound paranoid to you? We shall see.

We all need to contend with the miserably nasty fact that we have over seven months to deal with this corrupt, disgusting brain-damaged piece-of-shit living in the Executive Mansion. That he will attempt to retain the awesome power of the presidency through unconstitutional means is, by now, a foregone conclusion. Between now and January 20 will be see some of the worst violence that has afflicted this country in many years. The violence won't be perpetrated by ANTIFA (which isn't even a real organization). It will be hurled at us by the president of the United States. We need to do everything we must - nonviolently - that this disgusting bastard is sent packing on Election Day and is sent to prison for the rest of his life for the crimes he has committed against the county he has effectively destroyed.

Let the weirdness begin.

If you happen to be in the area on Friday afternoon, do stop by!
