What exactly are we celebrating? The America I knew, the America I loved and held close to my heart is a bygone past. I am 75 years old and have the benefit of hindsight and retrospection. 1. I remember when unions were strong and working people had it good.2. A one working adult in a household paid for all expenses plus vacation plus money left over.
3. Neighbors knew each other and helped each other out. I grew up in Detroit and on our block a fellow neighbor had twins. One born in good health and the other one with a disability. The entire block helped the family out. The job of my three friends and myself was to mow their lawn and shovel the snow. My mom and other ladies cooked meals for them.

Now America was not perfect. If you were a black man or woman then this country was not good to you. We have skeletons in our closet.

As a retired patrolman (yes kiddos, we used to call ourselves patrolman). I must ask, what happened to America? I feel sad for my children and grandchildren.

I'm not a cop. European banks open, I'm on the clock (although it's a light day) Up at four like normal. Worked all days but 4 last year, worked the holidays so others get the day too. You (maybe) get a pension, earn it. I save the extra pay for my retirement.

The Golden Rule:

Be to others as you welcome others being to you.

Do not do to others what you want not ever done to you.


There were, are, and will always be, those who scoff at the Golden Rule.

With 75 years of experiences, you know this well.

As well as many, many, many other things.

Define the shoe and some will fit the definition of same.

All is as old as time itself.

Perhaps your comment query is caused by the current abundances of knowing just how world wide activities are as varied and plentiful as they have always been, yet were not previously so in your face to be aware of.

Just as television brought a more viceral awareness of so many actualities, the world wide web does this exponentially moreso.

Anything and everything occuring anywhere and everywhere, at anytime and everytime, is now at your fingertips.

And yet, you step out into your garden and the flowers still bloom, the birds still sing and those pesky mosquitos still buzz and bite.

We all live our lives within our own skins, our bodies wherever we may be, and endure until last breath the myriad of life's possibilities.

The essence is to live to your values and value most highly the Golden Rule.

Where in Gods Name is the outrage over the 5 people shot in Grand Crossing this morning at 6:20am including 3 babies? Enough with the stupid balloons and marches with t-shirts and CALL THIS OUT! Unless the Black Community calls out the lack of a Father in the home this is a perpetual cycle to be cleaned up and rationalized by the police.

Not to be negative but objectively I'd say were fucked ! So now were left with the 51'st state, that being all this human refuse of illegal immigration that the Left has dumped on us. Criminals, mental patients, cartel gangsters, human garbage with no skills, and worst of all, terrorists.

I worked the Cuban boatlift as an MP back in the day and Castro dumped all his shit on us. He emptied all his jails of thieves, perverts, rapists, scumbags. And that was little over 100,000 while now were stuck with 10 to 20 million because of these fucking Democrats. This is a disaster of epic proportions as Rome is about to burn down thanks to Biden and the leftist assholes.

And Fatass and pinhead put us at the head of the line as "Sanctuaries". Fatass is one of those billionaires who are bored with life so he's taken up playing Game of Thrones with our lives as the serfs and "small people" are squirming under their struggle for "Legacy" and to be next for a Nobel prize taken out of our ass's.

I just read todays Slime Times and lost my breakfast. What an altogether wretched tome, enabled by an altogether wretched Political movement. A real slimy bunch of creatures birthed out the ass. So yes I'd say were fucked but at least we get to watch Biden Inc. come crashing down like the slime balls that they are.

Remember those three members of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's Trinity United Church, including the openly gay choir director/teacher Donald Young, who were murdered within a 60 day period in 2007? Obama was a member of that church from 1992-2008.

We all know Chicago has zero leader ship. We are the dumping ground for the illegal criminals coming from all the countries plus the Mentals and every form of scum that no one wants but yet we are giving them billions of dollars Democrats as usual everything wrong with a civilized just society. The so-called elected idiots up here are all guilty of treason. They should all be in prison or put to death for the things they do to the people and the country.

We haven't fallen and history is not repeating itself.

None, not one of any nation has ever had our Constitutional Republic to begin with, nor our Constitution, nor our Bill of Rights, therein.

Not one.

Not even actual democracies. And, no, parliaments are not actual democracies.

Escaping communism by migrating to America, you say? Why America? Why not any of the many pseudo democracies of europe? Why not the pseudo democracy of canada? Why not tge pseudo democracy of mexico? Of any of the many south american nations? Why, pray tell, America?

No, history is not at all repeating itself here.

And that not imagining thing you imagine ignores that some of those migrating here after WW2 were communists themselves.

What is occuring here now is this:

Because we, America, have our Constituion, our Bill of Rights, our Constitutional Republic form of national government, BECAUSE this is America, the United Sovereign States thereof, everyone envies being here, covets being here, with some hating that we even exist.

Some have total dominion ambitions, whether by their heritage religion, or their own homeland nation's intentions, or the now clearly obviously real one world order freaks.

Some just because their innate criminal natures exploit our Constituional Bill of Rights protections that keep them from being summarily executed by those they prey upon.

Nothing here has ever been as innately scurrilous as every other nations' forms of governments have been and are.

Try not being a simpleton.

Years ago (actually a lot of years ago) when I was in Austin a guy was shooting a shotgun off in an alley. He had a misfire. He pointed the barrel towards his head in an apparent attempt to see what happened and guess what happened? Clear cut winner of the Darwin Award for that night.
