As a complement to last week’s post, I’ll continue to applaud the NY Times’s analysts for their publication of America’s deadly gun stats. Not only that, but in last Sunday’s article, “4 Laws Might Have Saved Lives in 35 Mass Shootings” (6/5/2022), it’s clear that the Fascist Party of America aka the Good Ole Piranhas… Continue reading Common-sense gun control…

Again?
Yet another mass shooting, once again in a school; and some politicians are whining and moaning that something should be done, but nothing ever is done! One obvious reason: Too many politicians covet the funding from the NRA and gun manufacturers’ lobbies. That’s just more evidence about how greed and power keep America sliding down… Continue reading Again?
The message from the wounded and the dead…
We all watch the scenes showing the atrocities Putin has committed with his evil war and grimace. Of course, this monster doesn’t care what any sane person thinks—he’s a monster and a war criminal. But the Russian people will eventually care. Having lived through the Vietnam era, I know that neither the internet nor even… Continue reading The message from the wounded and the dead…
Drinking the autocrats’ Kool-Aid…
The American and Russian people have something terrible in common: A large number from each group drank the Kool-Aid of their evil autocrats. Too many believed and still believe Trump’s battle cry to “make America great again”; the majority of Russians are too tolerant of Putin’s “make Russia great again.” And both groups of morons… Continue reading Drinking the autocrats’ Kool-Aid…
A special plea to all people of good faith in the world…
Let’s support the Ukrainian freedom fighters! There’s a real possibility that Putin’s stormtroopers will overrun Ukraine. Whether that occurs or not, all people of good faith, especially Americans who pretend to be for freedom, despite Trump and his minions’ efforts, to be defenders of the free world, should make a solemn vow to support Ukraine’s… Continue reading A special plea to all people of good faith in the world…
The American Taliban…
After seeing that the far-right SCOTUS judges bloviate about the Mississippi anti-abortion law, I decided I was wrong about them: they’re more than fascists; they’re the American Taliban. I had similar thoughts when I then listened to Mississippi’s moronic governor on CNN’s “State of the Union.” There’s a man who belongs in Afghanistan because that… Continue reading The American Taliban…
Kyle Rittenhouse…
At the time I’m writing this article, it’s still possible that Kyle Rittenhouse gets away with two murders and an attempted murder, even though there’s no question of his guilt. Even as a seventeen-year-old minor, Rittenhouse would have been welcome in the Nazi youth corps. He’s the lad who lived outside Wisconsin and decided to… Continue reading Kyle Rittenhouse…
Saudi Arabia…
Before the month ends and most people forget about 9/11, I thought it would be worthwhile to remind everyone who the real culprits were in that nefarious attack. It’s very unlikely that the Biden administration won’t release much of anything about Saudi Arabia’s involvement in 9/11. US administrations, Democratic and Republican alike, have long considered… Continue reading Saudi Arabia…
Where were you?
Some of you hadn’t been born yet. Many others who were there died. Still others were maimed or contracted cancer and other illnesses after the towers fell after each one was hit by a plane. Some heroes brought down the plane bound for the Capitol. (Thank God they didn’t have to see a fascist American… Continue reading Where were you?
