What's Really Ailing Us This Week

Oh for pity's sake. Report all suspicious packages to the police,tell your children to do the same, and recognize that we live in a dangerous world.We used to call this type of foolishness vigilante behavior, now we call it terrorism. Terrorism comes in every form known to man.It's not just men with bushy long beards,or women with their heads covered,or exclusive to a certain ethnicity.We got creeps wanting to kill anybody for any reason.We tend to blame whatever is convenient at the time.The Mother of Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, went on television to declare that no way could her children do such a heinous act because she was their Mother and knew her children.Then we find out that she and her children are a part of huge terrorism database!

We have been a sleeping giant for many years...meaning our people at home haven't endured anything near the magnitude of say civilians in Syria,Israelis on a daily basis,Somalians,etc.etc.etc.
We have our own psychopaths and sociopaths to deal with right at home.We just saw a slew of them get arrested for running Allied Veteran Gaming Centers.Personally, I'm suspicious of the motives on both sides of that issue.
Our leadership, in our ever so religious South, is failing us.Our local media hasn't evolved quickly enough to continue its present business model.If you watch BBC, you are way ahead of the curve of local media.However, even that source has become tainted because they are now taking corporate monies for advertising.PBS is no longer dependent on public contributions. That spells disaster in a free society, which we apparently are not.
Gun sales are way up because there's a whole lot of folks out there that believe the only way to insure protection is to be self- protected.I happen to agree."Money Makes the World Go Round", a song from "Cabaret", hit Broadway in 1966.Liza Minnelli made the movie version in 1972.The reason I bring this up,is the climate in Germany during WWII,has many similarities to our American society of today. Germany had a failing economy, and the dregs of the earth were causing it. The answer was to quickly remove those dregs, or cause them to leave.Prosperity, although fleeting,followed for years.So they thought, the homeland had been cleansed.
Our Homeland is filthy with police that don't enforce laws,firemen that aren't paid a living wage,and people spreading the AIDS virus.That's the plague of this century.The media would have you believe it's obesity,but the real death comes from the AIDS epidemic.Obesity doesn't spread from person to person. AIDS does spread that way.Skinny people have just as many heart attacks as fat ones.It's genetics that play the role,not a rib-eye once a week.
To sum up...be careful out there, and learn what to protect yourself from.
