The Killing Culture is Killing Us

 

Crime is on a rampage in cities all over America. Every day we are confronted in the newspapers with more and more  cruel killings. It’s a disaster. Solutions are not working. They are not working because these killings are because of the accepted killing culture that we have established in which killing is fun.

When my grandson was only seven, he was killing over 20 villains per day in video games. I remember as a kid, we played marbles, checkers and scrabble. Now, instead kids are addicted to

When, in 2019, a non-governmental and non-profit organization - Citizens Quest for Truth Initiative, came on stream, not a few persons consigned her future to the dustbin. One of the reasons stemmed from the fact that people knew next to nothing about the vision and mission of the NGO. Another being that, to most of such initiatives, political colouration won't allow them to stand the test of time.

 

This later group of persons therefore spared nothing in their avowed commitment in seeing that eve

The Worst Enemy of America

The worst enemy of America is not China. It is not Russia. The worst enemy of America is the Republican Party.

Proud of Biden

I was very lukewarm In my support of Biden when I voted for him. However, he has continued to exceed my expectations. As I mentioned before, his infrastructure legislation proposal was  in the class of Medicare and Social Security. Now he has continued to impress by his offer of donating 500 million of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines to the poorer countries of the world, with no strings attached. After four years of a president, Donald Trump, to be ashamed of, it is great to now have a president to

Racism Is A Republican Red Herring

The primary strategy for Republicans is racism. Right now the most popular Republican is Donald Trump. Before Trump, Republican racism was subtle. But, when Trump embraced blatant racism, his popularity  sky-rocketed.  The reality is this Republican racism is nothing but a red herring to hide the fact that Republicans offer nothing for the American voters.

Does this Republican racism put food on the table? Does it offer a healthcare plan for the millions that are uninsured? Does it seek to establ

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT?

     Now, let’s be honest.  Many of today’s parents don’t value an education the way many of us ‘P-Schoolers’ do.  Some of the stuff I read about in the local papers or see on the local news would NOT play out when I was a mere tyke.  My mother, who WAS a teacher, would have--simply--dug my grave, and my father would have tossed me in, and put the dirt on top of me, if I DARED to cut-up in school.

     I went to school, graduated, and went to college, and graduated
