Resistance is NOT Futile
The Borg was wrong, resistance is not futile. Captain Picard proved that in science fiction, and it has been proven many times over during the course of mankind. But, it only works when we all get involved. This week, watching what is happening in LA with ICE, the Federalized National Guard, and LAPD police abuse,… Continue reading Resistance is NOT Futile

Will Good People Stand Up and Stand Strong?
If you haven’t heard, there is a recycled person in the Whitehouse. #47, an adjudicated rapist and 34-count felon, took the Oath of Office again, without his hand on the Bible. Based on his actions this week, he has no intention, again, of living up to the words said during the swearing in ceremony. He… Continue reading Will Good People Stand Up and Stand Strong?
