The coronavirus has intensified my anger towards the Trump administration, the GOP, MAGA, and the other haters. I strongly believe in Karma, and based on how these people have behaved in this state of their existence, they will reap what they have sowed in a future existence.

What we are witnessing spilling into the streets of our country, is the built up frustration from the mishandling of the pandemic, unemployment and fear from not knowing how bills will be paid, and the murder of innocent BLK ppl.

Former Indiana Congressman Steve Buyer, 64, arrested & convicted of insider trading thinks it is unreasonable for him to serve any jail time. Why do White Collar criminals feel like they shouldn't be imprisoned for insider trading, bc their crime didn't cause pain and suffering.

What happened to Law and Order, isn't this the mantra of the Republican Party? How can we People of Color, protect ourselves from the Lawgivers, when there is no doubt that they make laws to protect their interest, and guarantee their dominance over all others.

The 2nd Amendment seems to apply to Whites only. Armed white ppl are patriots, and Armed Blk ppl are terrorist. The Blk Panther Party, was destroyed by the FBI and other agencies because photographs and videos of armed Blk men sparked deep fears among some White ppl.

The total workforce of USA is 164M of a 330M population. 50% of the workforce makes less than $35K per year. This means that a significant amount of white ppl, are struggling to make ends meet. Why would anyone that is trying to live on $35K or less, vote GOP.

For those that have never served. Let it be known, that even with the best trained & equipped Armed Forces, it takes logistics support to win Wars. Most African Americans might not have served in WW-II combat units, but they provided crucial support in the logistics chain.

1/3. When I joined the service in 63, I met a sailor that I mistook for a West Indian because of his accent who all the Blks on the base referred to as a Geechee. It wasn't until the 80's after reading a story about a Peace Corp volunteer working in West Africa, that I made...

Man sticks his hand in the cage of a Tiger at the Naples Fl. Zoo (after the Zoo was closed). Tiger attempts to eat the man's arm, police shoots Tiger. Why do humans continue to cage other animals? Zoos are outdated. We should look at building Simulation Wild Animal Environments.

I keep seeing tweets, about the possibility of a civil war if Trump looses. The idea of a civil war, is sheer stupidity and borderlines madness. The last civil war resulted in the death of over 600K Americans. Listen up, hear me loud and clear; Poor ppl die in wars, not the rich.

Here is a question for all the white citizens of the Nation. Would you feel comfortable with a 90% representatives of all branches of govt being people of color? If you cannot answer honestly, just ignore the question. I consider this issue to be the major prob facing us.

I have never felt any bitterness because of my exposure to Agent Orange, or the death sentence associated with my exposure to this Agent. What I resent, is how I am treated by some employees of the VA. I am not a beggar with my hand extended, I earned the benefits that I seek.

My fellow citizens! Are you pissed off at the mismanagement of our great Nation? You should be. We are functioning like a 3rd World country.The USA has proven on many occasions, that we were the go to Nation when there has been a World crisis. Present leadership has failed us.
