Truly a never ending cycle, after every horror we are reminded "Never Forget!" And here we are. Same wars, same enemies. My father served in Korea, my husband in Vietnam, and it's still all about Russia and China and USA.. Children need street surgery skills more than math now!

It just helped me see racism from a very young age. Jews confuse. We are the socialist civil rights to some, and to others the arch-capitalists behind Globalism. Then you've got many Zionists and a few like me who see clearly that Israel does unto others what was done unto Jews.

Yes! Very true, and have gone by a very biased Canon largely based on English and Spanish law. We don't iterate progressively and scientific as well as social evolution has pretty much been vilified now. I admire parents raising kids these days. Wshew!

We do not iterate and learn applicable techniques from our mistakes. We blame others. We do not take accountability. We suffer a nation of affluent ignorants whose education was all white men from England. What did we expect? LOL
That makes sense. A free press versus trash press versus state run press. We have them all! Step right on up. I never knew anything but prejudice and violence in my own nation because of my immigrant and historic legacy. I have always felt outside society. "Can I see your horns?"

In Arizona and Nevada (I'm from Brooklyn) I watched as the police became more and more militarized. Yes, it's a culture of fear-mongering Fear breeds hate. How can a Border Patrol agent let a 7 year old girl in custody DIE? Fear mongering is at the heart of our very uncivil war.

Do you believe there can be impartial reporting? Are we not as humans by default bringing in a bias, changing the anthropological behavior the moment individual morality comes into play? I truly don't know but suspect we are just not that compartmentalized generally speaking.

John, pretty cool stuff. Tesla is up in Reno. They dethroned Musk there and installed a woman. He seemed okay with it. Apparently, he's smoking most of the northern Nevada and Cali weed these days and people are concerned he's got too many fingers in too many medicated pies. ha!

Why does the press constantly think anyone can make that self-appointed king do anything much less stop lying? It's pathological. Read up on all Cluster-B personalities especially anti-socials becoming Axis 1 psychopaths. This is a very sick creature who will continue to decline.

I do want to say there are many people who work in government agency jobs and are unsung greats of our time. I know because it was done for me here in Nevada. I had a wait for the SSDI, but nothing like the Vets. I didn't even ask for my VA indemnity. They sent it immediately.

One thing I do know: I really choose to not participate in more violence and hatred. It's my life story except for some very wonderful experiences which further strengthened my concern and care for our race. You know, that human one. #syria #middleEast #Russia #israel #Iran ...

I have to watch myself for the same behavior. I'm very biased. But I will take the challenge home and give it real thought before tossing it out, unless I already tossed it out and do not wish it back ever. Kind of like a few ex's. If you're not dead you know who you are. :P

Be careful shoving aside informed and much studied rhetoric. Much less mansplaining why a murdered journalist will have no impact on policy in the Middle East when we are talking about a completely unstable set of nations, Putin and bad press. Oh, I mean "Fake News." So sorry.

My thoughts were waved away as if I were ignorant of a world I've lived in and have been shaped by. And now we see horrid destabilization and Putin laughing. That means terrible things for so many innocent citizens and sociopaths alike.

Not to long ago I argued intensely with a friend about why Zionism and Israel were horrid and trouble was on the horizon for Jews. I was waved away as if I were ignorant. And now we see the destabilization in the region. That means horror for so many innocents and evils alike. :(

There is no way the VA has been keeping all its data on a 50 year old computer device. Maybe on an iPhone made at Google and throttled by Ajit Pai, but c'mon. Bullshit. I watched it happen with my husband in Arizona. No punch cards in those facilities. I guess war and crime pay.
OH the VA. You bring up the VA now? Reminds of that old line "Niagara Falls? Slowly I turn , step by step..." I'm not a Vet but I've heard the horror stories and wonder, when will it ever get fixed???

They are lying. We are a broke nation and not just that, very much in debt to the world and more every day. We are on a brink of social destruction, the world is at war whether declared or not, and the uncivil, criminal factions get rich while we lose our tax-paid insurance?
A commander in chief sends military to a border where there is already a militarized border patrol and to his own admission the wall is already there. I know, I've travelled it on both sides. But a 7 year old in our custody DIES and people are relieved because who cares? Murder.
The V.A. says it's not able to process medical and other benefits for soldiers who are back from Iraq and Afghanistan. The reason they gave? The computer system is 50 years old. I'm SSDI and VA and didn't have to fight or weight. WHY? Our returning vets need those resources now.
