Don't NOT Won't

The saying goes "Time heals all wounds." Maybe it does but maybe sometimes it doesn't even come close. And if you don't mind a suggestion, I wouldn't offer that pious platitude to Heather Heyer's mom.

One year ago, cowardly clusters of angry, disappointed white men marched through the streets of Charlottesville, Virginia, pretending to protest the removal of a statue of a prominent Confederate States general. You remember the  Confederacy; they fought the Union and lost. Strange how so many folks never got over that, especially since they weren't there in the first place. How's that "time flies" mentality working for you now?

Tiki Nazi Boys

What the march really was an air horn call, not a dog-whistle, for all those white people who decided since they couldn't change what they wouldn't accept and they couldn't accept what they knew they could never change this time they'd march around with tiki torches and chant snappy slogans popular almost a century ago and a continent away.         

So much light but still not bright

And when you have the equivocator-in-chief providing air cover for hate, it would be impossible for there to NOT be a repeat performance. So please don't be surprised when our national news today is dominated by events from Lafayette Square in Washington DC. 

Difference between cymbal and symbol

If you don't mind (or even if you do), I'll be angry that this is happening yet again. Actually, I'll be way more than angry and you can probably guess which orange-hued orangutan with a too-long tie I'm blaming for it. And the beards have all grown longer overnight.
