From Momma's Front Porch: Supremacy claims by any ethnicity equals Alt-Wrong

It was and still is sad about what happened at Charlottesville, Virginia. The people took a Que from our President, verbal discussions to agree or disagree which is a part of democracy were ignored. Fist fights and screaming so loud that the face of one screamer displayed anger that I would have expected from a movie about Dante's Inferno. It got bad enough for the police to cancel the protest. Everybody was leaving.

Reading where the police were stationed, led to a problem. The groups were facing each other again. One person who was screaming racists words earlier got into his car. He chose to run into a group of anti-protesters. See the previous blog for death and injury counts.

A problem remains. Our President chose not to condemn the violence or people right away. No one knows what he was waiting for. The words that did come out of his mouth reminded me of a bored person reporting a peeping Tom.

This brings back the memory of an incident from from my younger years. Being over 60 means that was a while ago. Four farmers and my dad were teasing a younger farmer badly. I was sent into the older farmers kitchen to get more coffee. When I came back. I filled every ones cup. The oldest farmer ask the young farmer if he told. He said no and every one got real quiet. The older farmer told him that he was a pile of sh*t. Sh*t can't stand and neither did you when you had the chance. It was a quiet tension filled afternoon. Since the young farmer was confused, dad called him over to the car before we left. He told him to always do the right thing no matter how afraid you are.

The last link puzzles me. Again, President Trump is trying to get identifying numbers on people. THAT IS SCARY AS HELL. What I fear is that he wants to start an internment camp after he gets rid of most of the Constitution and increases his Presidential powers. Democracy seems to scare him. I have a blog and research topics to understand if I have a an idea about a blog. The wording on the last link sound like there might be legal action if I go to what the President considers a socially unacceptable web site. In my 60 plus years, this is the first time I have wondered about how hard it is to get a new identity. I pray that I never have to.

Below is some tweets from Barack Obama and J.K. Rowling.

Barack Obama tweeted a quote from Nelson Mandela's 1994 autobiography "Long Walk to Freedom" Saturday that said, "No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite."

I re tweeted the following from J.K. Rowling that says it the best.
