For Christmas

As We Near Christmas…

Let’s not forget the reason for the season!

This Year’s Christmas Trees

The Last Of A Dying Breed Of Gentleman

First we lost John McCain, now George H.W.Bush.  Men who put country before party and service before self.  Are there any like these in the current generation?

Some People…….

You just can’t reason with.  You try to help them, and It’s like talking to a brick wall.

Racism, Xenophobia, And Islamaphobia….

Have no place in a civilized society.  We are all humans, no matter what race, nationality, or religion we come from. God made us all the same, and all should be respected.

Karma’s A Bitch!

With Divided Government..

Such as what we will have starting in January when Democrats take control of the House, you will have either cooperation between the parties, or gridlock.  Work on the things that you agree on, like infrastructure, and veteran’s matters, and perhaps that will rub off on major things like Immigration.

No Donald……

You have not personally told your racist, white nationalist, homophobic, or zenophobic followers to attack people, send bombs through the mail, or insult the media, but your words egged them on.  People could have and might have been injured because of your followers’ actions.  Words can hurt, chose them wisely!

Keeping Them Safe

Journalists should be able to do their job without being threatened, harassed, or otherwise harmed.  The news should not be subject to the whims of government leaders and others who don’t like what’s being reported about them.  Is nothing safe anymore?

Beyond My Understanding…..

How God could take an 18 year old girl, just beginning her life.  His reasons are not ours, I guess…

I Believe You Ladies…

No one believed me either when I was being tortured and bullied in school.

Thanks Mom And Wal Mart

I Consider Myself A Gentleman….

I would never hit, force myself upon, or otherwise assault a woman. I have too much respect for them.

If Everyone Thought This Way The World Would Be A Better Place

Why Risk….

Death threats and public humiliation and bullying if you weren’t telling the truth?  Why would anyone think that the person was lying?

I Think I’ve Seen…..

Enough rain to last a thousand lifetimes!   It’s a wonder we all haven’t washed away!

Just Because One Doesn’t Subscribe To Any Religion

Does not make them anti-religion

Idiots!

These people who are burning their Nike gear in protest of Colin Kaepernick being in an add are totally stupid.  NFLers who are kneeling for the anthem are NOT disrespecting the flag! They are protesting racial inequality and police brutality against unarmed black men. If ya wanna blow your money, be my guest…

Some Of My Fan Fiction-How The Originals Should Have Ended

                                         KLAUS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As the White Oak stake pierced his heart, the last thoughts that went through Klaus’ mind were that in giving his life to save Hope, he, Klaus Mikaelson, the fierce Original Hybrid, the creature who brought fear into even the most evil men with just the mention of his name finally did something good in his thousand years of existence.  And he could die without any fear or complaints knowing that.

   As he returned to consciounsness, Klaus kept his eyes closed, not knowing what to expect.  Would he feel the heat of the fiery flames of damnation, or would there be nothingness? Would the Devil himself be there to greet him, or perhaps the scores of enemies he had sent to their deaths be waiting to consume him?  Whatever his fate, he was a Mikaelson, he would take whatever Fate dished out to him.

   HIs thoughts were interrupted by a voice he had only heard in his mind the past 15 years.  “I’ve been waiting for you Klaus. You told me when I died that I was going to a place that even you would go to one day, and here we are.”  “Camille?” he smiled. “Yes, in the flesh , or make that spirit,” Cami laughed. “Camille, I have missed you so much, “ Klaus weeped, taking her hand. “I am so sorry that you were dragged in all the supernatural madness in New Orleans.  If I’d have made you leave town like I wanted, you would be living the life that you wanted.”

   “Don’t kick yourself Klaus”, Cami comforted him.  “I made my choices, and sometimes they bring consequences that we don’t like. The only regret I have is that I was afraid that when I told you that I loved you, you would discount it because of me being delirious. That’s not even close. I was in my right mind when I said that. I love you Klaus, and leaving you was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do.  With you here now, we can both go on to total peace.”

    “And I love you too, Camille. There hasn’t been a day that has gone by that I haven’t thought of you.  And now with you by my side, and knowing that Hope will be taken care of, I have found Peace.”

     As Klaus pulls Cami close to him and kisses her, he knows that that is the truth.

                                   Elijah

——————————————————————————————————

    “Niklaus has been redeemed and knows  that he is loved, my job is complete” were Elijah’s last thoughts before he felt his body begin to disintegrate from the white oak. He didn’t care if he was headed towards Peace, Hell, or Oblivion,  no creature should live forever, and he was ready for whatever was ahead.

    Awakening, he heard the voice he had longed to hear for months. “Why am I not surprised that you and Klaus decided to make like Thelma and Louise and go out in a blaze of glory, no pun intended,” Hayley laughed.  Running to her and pulling Hayley into his arms, Elijah knew that if there was a God, he had truly been kind to him. “I am so sorry Hayley, you know that I had no memories of who you were and how much I loved you.  Please forgive me, because I don’t think I could ever forgive myself. As for being here, I swore that I would never allow Niklaus to face the unknown alone, even death. Hope will never be alone.Rebekah, Kol, Freya, and Marcel promised me that they would always be near her. I feel like a very heavy weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I have missed you so much. If this is Paradise, it’s far beyond whatever I’ve imagined it to be.”

    “You’re forgiven,” Hayley smiles.  “I knew someday that we’d meet again.  Now about that dance…..”

Opinion

The law should not be subject to politics.  All US citizens, whether Democrat, Republican, or what have you, should be treated equally and fairly.  Judges and lawyers need to put their political views on the back burner when carrying out their duties. The Constitution is for all who live in the US.

Farewell To An American Hero

Rest In Peace, senator McCain.  You served your country well for over 50 years, always putting nation over party.  There will never be another like you!

Last week, I went to the doctor to get the results of the blood work I had done a few weeks ago.  The result is….they don’t know.

How Low Can You Go?

Parents of a school in Achille, Oklahoma who used the internet to threaten a 12 year old transgender student need to be arrested before someone listens to them and the child is hurt!  Seriously, threatening a kid?!!  This is totally disgusting.  Hate of the LGBTQ community is getting out of control!

HOW LOW CAN YOU GO THREATENING A KID!!??

These Are Crazy Times

Can't we all get along?  All this political and religious strife is tearing our society apart.  I fear that it's not going to get any better until people on both sides come together and see what damage is being done!

Someone Is Going To Get Hurt….

If these attacks on the press continue!  Two reporters from CNN have received death threats on live TV, and it’s not going to get any better, knowing the atmosphere. These are crazy times we live in.

Blowing The Team Up

Lets see…

With their 2 best players (Manny Machado and Johnathan Schoop)

One of their top starters (Kevin Gausman)

Their 3 top relievers (Zach Britton, Darren O’day and Brad Brach)  traded away, my Baltimore Orioles are tearing things down and rebuilding.  I hope we don’t have to wait 14 more years for another winning season!

HI Mom!

The Press Is Not The Enemy Of The People……

But those who would surpress  it are!

The Time For Civility Is Past

Remember when the birthers were running wild, saying that President Obama wasn’t born in the US?

Remember all the images of him being lynched in effigy?

Remember the riots republicans carried out in congressional town hall meetings in 2010 during the health care debate?

Remember republicans claiming that Michelle Obama was not a woman?

Remember Pizzagate?

Heard about death threats against Maxine Waters, a black member of congress?

So Republicans, if you cant take it, don’t dish it out!  We can fight for our rights with the best of em!

Fair Is Fair….

Karma’s a bitch and what comes around goes around.  If a baker is allowed not to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple, then a restaurant should also be allowed to not serve a member of the Trump administration.

To All You Trump Voting Idiots

A Message to Trump Supporters
by Mike Miller

'A message to all tRump supporters:
When this national nightmare is over....and it WILL be over, hopefully sooner rather than later....and the country is returned to normalcy, order is restored, and patriotism and common sense replaces bigotry, hate and stupidity, don't expect to regain the stature you once enjoyed as a citizen and return to the society you ransomed to placate your hate. Everything this country once stood for....everything better men and women than you sacrificed their lives to protect and preserve....everything we held dear to our hearts, was cast aside, thrown away, denigrated, defiled, stepped on, ridiculed, and despised by you in order to support the most corrupt, dishonest, fascist traitor to every occupy the people's house.
When our free press told you the truth about him, you rallied behind his cries of "fake news" and supported his attack on our free press.
When fake "chrisitan" religious frauds attempted to hijack religious freedom in order to force feed their own deluded brand of bigotry and hate disguised as "christian values" you stood by and let them stoke your inbred prejudices.
When the same mindset that turned Germany into Nazi Germany in the 1930's tried to establish a foothold here, you again showed your true colors and instead of quashing it in its tracks, you abandoned the spirit of this country, forgot history, and allowed its hatred and division to seep into our society.
When healthcare was taken away from the most at-risk of our society, you allowed it to happen.
When children were denied food and healthcare, you supported it.
When innocent African-Americans were murdered by law enforcement, you remained silent, only to finally raise your voices in disgust and hatred when they knelt in protest.
When children were murdered in schools and sane gun legislation was called for, you sided with the gun lobby and decided that the murder of school children was more favorable than sensible gun laws.
When hard-working, law-abiding, tax-paying citizens were denied their constitutional and human rights simply because of who they chose to love, you allowed discrimination and hate to overtake your sensibility and relegated them to second-class citizenry, using YOUR "religious freedom" as the rationalization for the hatred you hid behind.
When environmental policies that demanded clean water and clean air were thrown aside in order to coddle to the monetary interests of the polluters, you remained silent.
When policies that assisted the homeless, the elderly, the needy, the hungry, the veterans, the retired, and the sick were systematically nullified and terminated in order to transfer that tax money into the pockets of billionaires, you turned a blind eye to their struggles.
When children seeking refuge were taken from their parents and housed in cages, instead of outrage you supported the victimization and maltreatment of refugees seeking asylum.
When the reputation of this country and our commitment to our steadfast allies were trashed in order to appease our most rabid enemies, you supported the traitors who betrayed the country and everything we once stood for.
In every instance where compassion, civility, sympathy, acceptance, inclusion, humanity, fairness, justice, and respectability were needed, you supported the policies and the people who showed no compassion, no civility, no sympathy, no acceptance, no inclusion, no humanity, no fairness, no justice, and no respectability to anyone whose very existence they disregarded and refused to legitimize.
So again, when this is finally over, don't expect to be accepted back into the society of the REAL Americans you stabbed in the back simply to legitimize your own prejudices. At every turn....at every chance....at every opportunity, when you were called on to support the foundation and pillars that this country was built on, you looked the other way and were willing to support those who were tearing down those pillars and destroying that foundation. You had no qualms about sacrificing this country to justify your own intolerance. When the choice was to support your country and its constitutional guarantees for everyone, or support the traitor who has worked tirelessly to destroy those constitutional guarantees, you chose the corrupt wannabe dictator over the constitution. Please know that there are many of us, this person especially, who truly love this country, and are intelligent enough to see the damage your misguided support of this administration has reaped. I, for one, will NEVER FORGET and NEVER FORGIVE you for the choice you made and what that choice did to this country.'

The Man Who Insulted A Whole Continent

Trump just can’t keep his mouth shut!  Now he has said that some African countries are “shitholes” and has said why are we letting in people from Haiti and not more from Norway ( a mostly white country). In the past he has said:

Mexicans are rapists and criminals

Obama is not an American citizen

Tried to have Muslims banned from the US

Said the white supremacists that caused all the trouble in Charlottesville were “good people”

And he even lies about not saying these things, even though some of his fellow Republicans say that he said these things

If it quacks like a duck and acts like a duck….It’s a racist
