The shocking actions of a young madman at the Sandy Hook
School has brought out the worst political slugfest I’ve seen in my life. Lost in the tragedy are the grieving families
and their needs at what must be their darkest hour.
The argument about Gun Free Zones and the failure of even
the toughest gun control laws to curb violence have created even more division
in America if that was possible. Then of
course there’s the Fiscal Cliff and what half of us call wasteful and reckless
government spending. The tax vs.
government extortion argument is out-of-control.
Our emotions are raw and American’s speech has gone beyond
toxic. We must debate these items and
come to some kind of a solution respectful of one another’s rights.
It is the Holiday Season where Christians, Jews and most others
celebrate our families, friends and people we work with. I know I’m not alone to have gone over the
top with my own strongly Libertarian opinions.
Facebook, Twitter and throughout Cyberspace along with talk
radio is the ugliest battles I’ve seen to date.
Facebook de-friending must be on overload today.
I have made the last political statement of 2012. I pledge not to make a political statement,
respond to similar posts or “Like” anything political on Facebook until
2013.
Until 2013, I will only talk about entertainment, love,
friendship, families, kids and critters. Politics are off limits! Please pass this memo around so we can
concentrate on the good things and people in our lives!
