GUNS!→ Outlaw vs. Disrupt

I have a long-time-friend named Jeff Friedman. A very sharp-minded, practical, outwardly-caring person. The man who would be President in another life and we would all be better off for it, type of good-guy. We are always debating something or other over email, text, and outside-beers in the East Kensington…

Aggressive Panhandling Alert

We don’t talk about homelessness as a society for the same reasons we don’t talk about child abuse. It’s a generic reason: simply makes us uncomfortable. You can’t even really write about child abuse. And so I won’t here. Let’s talk about homelessness, or more specifically, let’s talk about panhandling…

A year and a day ago today, George Floyd went to buy a pack of cigarettes and was dead inside a half hour. And for the conservatives in the back, yes, he was arguably high when he did it. Same time, the pandemic, mass-unemployment, the stimulus checks and near perfect weather conditions, prompted mass protests across the country. Black Lives Matter was the chant. What has changed? Joe Biden is successful as a juxtaposition to Trump. Which simply means not tweeting obscenities at 3am.

Darnella, A Radical Teenager

Now that the nine-and-a-half-minute-neck-kneeler Derek Chauvin is tucked away in isolation, on 23-hour-lock down, in anticipation of an appeal that will ultimately fail. And, with his accomplices, who stood by and watched, about to go on trial: Let us recognize Darnella Fraizer and the people who raised her. A seventeen…

2020 and Things

This past year, my neighbor lost his daughter, a police officer, during a heinous act of domestic gun violence. My other neighbor, who was actively becoming my closest friend, lost his own life in a way that his immediate circle still doesn’t fully understand. One of the chief personalities inspiring…

Society Says:

It is respectable to be addicted to money. Tobacco kills six million people around the world each year. It is understandable to be addicted to power. Trump being delusional about the Democrats stealing the election. Drug addicts should go to jail. Reluctant we are to visualize and accept being addicted to substances.

The Soviet Union failed where China is succeeding. If the Russians had the technology of today: specifically the data and surveillance toolset, they may have been more successful. Meanwhile, American style democracy around the world is looking more and more dysfunctional.
