Every word. Thank you!

After posting this OP, and returning to tend to my garden, I wondered if everyone was familiar with "A Clockwork Orange"? I suppose if they are not familiar with the original, they are experience the re-make being recorded in every community in the United States, every single day now.

The sadly predictable rise in shootings, reported in the media, is a sign that those particles of dust are finding the gravitational pull weakened, and going out of control. The next level, who mistake themselves for Rambo-flavored ICE, are thinking they might have been given license to engage in violence in a public setting. And the militia bobbel-heads in ICE indeed have license, which we must make temporary.

My sister just messaged me that her granddaughter just left this place safely. She plays basketball, and is very talented, getting some nice offers for after high school. Just a reminder of the tense climate we are in:
