A few words in response to the national day of hate and chicken...

[WilliamPitt]

I am sick at heart - sick down to the deepest roots of my soul - of treating this as rational, as logical, as anything other than utter and complete derangement. We are in a full mess, friends and neighbors, and pretending gravity doesn't exist beyond the will of God isn't going to cut it in the voting booth from here on out. I have all the sympathy in the world for those who have been scammed, conned and taken advantage of, but I am all the way done with living in a country run by the professionally duped.

If your upbringing or pastor or background or whatever leads you to hate total strangers because of who they love, where they live, what they look like, how they worship or if they worship, if you have devoted yourself to an 'Us' or 'Them' mentality and refuse to abandon such poison, if you have no ears to hear, but instead choose to pursue a course of vitriol and division, here is a truth: we will break you across our knee like so much kindling. We are large, we contain multitudes, and yours is a course of dissolution and despair.

Cast aside your furious obedience. Freedom begins with a "No."

It is enough.

3. You mapped it out perfectly, Will.......

It's a shame you aren't describing something that happened in the distant past. We do not live in interesting times. We live in horrible times. The age of the cretin reptile.
