The Crime Boss

Imagine if the CEO of a company was removed from his job, and then he organized a mob and they stormed the building and caused damage and death. Now imagine that this same former CEO was convicted of falsifying business records. Imagine he was indicted and paid off large sums of money for crimes such as sexual assault. Imagine the same person lied over and over and it was proven that he maliciously lied about immigrants, and other people. Imagine he used inflated numbers that could not exist in the scenarios in which he was using them. Then imagine, dire warnings from people who worked with him that he should never be in power again. And then, imagine that the company's board of directors rehired him to be CEO again.

How to Become a Dictator

If you ever wondered how the likes of Hitler and other dictators could gain power, now I guess we know. First they vilify a group of people. Then they inflame the prejudice and hatred of the paranoid. Pretty soon it doesn't matter if there is any truth in it at all because that hatred burns so hot.

No School on Election Day

When I was a child, we went to school on election day. It was always interesting for us, to see all of those adults coming into our school to vote. Today, most students won't go to school on Election Day because it has become dangerous to have outsiders in the school. That isn't because of immigrants. The enemy from within that has been talked about so much by one of the candidates, is a burning hatred of others. It's not from across the borders. It's a hatred burning hot inside closed-minded paranoid people.

Escape From Wisconsin

Behind the Cheddar Curtain

This weekend we took a trip deep into Wisconsin (behind the cheddar curtain) to a funeral in Sheboygan. So, a quick stop at Lambeau Field, and also Lake Michigan was in order.
