Flight from reality?
Greetings and salutations from the sand, sun and surf of Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and the balmy, drizzly, expensive island of Nantucket! Great to be with you on this Thursday morning, the 29th day of March, 2012, another yo-yo weather day on Cape, with the temperatures shooting back up overnight. With any luck, the flowers will all bounce back from the frigidity of yesterday’s frosty offering. The good thing about global warming is the fact you can utilize your entire wardrobe of clothing every week, never knowing if some ‘cold front’ might push on through unexpectedly, of course, it is far more likely to be a warm mass of air that grips the country in stifling heat, but what the hell, as long as the oil and gas companies make their PROFIT! Stunning news overnight regarding the Trayvon Martin shooting case in Sanford, Florida. New video tapes surfaced, via ABC NEWS, visually showing an under arrest George Zimmerman being brought into the station of the Sanford Police Department, accompanied by four or five officers, directly after the shooting death of Zimmerman’s victim, Trayvon, who was being moved to the county morgue (his parents not notified for days, while his body was tested for drugs and alcohol). OUR eyes can clearly see Zimmerman’s demeanor, which was very calm, cool and collected, not to mention his clothing, not a tear or even a ruffle. His face appeared unscathed, well kept…not a scratch on him, as WE all watch the closed caption television monitored tape of Zimmerman being led away in handcuffs and into the police barracks. Subsequently being released only minutes later, highly SUSPECT and unheard of in a possible homicide case, RELEASED, with his GUN! and clothing that was part of the evidence needed in solving the case. This of course goes contrary to what both Zimmerman and the Sanford Police have been saying all along about ‘what happened’ on February 26th of this year, apparently sticking by their bull$hit story of how Zimmerman, who outweighed Trayvon by 100 pounds, was ‘attacked’ by the victim, and, in his–via the barbaric, in the state of Florida and twenty some other states, “stand your ground law”–defense, claims he shot the boy in said ’self defense’. A nice story but no one is believing it Mr. Zimmerman. You took it upon yourself to hunt this boy down and corner him as he pleaded for his life and then–YOU SHOT HIM! ‘Let JUSTICE roll down like a waters and righteousness like a mighty stream! ‘ MLK Kudos to the republican party for a heck of a job putting ‘the American people’ (credit late night comic and Senator from the great state of Kentucky, give it up for Mr. Mitch, ‘the mouse’, McConnell, who is always up for giving a heart felt speech about his favorite republican talking point, good ‘ole #33, those pesky, poor, ‘American People’, God Bless ‘em!), first once again as your ‘court’ gets ready to deny 50 million of those ‘American People’ the right to health care without going through your corporate ‘insurance’ monopolies that are, in actuality, only profit centers for investors on Wall Street. Not to mention the fact that you and your cohort puppets will now make the people suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous ‘preexisting conditions’ set by those insurance carriers, while taking your kids off “the parent’s plan”, a plan that they could have shared in for years, yes sir, if your court did not strike down this new humane law for ALL AMERICANS, those kids could have stayed on said plan until they were 26 years of age. Well done sir, would you like to come up and visit Cape Cod and destroy some wildlife while you’re at it! Stay out of my district you hill billy! You and the snakes dressed up in 5000 suits, ‘there are some who call me Koch’, are well on your way to owning the Executive as well as the Senate, what with the voter rights suppression going on in this same state of Florida we speak of right here, right NOW, as well as 34 other states. Who cares if ‘ole Mitt is liked by 30 percent of the public?, “if we suppress the vote for enough blacks, Hispanics, gays, poor elderly and students, we might just get away with it! Is America a great country or what?”… What kind of a Sunday school would have taught “ya’ll” that cheating, stealing and LYING is the best way to go through life? “Hope it’s a wonderful coffee shop Jack!” (credit Charles Grodin and Robert De Niro in the classic 1988 film, “Midnight Run”, telling one everything one needs to know about how it “all works out in the end…”. PRESERVE THE WILDERNESS! Peace~M
