A Tale of Two Nations

A teen-ager kills little children in their school
   Americans wonder how a person can be so cruel

Up to 13,000 have been killed in Putin’s ‘special operation’
   Russians cheer on their President ~ the hero of their nation

It IS sad what's going on over there on 'the killing fields.'

A topsy turvy world we live in my friend, nothing anywhere and for no one, does it make any sense. Hugs and blessings BOTH SHOULD BE HUNG!
