our government is making life impossible and the anarchists will continue to rise. So sad. I liked this poem, Panagiota.

I'd love to smack their butfs down- don't read or listen to dream stealers. Good will win the day, Control your thoughts~ then you and I can control our emotions,I say. Panagiota xx

I live in a Jewish enclave, for the most part -- but I know that I am no safer here than most other places... Although at least I know that my neighbors won't point a gun at me. Were I to move to an all-black enclave, I would have no such assurance, as I found out the hard way in 1974-75, when my neighborhood was 80% black... And so, for that reason among many others, (one of which is housing affordability), we remain separate enclaves...

If I were Jewish I'd hide in an enclave. Jews for no reason are once again, undert attack. I have never understood this. I lived in Hyde Park once in Chicago and had no problems... But other parts are bullets flying.you are not welcome in a hood,nor am I.i have friends who live in the hoods. They are Black and terrified to die at the hands of their brothers in Chicago. It's so very sad. ANARCHISTS of any color despise others who are law ading. If you wear a yarmulke, chances you get attacked worsen. Bless all good people who work and support law and order!

Hello Panagiota, re to but just like your counrty people do not want to work. Jobs are there but they do notwant to work. A ot of jobs here are in jeopardy, but people need money so they work. Same here i see a lot of empty buildings. I wonder what will happen next. Hugs Darlene xxxx--oooo Darlene

With governors here closing businesses, all economic levels are hurt. Retired here have Sociall Secirity plus other monies. We have lost millions of jobs here in our state of current hysteria. I worry for the young with families and whose jobs are now in jeopardy. Ghettos are kept poor here by Mayors. People who opened businesses may never open them again, in sum, all are hurting. There is plentiful charity here for all. We are not a 3rd world country. Jobs are open here but lazy butts won't take them.. Panagiota xxxx-0000

In time to come ghettos both black, white and brown will spring up everywhere, We seem to be going back in time, but if its the only safe way to live then so be it. Tom

When I said White enclaves, I wasn't downing them. Having lived in Chicago, I don't want a bullet in my brain. I left. I meant today in 2020. Anarchists come in all colors. Whites included. They want to topple all cities, like theft are statues. Even Gandhi? They show zero knowledge of history. I don't know what direction we are going. I only know it is unbalanced, absurd and Soros funding Worlwide unrest! Without the web, Soros and a herd like mentality, I do think we would be fine...,Panagiota xx
