Hypocrisy Has No Bounds

*Just an opinion: Ignore if you choose. Burn the city down, they yell! Crowds march chanting, screaming It’s not like they haven’t already done it So the threat is real, but goes ignored Allowed as if this is all ‘peaceful’ Negative comments about them are refrained, not said The rest of us wait for violence, to break out in darkness Then wake to hear about what is lost next The media mostly do not care Police are mainly told to stand down These rioters rule the streets these days Oh, but there are more things to care about… Like calling infiltrated protesters who entered the capital - Domestic Terrorists - Hypocrisy has no bounds while unity cannot be one way!

IMHO, politicians are for themselves, not for the people. They will say/act depending on who the audience is. Nicely written Heidi. :) Linda

I think you speak for many, Heidi. I too agree with you. How are we seeking peace if we keep burning down our cities? How is that safe for one and all? Sigh... Prayers for love and peace :)

Aren't they lucky they can riot and burn without any comeback. Many paid in blood for the freedom we have today They wouldn't get away with it in other countries that rule with an iron fist. Enjoy your week Heidi. Tom

“We wait for violence to break out in darkness” - sadly this is what cowards, followers and domestic terrorists do to the rest of us. Keep it up.

Yes, they do Caren and we have been through it all summer long until now, still carrying on. But, it is this exact issue that seems to keep being minimized, just empowering them. Leading all to believe , there is no law and order. Then those who ignore it all , complain about others?? Thank you. :)

I one million percent agree with you here, Heidi... Where do people think the 'Insurrectionist' got the idea that there would be no consequences?! Amazing what blinders the majority of this nation has on, if you ask me. 'Course, nobody asks me. lol. Peace, Gershon

Thank you for your understanding Gershon. It is so frustrating and there certainly are blinders on. There is no uniting, keeping blinders on either! Peace to you too :)
