Germ warfare
Let me get this straight. WWIII is going on all around us. There is germ warfare, bullets and arrows flying everywhere. Someone is offering you a gas mask, a bullet proof vest and a helmet and you rather take horse wormer and turn down the protective gear. No. I won’t come to your funeral. You’re an idiot.
Two points
First you are not required to leave a name or Email address to get a Speak Out submission published. You are reading one right now. If you notice the name and email section do not have a red asterisk next ro them indicating Required Fields.
Next, to the person who seems to think we do not need a SWAT team or ERT you obviously are misinformed. I lived next to a drug dealer years ago here in Taylorville. The TPD SWAT if the team was called SWAT executed a flawless apprehension of a manufacturer of meth and narcotics. Guess what they were all heavily armed and neither my small children, wife or myself was shot. See they have special training and actually know what they are doing!!
Dark week
As bad as this past week was, there was one bright spot. Did anyone notice that the “I hate America” club in the House of Representatives weren’t in the news? Yes AOC and her squad, who detest this great country, were absent! I guess it is hard to call out how bad America is, when you’ve got Afghanis falling off American C17 planes, while attempting to escape to this racist, evil, and despicable country! And if that’s not bad enough, Afghanis are risking their lives and families lives, trying to get through multiple layers of Taliban checkpoints, just for a long shot chance to get on a plane to America! I’m sure the “I hate America” club will spin this as the poor illiterate Afghanis though the planes were heading to Cuba or Venezuela! As the US continues its withdrawal from Afghanistan, the far right never misses an opportunity to stoke fear. They’re scaring people about Afghans (many of whom helped American soldiers at great personal risk) seeking freedom saying that we are letting the enemy in. It is typical fear mongering that obscures the real truth: The enemy is already here. The terrorists in this country right now aren’t the Afghans seeking freedom. They look a lot more like the people spreading the lies and fear.
