Sigh, don't know what to write...

As I look at our nation the past couple of months

and especially the past couple of weeks, it is just

heartbreaking.. 

Between the election and the reaction from it..to

the treatment of the protestors in North Dakota,

I find myself saying.. this isn’t the America that I grew up

In.  But then maybe I chose not to see what is

out there..  Or maybe the media is rubbing my

face in it…

No matter what side you are on in the Native

Americans and the oil company battle… it is

horrible how the security is allowed to treat the

people who are protesting.  To have huge

mace throwing machines, to use powerful water

hoses on these people is to me, is disgusting.

Where are the government people who love

committees.. where is their call to have a meeting

and find a mutual comprise … there has to be

something all of these people can talk about

and make good decisions ..after all if Nations

are asked to do so.. why not these people?

This is no way to treat humans..

The protest of the people who are so disgusted

with Trump winning… that they feel it is ok to

burn, trash, property that belongs to those who

are innocent and have no horse in that race. Or

who are just as disgusted but show class and

adulthood, by not protesting… The protestors,

who kidnap people on the freeway… and think

Nothing about the children or the mom with them

in those cars who are scared to death of the protestors

who are ranting.. the people blowing their horns in

defiance of being held hostage.  What about the

person in those cars, what about their rights, their lives

and what could be hurtful for their families as they

may be home waiting for that person. Health issues

that should be effected.. What about them?

What an entitled nation we have become.. People

who can’t handle disappointment, who feel they

can act up and it is ok.. it is about them and their

feelings, having no care to those they have used

in their protest? 

Has this all been born out of the late 80’s and 90’s?

I went with a friend to drop off a present for her

granddaughter.. she also had one for her grandson.

I asked why, it wasn’t his birthday… It seems the

mother doesn’t like the other child to feel shorted

because they didn’t get to open anything. It would

hurt his feelings.   We also started about that time

rewarding children who did not work hard enough

to win an award.  That they had a “everyone gets

an award.. or a certificate…. To reward everyone.

What is with that???  

How does the child feel special on “their day” if

Everyone gets a present?  How does the child

Who worked so hard to accomplish a project

or play the game, only to see all the players,

get the same reward that he did?  Kids who

didn’t care .. that didn’t work days or weeks

on a project.. and it showed in their workman

ship… and yet gets the same reward? 

Are these the same kids who are now running up

and down the roads, blocking cars, burning a business

of some one who may have voted the same way, who

Is innocent bystander?  Who don’t know how to handle

disappointment?  Who don’t know how to use it as a

learning tool, to work harder?  Are these the entitlement people?

And as other  Nations watch on television and other media,

As the Americans come unhinged, riot, protest, and

the treatment of those in the way… oh, how proud

we are… 

But the sad thing is.. they are only about 15% of the

Nation..  the other 85% are going to work, living their

lives as they did last week and look on in disgust..

But those people  don’t get on the television screen, or the

other media… Sad.. very sad… indeed…
