The Democrats in our government have hands drenched in American citizens' blood

Here is a truth that occurred twice in your life time: if you choose to forget it, the price will be dear. One can send out a note like this based on assumptions and woulda, coulda, shoulda and wind up in the end "shouding" all over themselves.
In recent rioting in DC, President Trump quelled the disturbances and avoided another Minneapolis or Washington State and quite a few since. The rioters lined up to do havoc in DC and President Trump stopped it by sending in the National Guard. It worked and the Democrats began the chant, saying that it was illegal to send out troops into civilian zones. With the help of the dirty press it almost sounded plausible. President Trump proved them wrong and they shut up, but immediately began a movement to make DC a state thus giving some Democrat governors the last word on allowing DC to be pillaged and burned.

I grew up in New York state during that time when people were proud of our great country, its flag, and possessed an abiding faith that God kept watch over us all. My father passed away when I was three months old, and as a result, my family was of very modest means. Higher education was not on my horizon. Along with my two sisters, it followed that we shared the profound blessing to have grown up in a matriarchal household. My mother was one of those strong women you hear about from those times who worked in a munitions factory during the war and held a second job as the cashier in a movie theater. Mother taught us core lessons in ethics, values and behavior. I took an interest in changing politics at about fifteen or sixteen and railed against the growing trends toward disrespect for all that we cherished. From that time, I took an interest in poetry and have attempted to use it to vent my frustration and dismay at the onslaught of disregard for America that has plagued us for decades. As I approach my eightieth birthday, I can’t think of anything more rewarding than to keep on keeping on.
