Indeed! "A scourge of small cords" (John 2:15)

good people need not always be peaceful. I also remember a series with David Carradine as a buddhist monk who would settle stuff this way.

Amen.

I've tried to be peaceful but I'm very careful to clarify that I am not a pacifist.

sometimes you can't. sometimes you got to fight your way out. I usually hold on to people as long as they don't step on me. but with what has been going on these last 3 years, I rather have no friends than what I discovered they are! Only a few acquintances left, and the dog and cats. No treason there - although the tom hit me a few days ago when I was spraying the wasps. He must have thought I was a snake LOL

When policemen break the law, there is no law, only the fight for survival. Damn straight. I’ve never even heard of this show.... but I will be researching. 😊

It's a movie that spawned a couple of sequels! I look forward to hearing what you think.

Mickey, I have been praying a lot lately for the right way to present myself and defend my views. I know ranting angrily is not effective but I truly believe folks do need to find some righteous anger, finding ways to speak out with inflaming situations. What is happening to children specifically in our world, and to our freedoms, is unacceptable.

I hear you, loud and clear, my friend. It's always been a challenge for me to discern if I've caused a situation to become inflamed or if that would happen regardless of what I say. We keep praying and working.

In the meantime, you and yours remain in my prayers. 🙏
