  I don't understand what you are saying about 1862 again.   :confused:  But I know that December 4th 2016 I will reach 79 years of age.   :yes:  Lordy, I never thought I would live this long, having done some of the dangerous things I have done in the past.   :wink: :biggrin:

In the year 1862 this nation was in "Pre-Civil War".  :wink:   We had slaves, labor laws were nonexistent, and those with wealth oppressed those without it.

Let me be the first to say to you, (early), Happy Birthday my friend!  :food4: Cheers :food4:

Us December babies have to stick together!  :biggrin:

Ludicrous. Fairly clear in the video what took place.

The judge has ordered the jury to keep trying. . .  :eek:

They're going to try again Monday.

There is only one juror, a male, who is having an issue.  The other 11 seem to be on the same page.

Wouldn't want to see this go to a mistrial because of one juror, but that's the way our system is designed to work.

  Yes, it is amazing how the cop could stand like he was at the firing range.  Pumping shot after shot after shot after shot a total of 8 shots.  Hitting the man 5 times in the back from the range of 30, 40, 50, 60 feet  in front of him. Then saying he was afraid for his life, not knowing the man was armed or unarmed.   :rant:

  This cop is just another lying, murdering cold blooded murder.   :mad: :rant:  As all of the Trump people would say, LOCK HIM UP.    :dam:

Just taking the video clip alone, it seems to me that a fairly straightforward conclusion could be drawn.

Sometimes....in your lifetime....you connect with something someone is doing....someone is saying...and you watch the way they tune a sentence or present a reality...and you go...."Whoa.  that was brilliant."

I think we don't have religions that are the dominant voice now.  We have political cults.  In Saudi Arabia and all Sunni Muslim nations, it's AlQaeda and ISIS; in Israel, it's Zionists.  In the US, it's the Born again evangelical fundamentalists.  They have a political agenda for power and riches which their flock may not see.

But the saying is true.  MANY religions came together in the US when Christianity was practiced in the 50's and 60's to push forward an agenda of civil rights and peace.

That statement is very true.  Religion has been along every bloody step of the way throughout recent human history.

And screwing up people's lives, especially anyone's whose lifestyle doesn't fit into their beliefs.
In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on. Robert Frost

Perhaps the butterfly is proof that you can go through a great deal of darkness yet become something beautiful.
