MONSTERS ABOVE THE LAW.

 Gun manufacturers are murderers.  They continue to make assault rifles that are designed to kill innocent people, and they will continue to do so. They try to blame the maniacs who buy them, but make them available to those maniacs while they reap huge profits. Our government, mostly Republicans, are useless in stopping this carnage. There is no need for assault rifles, but  the law keeps allowing their manufacture and distribution, no matter how many children are murdered, no matter how many parents are mowed down in cities across America. Our laws protect the multimillionaire owners of death-designed products and will continue to do so. America is no longer the shining city on the hill, it is the fearful fortress where mass murders can can take up a protected position and fire at will.

THE BIGGEST THIEVES.

If churches were taxed, the government would have much more money, life would be easier for ordinary people, and televangelists would not be multimillionaires. Churches should pay taxes.

MEN'S ROOM

Have you noticed that the TV commercials for Wilton Simpson only feature men because these guys hate women and only want to rule them. Nobody is more of a misogynist than Ron DeSantis who thinks he should have control over all the women in Florida and, if he becomes president, all the women of America. No woman should vote for DeSantis.

 If justice has a fatal flaw

It's that one man is above the law.

Trump commits crime after crime

And never does a day of time.

SEPARATED AT BIRTH

GIG YOUNG AND ROBERT STERLING 

FORE!

You can be sure that Donald Trump isn't mourning the death of Ivan as much as he is trying to figure out how he can steal her 100 million dollars. He has already managed to have her buried at one of his golf courses, which she would find humiliating. And one wonders A, how one can fall down a spiral staircase and B. How one could get a torso bruise from such a fall. That's without commenting on how young she was and her excellent state of her health. Nobody will answer these questions, of course.and her final resting place will remain an inaccessible golf resort rather than an distinguished urban cemetery. 

SORRY CHARLIE

 I like you Charlie Crist, but no male politician should ever state they'e pro-life.

You lost my vote.

THE BEST MOVIES WE NEVER SAW.

 We tend to think that people in power are smart. And while they often are they can be incredibly stupid and short-sighted. Take for example 20th Century Fox and Colonel Parker. Both Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley were great talents whose values were wasted by a stupid studio and a mediocre promoter. Monroe want to play Grushenka in The Brothers Karamazov, but was denied the opportunity by her studio. They also refused to let her do the lead with Frank Sinatra in the never-made musical of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn and the role of Lola in Damn Yankees with Tab Hunter and Of Human Bondage with James Dean. Three possible classics not to be. Also imagine how much more powerful Bus Stop would have been with Elvis Presley paired with Monroe. It was suggested but nixed by the moronic Colonel Parker who put Presley into role after shallow role when Elvis had the talent for bigger projects like Oklahoma, Carousel and the aforementioned Bus Stop. The cinematic talents of both Monroe and Presley were wasted by greedy, unimaginative men who thought they knew better. Presley caved because he felt he owed the Colonel something (he didn't)  Monroe because she was easily threatened and overpowered. The loss was ours, lovers of films who would have had more than a handful of great movies starring two of the most incredible talents of their time.

A PLETHORA OF LIARS.

 It's very discouraging how many lies people tell these days. Trump is, of course, the grand champion of lying. But there are many others. Almost every person who does a Prevagen commercial lies about their improved memory. All weight-loss quick fixes are lies. And a major liar is the Oxygen network. They list as new all their crimes shows subtitled "Secrets Uncovered." They are all just old repeat programs with maybe one minute of new content, if that. All politicians lie, Republicans far more than Democrats. And so do all mattress makers who charge a fortune and promise a world of benefits. Like I said, it's very discouraging when you consider all the pants that are on fire these days.

WHO MAKES THESE KILLING MACHINES?

 One of the cliches about mass shootings that the news networks sprout is that "these weapons got into the wrong hands." Bullshit. When it comes to assault weapons there are no "right" hands.They are weapons of murder, designed for war, designed to slaughter human beings. And one should be wary of anyone, anyone, anyone who owns an assault rifle.

MORE REPUBLICAN-SANCTIONED MURDERS.

 Today six innocent people were killed In Highland Park, Illinois, with the blessing of the gun-happy Republican Party and a majority of the Supreme Court. These are the dangerous elements of our country who have provided the means for serial killers to operate and often escape justice. It was a right wingers jury who overlooked the murder of 17 year-old Trayvon Martin and let cold-blooded killer George Zimmerman go free. It was right winger nut Tucker Carlson who embraced and still condones double murderer Kyle Rittenhouse and encouraged another moronic jury to set this killer free. It is the Republican Party that defends the right for non soldiers  to own assault weapons whose only use is to slaughter men, women and children, And it is the rogue majority of the Republican Supreme Court with their demented definition of the 2nd Amendment who pave the way for still more mass shootings. Enjoy this Fourth of July because, unless you vote blue in the future, this may be your last Independence Day.

THE SENSELESS CENSORS.

 On Watch Facebook a clown pulls a chair out from under someone seated. That person falls to the floor in a way that could damage their spine and back. The clown runs off to victimize someone else. I wrote that the clown deserved a punch in the face. I was banned from any further comments since the censors thought my comment was too harsh. Apparently they thought showing someone pulling a chair out from an innocent, unsuspecting victim was perfectly acceptable. Interesting the high standards they have for readers despite the low standards they have for video contributors.
