STONE MOUNTAIN REMAKE

The ugly scar on the side of Stone Mountain in Georgia should be ground down and filled in with silver on black making the world's largest mirror.

The Drug War is Destroying America!

Ever since the Drug War started in the late 1960's it has corrupted our justice system exactly the same way the Prohibition of Alcohol did. We dropped Prohibition after 13 years of hellish self-destruction. The Drug War continues 50 years later. From violent streets, to bad policing to overflowing prisons, you can blame the worst of our society's ills on the Drug War.

Happy Father’s Day Daddy.

Happy Father’s Day Daddy. I know you would hate for me to post this picture of you without a good and proper explanation and to try to make a point of something good.

So I will try to.


This is a picture of Jim Shirley Jr. my namesake and father, taken about 1951 when he was a football player at Clemson, which was then a military academy.


It’s not just interesting because of the confederate flag, which was common, but also because of my father’s journey in life.


My dad’s ‘Hall of Fame’ wall of photographs consisted of large portraits of Nelson Mandela, MLK, Muhammad Ali and Jim Brown.


My father was not just part of what is wrong in America he is also still a part of what has gotten better here since he was born.


Yes he hated Trump and Hannity and Limbaugh. My dad threatened to try to assassinate Trump when he was drunk! But that was the same whitey white kid who in 1951 was holding that nasty flag.


Daddy told me that during this time when he was first dating my mother, June Eddins, they would go to music shows in Black segregated theaters and the White people sat in the balcony...which was the norm at the time forcing Black people into balconies of theaters in White neighborhoods.


My father and mother helped work through so much hard progress.


That White guy in the white suit on the Right, moved to the Left as he left this world… we are all moving 'Left' if that means giving everybody equal rights. God bless

Defeating Trump is the Most Important Thing PERIOD

Defeating Trump is the Most Important Thing PERIOD

SLOW DOWN

Slow down, you're chasing my life away
No time in life for tastin'
The sweet perfections of life with you
Slow motion living could not be blue
A life's to good to hurry
Slow down, slow living is good for you

Don't try so hard to hit ceiling
(Goin' to get you down)
Don't tell me, I know the feeling
(Sure will bring you down)
I'd like to be a goal getter
(Goin' to tell you now)
Slow motion, I can see better
(That's to see you)
Slow down, you're chasing my life away
Slow down, don't answer me "no"

I'd like to let you go
But it's sure there's favour in
Keep it slow, so I get saver in loving you

Slow down you're chasing my life away
No time in life for tastin'
The sweet perfections of life with you
(Goin' to get you down)
Don't tell me, I know the feeling
(Sure will bring you down)
I'd like to be a goal getter
(Goin' to tell you now)
Slow motion, I can see better
(That's to see you)
Slow down, you're chasing my life away
Slow down, you're chasing my life away
Slow down, you're chasing my life away

Don't try so hard to hit ceiling...

The Most Difficult Decision

The decision as to whether to impose the death penalty in the most heinous cases of horrific violent acts, is clearly the most difficult moral decision human beings are faced with. 

For many people the only possible reason to excuse someone from the death penalty when they are convicted of a heinous violent murder is that perhaps, the justice system got the case completely wrong; and in fact the convicted killer is innocent. I think any of us would agree that the crime of killing an innocent person on behalf of a society and a bureaucracy and a legal system that is not perfect and is at times corrupted; any of us would agree that that crime by that giant corrupted bureaucracy is even more heinous than an individual crime. Because when the bureaucracy makes a big mistake it is guaranteed that the same mistake will happen over and over and over again.

That is called hell on earth.

God asks us to create heaven on earth.

Voting by Mail

Look Mr. Trump! I'm voting by mail! And you can't stop it because it's governed by States, NOT the Federal government!
