Red, White and boo hoo

I have been doing very well to not look at too much Covid-19 statistics and vaccine information and mis-information, or any politics. But today I could not dodge the absolute insanity that I saw on several stations in the United States as Donald Trump supporters stormed The White House! The white privilege was evident as many terrorized the capital with their actions. One woman was killed, but it cannot be helped to consider that if Barack Obama was in office and had insighted rioters, the armed forces would have made certain to shoot and kill many, many people. However, I would say that it is good that this has happened. The scales are definately off the eys of anyom=ne who may want to believe that America is at peace with itself. Even tonight, as I listen to congress say that violence is not welcome in its house...a country that is very willing to go into other countries with their bombs and guns, welcomed or not. But tonight I had no intention of writing about this. But when my own child calls me anxious about the world because of this, I must write.
