Earlier this week, the FBI arrested two men and charged them with attacking U.S. Capitol Police officer Brian D. Sicknick with an unknown chemical spray during the Jan. 6 riots. Charging papers allege that one of the men said to the other, “Give me that bear sh--,” before later spraying a substance into Sicknick’s face. Sicknick died Jan. 7. Capitol police have said Sicknick “was injured while physically engaging with protesters.” A cause of death has not been determined. (Washington Post)
My Aunt Meercy was a working single woman in the 1950s. She, of course, like too many females at the time had a limited choice of employment, and no matter her intelligence, or talent, basically could have been a teacher, a nurse, or a secretary; since she was not a housewife! My Aunt Meercy was a very smart lady, smart enough to understand how men needed to believe they were the dominant gender, and by listening, and applying their tricks of the trade, right back at them, my Aunt Meercy became quite a player to reckon with in the world of business. “Foolishness is a folly for the feeble,” she would say. Stupid becomes the soup of the day, and the more the dumb drink it, the more they become accustomed to its taste and eventually taste nothing; BUT they continue to drink it and the monotony of meaninglessness is all they recognize. Being the one nephew she adored she would spend time with me, woman ‘splaining men; informing me that when I become in the position to make choices, I should always position myself to have enough choices to make.
I read with great worry, how choices are being made, mostly by men, and how so many women seem to want to follow in the footsteps of these insecure jerks, who, are truly stuck within their soup of the day, and are content with never being content. It is now bear shit, abuse a fellow human with bear shit, as if doing so can or will make more of a man of you as if there is more to be made of you when all you can conjure up is attacking the sane with insanity. I worry because it seems that the foolishness of the feeble is becoming domination by the dumb. And the question ever since Trump has been how low are we going!
