So many dreadful things happened this year that one forgets easily from day to day. But foremost at this writing is the problem that the law has been having in many parts of the USA. The police are being accused of excessive force but two grand juries found that the police were only doing their jobs in defending the community against crime.
Because two of these antisocial victims happen to be black, and both were killed by a police officer or group of police officers, the entire country has been subjected to long tedious protests by organized civil rights leaders.
It has gone so far that a Smith College President was forced to apologize for saying all lives matter when the black community took umbrage at all as being too inclusive when the emphasis is supposed to be upon ONLY black lives.
As a result of all this hysteria and unfortunate misunderstanding of the purpose of the law, two NY city policemen were killed in execution style by an irrational vengeful miscreant who later shot himself when surrounded by the police who had him trapped. In Florida, another police officer was also shot and according to headlines, run over, apparently in response to all this anti cop hatred.
So at the present time, people are aghast at the lawlessness which is being practiced across the land.
In addition to this looney tunes protestations which are ruining life for shoppers in malls where people line the hallways with protesters, for stopping traffic in major cities, and for promising future continuation of this organized protestation about whose lives matter, black people, or policemen, there is a furor over a movie that was to be released on Christmas Day, lampooning North Korean President Kim Jung Un and the CIA.
Hackers have interrupted Sony Studio which has caused Barack Obama and the FBI to conclude that North Korea is behind the plot to disrupt life in movieland. It is only a movie is the theme of most protests about a film that shows how the President of North Korea is killed by a CIA plot.
North Korea is protesting its innocence but is also threatening not only the Pentagon, the mainland USA, the cesspool of terrorism, but has offered to help the USA to find who it is that has really hacked into Sony Studios. North Korea claims that it has been framed.
All this is happening now...the end of the year but most of this has dragged out since summer.
The worst weather conditions in history have been long forgotten by this time since all that matters now is what will stop this senseless shooting of police officers who are only doing their job. Nobody ever likes the policeman who catches anyone in committing a crime. Except the person who was the victim of the crime!
My personal opinion on this is that the protestors made more enemies than friends for interrupting holiday shopping, traffic, and for physically assaulting people who defended the police, our guardians of peace.
A little tongue in cheek in that last statement! The hackers are calling themselves the guardians of peace. ( A little note to myself since I forget so quickly.)
