It’s time to find your faith, it’s time find your cause.
Remember that we’ve fought bullies before, ones that unfairly taxed us, and ones that unfairly treated us and persevered against all odds. We’ve succeeded in taking down an egotistical psychopath that was dead set on dehumanizing certain groups of people. (I hope we can do that again.)
Through the stock market crash the housing crash and the reorganizations of companies. We’ve persevered. I’m not worried about the survival of America, I’m not even worried about American’s thriving, because we’re better than this. This is not say that I don’t think we got EXACTLY what we deserve. This last year has opened my eyes to the blind hate in people’s hearts, the prejudice, the senseless acts of violence.
Stand up American, no more sitting back, liking something on Facebook, discussing it in our hipster coffee shops or hometown diners. We need to find our personal responsibility. We did this America, and we’re going to keep our heads high in this next 4 years to make sure that Donald J Trump doesn’t get away with putting a toxic mix of fear and hatred in the hearts of our society.
In one minute over 70 women experience rape or sexual violence. Yesterday there were two Des Moines officers that were buried because a bigot shot them for no reason, or possibly for kicking him out of a football game for waving a confederate flag. Do you know what these crimes have in common? That the perpetrators think they have a RIGHT to do them. They don’t care about other people, what they care about is themselves, they think they are bigger than society, the government, and the law.
To the trump supporters in the room, I know you voted this monster because you see him as a way OUT of the big banks, and the “handouts”. But I feel you were blinded by your personal agenda (weather that was gun laws, taxations or some other policy) and forgot to ask yourself what impact this would have on the future. On your children, on your daughters, on you LGBTQ friends, on the environment, and ultimately, YOU. This will impact you negatively. Trump cares about ONE person, and that’s himself.
It’s time to fly high my fellow Americans. We’re going to have to put personal responsibly with every iota of our being. Recycle, give charitably to organizations you research, teach your sons like you would your daughters and your daughters like you would your sons. This is our time to go above the fray, we are better than this scumbag and his deplorable messages. Be kind, work hard, and never forget to ask yourself hard questions.
