"This Isn't Dallas! It's Nashville! They Can't Do That To Us, Here In Nashville!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


                             Remember those apocryphal lines Henry Gibson spoke at the climax of Robert Altman's 1975 masterwork, which will turn 50 next year?



                                I could not help but hear them flash through my head, as I witnessed on TV the attempted assassination of former President Trump, an event, I fear that puts us dangerously closer to civil war than ever before.  Heaven help us if he had been killed!



                                 Hey, I don't like the guy. But that does not mean he should be shot, or such actions permitted.  Where was the security?  Or, more to the point, where wasn't it?  Was this all planned?  And right before the RNC???????????????



                                   I am not surprised someone took a shot at Trump.  I am surprised it took this long. But it does not bode well for the next several months, which will bring panic, chaos and outrage.



                                      A gag order, duct tape, and encampment at Mar-a-Lago is all that is needed.



                                    Violence only begets violence, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  1. Scary times in which we live. I am just happy to be living seaside now, after downsizing and away from city and suburbs now.

  2. Agnes,
    After living in MYC over 40 years, I am questioning how much longer I should be here. Thank you for sharing.
