I Blame The Media For The Unrest In My Country

I have been very quiet with my blogging but this last assassination of two NYPD police officers and pot shots at Police across the country is very disturbing to me and should be to you.

The media in my option is fueling the unrest and wackos  watching TV all day at home are taking action on those who protect and serve our community. What a waste of resources we have paid on protests for folks that did not comply with Police requests .

I have no problem with demonstrating but in my option the media twisted these stories and didn't get the facts right as the Grand Jury found out in the Brown case. Now we have divide between the races again.

I lived with and saw the heinous news feeds  during the 60's and the busing in Boston . We are going backwards not forward.  I know it is a small minority of troublemakers that are making the news but Media is all over them .

What can we do to stop this nonsense? I don't have the answer  on how we can bring us all together  as one...Americans. To be honest I'm a little worried but hope this to shall pass.

So Many Good and Loving People ...

I am glad to post again as I haven't done so in a while because between work and family and life. The last few months I have been attending a meeting once a week with what I will call angels on earth. I am very moved every time I am with these folks.

We  have been meeting for the Salvation Army Radiothorn which happened last weekend , Today we learned the final total was 126.000 dollars and money is still coming in.  I am so proud to live in a community that opens their hearts in such a way.

As Tom Bomil said this morning to hear Mothers and Fathers swallow their pride and ask for the basic things like food , help with heating bills , rent and toys for the kids for Christmas just pulls at your heart and no one is turned away .

This all happens because of you . the good and loving people of the Merrimack Valley . I wish and hope all of you have that warm and fussy feeling I have about how good and loving people can be.

Looking at the news every night it's seems the world is out of control and evil but in our little part of it . It's a good place to Live .....Merry Christmas  and Happy New Year.
