He attacks every bit of democracy he can, even thinking we don't know he is the one who pretended
we voted for the man currently calling himself Mayor of Detroit.
Most Michigan citizens think this governor will stop with Detroit. He won't. And now some of them
are growing more and more suspicious of his plans for them.
Snyder doesn't understand private people cannot 'own' either the poor, or their institutions. He was
backward enough to think he could sell art at the Detroit Institute of Art, as though none of it had
been privately endowed or insured, and its location made it ripe for exploitation.
Most referenda Michiganders have had to vote for of late has been worded in nothing but double-speak. What about the 'will' of the people? Well why should he believe in that?
He has destroyed most of our school system here in Detroit, but wants us to vote ourselves a gas tax
hike to benefit our roads and schools.
He stole all the revenue-sharing money due our schools already. Now why would we want him to do
that again?
He benefited greatly from what The Detroit Free Press did to our former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick.
Still, that hasn't been enough for him.
We may not have many friends, or his billions, but we Do Not Want His Backward Schools! We have no reason to fund his phony communist schemes; and I hope we won't fall for his nonsense
Tuesday.
Last November, he made sure he had us voting twice to kill wolves. Same nonsense, worded the tiniest bit differently, at two separate places on he ballot.
How is he getting away with this waste material?
Hardly a day after the vote, he had people hunting wolves on college campuses here- much to the distress of Michigan parents.
Michigan voters are so delighted to put someone in office who continues to destroy Detroit, they let this numbed one get away with a lot.
Somehow, I hope we have sense enough to escape his latest folly. He is so salivating for this gas tax that he has repeat callers and robo-callers calling homes, and sending flyers nearly every day!
He behaves as though he doesn't know there is already a perfectly good package in Washington for
improving our roads. Since it originated at the White House, it isn't blood-letting enough of ordinary
citizens for Republicans to pass it. It's been there, waiting, for years!
I am hoping Mother Michigan will not vote Snyder's way, and will not get away with a Bush-Gore-Scalia scam this week.

What's Poor Got T' Do With It?!?!?!
If we were a prosperous community, would we want you to have broken Freddie Gray's back?
Police persons haven't experienced a rash of officer killings in recent times.
Black police person's aren't killing disadvantaged young white men.
Police officers aren't killing meth lab workers in the trailer parks.
Police killings of young black men, according to researchers on The Melissa Harris Perry Show
Sunday, May 3, 2015, have outpaced the entire U.S. murder rate. Yes, that would include black
on black crime.
Our own officials need to grow up. They are not in Kindergarten any longer. This is not 1955. This
is 60 years hence, and we've lost Thurgood Marshall.
We don't want our young men lynched 'by any means necessary' to get them destroyed.
We want what police people want, to go HOME at the end of the day!
Thank you Marlyn Mosby for understanding us. You are the Autherine Lucy of civil protections.

Well, Maybe We Aren't Irish, But...
Dylan Thomas may not be your hero.
However, he was right when he told us, Do Not Go Gently Into That Good Night.
Freddie Gray wasn't supposed to go gently.
Mike Brown Jr. wasn't supposed to go gently.
We have so very many others who were not to have gone gently.
Thanks to their brothers and sisters in justice, they haven't had to go gently.
Police have no reason to threaten people simply because those people don't want to get off their
own streets.
These officials are silly enough to be possibly vindictive.

What Losers
I guess the Mayor in Baltimore and her poleessses have finally found a way to arrest peaceful citizens.
Citizens who "break curfew" are being arrested tonight, EST.
"Curfew". Is that like carrying a pocket knife?
Yes.
Yes it is.

How Do You Know The 'War On Drugs' Has Failed?
Has anyone in this last half century ever known of a person to stop using drugs because they
couldn't find the drug?
No.
No one has known of someone with that life experience.
All 'war on' drugs are regulalry available to those who seek them in America.

Police Thugs Make Trouble For Decent Officers
Citizens don't need to endure all these stupid arrests for all these 'dumb' laws.
After tuberculosis subsided, police had enough sense in decades past to stop arresting people for
spitting on the sidewalk.
Maybe police departments should grow up.

To Our Leaders: Finally Something About Which To Be Peaceful
I hope our leaders aren't purposefully misleading.
Malcolm X was not a proponent of non-violent response in the face of violent aggressions.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was about to meet with Malcolm when he, Dr. King, was assassinated.
Nelson Mandela didn't espouse non-violence until he was released from jail to be come his country's
leader.
We had to adopt non-violence because we were only eleven of every one hundred whites.
We don't feel the love and kisses some might suggest for murderous badges.
We know there are reasons to practice non-violence; but some of us are Not going down without a fight.
Preachers are preaching to the choir, because those who feel aggressive are not going to be "counseled" into mild protest.
Much of the black middle class lives in The Garden Of The Finzi-Continis. Doesn't sound like a Jewish name? That's what the Continis thought.
Many of the black middle class of mixed-race heritage don't even realize they are black.
So those of us who respect the lives of Freddie Grays don't have time for the comparison of the civil
rights' crises of yesteryear to that of today when we have the right to benefit from our social media.
Baltimore dropped the ball in front of millions of people.
Not all those people are "thuggish ruggish". The young men we are losing are UNARMED.
