(7,768 posts)In fact, just now listening to CSN&Y sing 'Ohio', I again felt the tightness of grief in my throat.
I was the drummer in a small band and this song was in one of our sets. Often I'd have tears down my cheeks when we sang this verse:
Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago
What if you knew her and
Found her dead on the ground?
How can you run when you know?

We're on the precipice now. We CAN'T be rounded up and herded over the cliff at gunpoint.

(675 posts)We're going to take our country back and the only people standing in our way will be the fascists tRump supporters.
They will be quickly defeated by the police and National Guard and the cherry on top will be that they are rounded up and ready to be put away. We can proceed to Tribunals for the trumpists in our government.
The good news is there will be a huge amount of property and businesses to split up between the poor and needy because the tRump supporters are going away for life.
