(#6034) The audacity of putin and trump!

      The very idea of punishing a perpetrator of harm to instead rewarding them is something I would expect of putin and trump since neither of them is a proper human being. They are more like the Cro magnons of our earlier human evolution. The stark difference in their approach to reality is one of dominion instead of shared values. They both are the worst of what humanity still is and for them to be in positions of power is the fault of all the rest of us. As the rest of us continue to live under the rule of law these two decrepit souls consider themselves beyond it.
     To the point that they have in place others who are willing to disrupt the rule of law to keep them out of any just consequence. I think that we the people here in America need to understand that playing nice with monsters is a failed strategy and will only increase our misery factor. Instead we need to play by their rules and temporarily disregard our honor to being civil when barbarism is our only real choice. I know in my soul I have already reconciled my own behavior toward solutions that are beyond typical rule of law expectations. I think all of us need to prepare ourselves for the chaos that is a remedy.
     Wherever tyranny comes into being we need to know that our rule of laws cannot be moderated. The end of tyranny should always come about when justice and fairness are properly adjudicated. When adjudication is circumvented then an anger needs to swell within all the rest of us to apply extrajudicial remedies that conquer and reverse the tyrannical oppression. To keep our democracy we must fight for it when the fighting time comes. That requires us to draw on our previously controlled animal tendencies the courage to be vigilant in our focus to act with a survival instinct that holds no bounds when our precious democracy is threatened.
