WW2 vets sacrificed so we can live in a safe democracy……but we don’t. The rich buy islands, build bunkers, and erect extreme security defenses. The average American is gunned down in the streets by federal thugs while kids live in fear of being massacred at school. The focus of our government’s priorities needs to change…..NOW!

Peace ☮️

It was a horror.....yet not even close to the horror of Sandy Hook - or any one of dozens of others you could name.

(this doesn't seem to be common knowledge, but seeing that Omaha was more like an abattoir than a military operation, Ike considered sounding retreat. What a disaster that would have been)

I'm so sorry her kindergarten experience will include practice for hiding from men with guns.
