Three & A Half Minutes

 

Here is a prime example of what is wrong with society …

On the news this evening they spent three minutes and thirty seconds reporting on the triple broad daylight shooting in the North York suburb.

Three and a half minutes!

THEN …

The same news show spent ten minutes reporting on the “possibility” of the LCBO Liquor Store workers going on strike.

Not being “on strike“, just a possibility.

Ten Minutes!

Meanwhile …

There are families crying as they were informed that three of their loved ones have become victims of gun violence.

Not just victims,  deceased victims.

Hopefully …

The LCBO workers do not go on strike before these poor, distraught families and their friends have enough time to buy alcoholic beverages to numb their pain.

Come on People!

Don’t you think it is high time we start to get our priorities straight?

Are we living in such a cold, self centered world that alcohol is more news worthy than the victims of gun violence?

As a society we need to take a huge step backwards and look at the world we have created.

There are far more important things to deal with than assuring that you will be able to rush to get a drink whenever life gives you a shot of reality.

It is no wonder that we have three generations of kids raising kids, disposable marriages, gender confusion, welfare as a career choice, mass homelessness, the majority of people whining from sun up till sun down and – worse of all – it has become almost impossible to find and purchase “real” black licorice!

Court still prohibits marijuana possession

Court still prohibits marijuana possession Shannon Kari, National Post Published: Thursday, December 11, 2008 The prohibition against simple possession of marijuana has been upheld by an Ontario Superior Court judge, in a closely watched case that stemmed from the prosecution of Clifford Long, who was arrested by Toronto police with $40 worth of cannabis. Justice Eva Frank overturned a decision by a lower court judge last year that found there was no valid restriction against possession of cannabis because of flaws with the country's medical marijuana regulations. The lower court decision led to confusion about prosecuting simple possession cases in Ontario, said the federal government in its arguments before Judge Frank earlier this year. The federal Crown argued that the present policies of Health Canada have resulted in enough marijuana for the nearly 2,000 people with medical certificates to possess the drug. Judge Frank agreed with the arguments made by federal government lawy...

LIVE IN THE NOW. FOR NOW

  “ Look up into the Universe and show your perception of your God that you are grateful and humbled for this gift of existence, of life it very self. “ Remember, we are merely mortal and our existence is an ever changing blueprint of the pathway we choose to walk at this moment of our lives. We will face many choices and we walk many pathways   as we wander through this road we call “ life “. “ We are genetically spiritually nomadic. “ Forever seeking the “ why “, “ where ” and “when”, often neglecting the “ here “, “ now ” and “ why not “ The past has left us. The future is yet to arrive. In reality, we live right now. Enjoy the  “now”. Think fondly about the past. Have positive hope for tomorrow. And ……….. “ LIVE ” in the now Before it fades I nto the past. (LDV 06/29/2025) “Positivity is Cancer’s nemesis.”

Hey America, Sorry To Say, But …….

  I have been told that 1 percent of the American people are running the asylum formerly known as “ The United States of America “. So, what are the other 99 percent doing? A few lame protests? You all remained silent even when both Trump and Musk openly admitted to rigging the electoral computers in Pennsylvania. You all allowed the fascist rapist to STEAL the Presidency from Harris.  You have stood by and allowed your newly appointed Dictator to commit crime after crime.  I remember a time when the American people actually stood up for their CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS. Protests accomplish nothing and only fuel the nutjob’s ego. Now look at the mess you have created!!! Every member of Trump’s administration  is corrupt and and should be arrested and JAILED! He purposely has put incompetent people in charge of key positions across all government departments and programs to create multiple chaotic disarray and confusion. No Dictator in history has ever given up their power...
