    Default Well done Officer Goodman!

    During the crazy events at the Capital last week there were those who showed presence of mind and courage to protect others. If anything positive came out of this event this was one of them and it is hearwarming to know that such integrity and courage and just plain good decision making are still appreciated and recognized in this country even across a partisan divide.

    Congratulations Officer Goodman on a job well done and you deserve this high honor. America is proud of you.

    What a hero!

    I hope they also do something about that stupid Colorado bint who tweeted out where Pelosi was or wasn't. And the staffers who gave little tours to the rioters before that day.

    ...and a woman who was directing people where to go with a megaphone.

    BTW, this has to be the most videoed secret assassination and coup attempt in history.

    I also want medals for the cops who got beaten and crushed, but chose NOT to shoot the SOB's....THAT TOOK COURAGE, that took more compasion and commitment to the motto "serve & protect" than I would have had.

    I saw the police officer who was famously filmed being beat by rioters one of who beat him with a flag pole flying the Stars and Stripes.

    In the interview he said he was helped by some of the rioters, who he appealed to that he was a father with kids. They assisted him in excaping. He then said “I would like to thank them for helping me but fuck you for being there.”.

    Good people have a lot more in common than some people want to give them credit for having. While it's always good to focus on the wrongs in society, it's always important to remember most people are like our families and friends; good people just striving for a better future.

    Yup. That’s why after those responsible for this attack on our Capital must be brought to justice surely and swiftly we need to focus on the underlying cause of the urban/rural divide, that is economic inequality, and take concrete measures to correct it.

    In addition we need to face the fact that we need to address the fact that vast number of Americans are unable or unwilling to adapt to economic, demographic and social changes which they have no hope of stopping.

    As should all criminals and those who seek to harm other Americans, regardless of their cause.

    Change is harder the older a person becomes. Maybe thinking smarter than working harder is worth a try.

    Justice and fair treatment is a right all Americans should expect from their government per the Constitution.

    Some asshole in Seattle, DC, Texas or anywhere else has no right to tell a different state or city what to do as long as everything complies with the Constitution. Making Federal special rules for special people always ends badly.

    People should be allowed to make choices for themselves, but they should also be held accountable for those choices.
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.
