Policing In Our Cities
It’s preposterous how some are crying out to defund police, and I’ll say why. Policing is the most important contact we have in our daily life that reminds us we’re a land of peace and order. We all know the use of force is meant only to keep us safe, and as Americans, we love…
Living in Los Angeles During 5/29/20 Protests
I live in a Los Angeles suburb. I don’t think that much about my city in the sense I like to brag about the weather, or put down any part of my community. Wasn’t born here, but lived most of my life here, except for 10 years in No California. People put Southern California down…

Italy …. A Virus & A Sell Out Combined?
People have referred to Italy as a kind of ‘marker’ in the battle against Covid 19.
