The picture was of a body lying on the ground dressed, wearing a brown winter coat, head obscured with their hands tied behind their back could have been male or female except for the blue painted fingernails that caught my eye. Dead bodies crumpled up on the ground somehow look smaller to me. All that their life was is gone. Their dreams, hopes and aspirations gone.
The images being sent from Ukraine of the atrocities that Russians have committed are horrific. We’re only seeing a fraction of the horror that has been visited upon the Ukrainian people. Murdering. Torturing. Pillaging. Looting. Raping. Using civilians as shields. Killing people at point blank range.
What kind of human shoots an innocent person riding down the street on a bicycle? From the visuals coming out of Ukraine that’s a popular sport. That and running over people with tanks. Maiming people is also popular. What kind of humans do such things?
Putin’s Russian soldiers.
Dark Path?
A human that kills innocents without qualms or remorse. Some cultures more than others encourage this kind of brutality and thuggery throughout their society. Those that engage with it are rewarded and exalted. Their dark natures are emboldened. Their leader rules with fear.
Remember when Trump stood up for Putin? It was after Bill O’Reilly said that Putin was a killer during his interview with Trump. Here’s what Trump said, “There are a lot of killers. What Do You Think? Our Country's So Innocent?” Trump is saying that we are the kind of people that would do what Putin’s Rashists (Russian fascists) are doing in Ukraine. Trump’s followers agreed with him and praised him in their comments. Shooting people is funny to them.
Remember when Trump praised Putin for invading Ukraine? Sure you do. It was at the same time that Trump said that we should do on our southern border what Putin did and is doing in Ukraine. In Texas the Trump Party wants immigrants on our southern border to be declared invaders and that an invasion is taking place.
It’s about time that people stop entertaining the idea that Trump is joking about wanting to be President for life. He staged a coup. His followers violently stormed our nation’s Capitol in order to try and keep him in power. The majority of the Republican Trump Party went along with the failed attempt. It’s little wonder that they don’t want the coup attempt investigated. They were a part of it!
The upcoming election is really about what dark path they will lead us down when there is no one to stand in their way and the society that they will impose on non-believers. They aren’t kidding when they talk about firing squads and shooting people.
It isn’t just talk.
