IS EVERYONE ELSE ALRIGHT?

If you are on Facebook, I'm sure you have seen the increasing political rancor as the so-called election for president draws near. It basically boils down to "your candidate is a lying scumbag, whilst my candidate would never lie or be a scumbag at all"! Disingenuous to be sure. Well, I just couldn't take it anymore and decided not to comment on Facebook again until after you cast your corporate vote for the one or the other corporate candidate who will kill men, women and children with impunity.


Because there was a man who finally, finally, by god, figured out it was more than about him and he was brutally murdered. But, not before he asked the eternal question we may have the guts to ask as we are mortally wounded, "Is everyone else alright?" If you can reach deep, deep within your own heart to believe that you can, too, utter such mortal words, than maybe, perhaps, just maybe, you will vote this election for someone who epitomizes such wonder as he lay dying for the concern of others. But, alas, you will not, as you still believe in the corporate two party system. I grieve for him and so many others assassinated for disregarding or challenging such a system as I do for you. I weep tonight for you as you gleefully rip apart the Republican or Democrat for which you hold so dear. But, please, "IS EVERYONE ELSE ALRIGHT?"...
