49er's Quarterback Colin Kaepernick

Colin Kaepernick has every right to make a protest but did he choose the right way?  He's seen and followed by many football viewers.  He has the opportunity to build bridges to make this a better country, but sadly, he chose the negative route.  Thumbing his nose at 'his' Country was not a good choice I feel.  He's young, well known and I hear, wealthy.  I am saddened by his choice.  Nobody should be killed on any street in this or any country.  Which brings me to the young and older men and women in the Armed Services who almost everyday are being killed in foreign streets, far away from home.  And whom are they doing this for?  All of us, including him.  Could he not stand and give honor to them for their selfless following of duty, risking their lives everyday for each and all who live in the free world?   There is honor and there is disrespect.  Choose thoughtfully and carefully Colin Kaepernick................................marge

Great Lakes oil disaster!

I sadly can't give you the needed information but please know this is deadly serious.  If Enbridge is allowed to continue to keep oil pipes in our Great Lakes, then there is  pending disaster!  A leak or break, will do irreparable harm.  They must hear from you by August 28, 2016.  All letters or emails sent are required to be read.  https://miwaters.deq.state.mi.us.  If you reach this, and see 'sight name', type in Enbridge.  Time is short!..........marge

Brains don't count

I just figured it out.  If Trump gets the votes of the brainy, highly intelligent people, its not because they're brainy and highly intelligent,  Its because they totally lack COMMON SENSE!  Yes.  Common sense.  The common sensers will save our country from those 'brainers'. Hang in there 'common sense' people and be sure to get out and vote! You're our saviors in disguise! Onward and upward common sensers!...........................marge

Destroying good kids

At a recent softball game in Decatur Illinois for grade school children, a 'dad' really blew it.  Apparently its his job to continually degrade and embarrass his young son.  He yelled to the child on the field, "catch it like a man!" and "I don't know why I waste my time coming here!"  I hope the mother, or someone,  wakes up and saves this child from an uncertain future as an adult.  What a shame.  What a shame. I hope a real adult steps in and saves this young man.................marge

Trump's latest promotion.

Trump's most recent promotion of a staff member is for one reason.  Kellyanne Conway has changed 'art' into a 'science' when it comes to monopolizing the floor and not allowing 'disagree-ers' the opportunity to challenge what she is saying.  Even the moderator seems incapable of  interrupting her.  she is 'good', or 'bad', depending on how you look at it, at keeping total control of the said floor.  Sometimes it's alright to interrupt an intentionally long winded speaker in the name of fairness..................marge

Summer Olympics. Lost its 'honor' this week. 2016

An honor to participate.  Dishonorable to use less than expected means to win.  That young lady won a 'dry' diving finish, but she didn't didn't win the 'running race' and it was a running race.  The other, 'real' runner, should receive a gold medal, not the 'diver'..................marge PS.  And now, a short while later. several male Olympians tried to cover  up their shameful behavior by lying to the Rio police and the world's news people.  I have always blindly believed that being an Olympian participate was an honor few ever knew.  The 'honor' now, seems to be disappearing...........................marge

So you want to be a Police Officer.

The way things are going, no young person with any sense would want to become a police officer.  But these young people are driven by their good hearts.  Police cars  and business (not to mention lives) are destroyed and why?  Because a person with a gun, pointing it at an officer wouldn't put it down after being told to do so.  This gives the officer every right to take the next step or lose his life.  These people who are threats to society, are now looked upon as the 'victims'.  What is SO wrong with this picture?....................marge

Double edged sword

I'm sure Marijuana does some good for some people but that must be weighed against the harm it can cause.  To calm and ease the pain of an individual is good.  On the other hand, What happens when you take it away from someone who uses it to calm themselves and soften their anger?  It seems everyone may be between an rock and a hard place with this dilemma.  Maybe we should let Drs. decide who gets it and for what purpose, not a storekeeper.  And we haven't even addressed those who indulge and then get behind the wheel of a car or something equally dangerous.............marge

Donald Trump? You've got to be kidding.

I don't know where to begin.  There are so many pieces of mouthy Trump floating around but that's only part of the problem.  Each day, each story he spouts is altered  a little.  What comes out, on a daily changing basis, is how he adjusts the statements to always make himself appear better.  How long before the intelligent people of the US will realize this.  I'm assuming you all have brains, but why aren't you using them?  These people would probably pay top dollar for swamp land if Trump told them to buy it.  Really.  I believe they would!  He's a biased prejudiced bully.  Not just against different nationalities but gender also.  Wake up you voters.  Take some deep breaths and let that brain out to really and reasonably work.  It won't hurt.  I promise.......................PS.  If the TV networks would stop putting his every word on camera (aka stop feeding him). perhaps he would implode or shrivel up and blow away............................marge
