Lean Forward.

If a victim doesn't ask for remedies to blatant abuses, the methods that led to that abuse just becomes part of recurring pattern.

I suggest we come up with a suitable country song to make our case.

I'm not saying that to be contrary - it's really just the truth.

Every generation has had to face the unknown, including my Dad and his buddies who went to fight in World War II. My friends and classmates who fought in Vietnam, and the youngsters today who are fighting in the Middle East. It's not all about war either, I'm just making the point that the unknown is never easy. But that won't change. We owe it to past and future generations to do our share, now.

I, for one, am trying to invent a time machine so that I can go back to 2016 and slap a few people.

I know it is a long shot but no worse than some of the "solutions" I have seen.

It is the part I am having trouble with.

I will gladly take care of the slapping.
