So many things are giving me hope of late....

But this article about New Yorkers who removed the nazi graffiti from every advertisement's glass

on their subway car really lifted me this morning. The haters think it is okay now to espouse their shit and we have to just say NO!

Gregory Locke, the author of the post, describes how he, along with other commuters found every advertisement on every window of the Manhattan 1-train vandalized with Nazi Swastika insignia, after he boarded the train Saturday night.

“The train was silent as everyone stared at each other, uncomfortable and unsure what to do,” he wrote in the post. “One guy got up and said, ‘Hand sanitizer gets rid of sharpie. We need alcohol,’” Locke added.


Here is the link to the Raw Story Article.

remember, only about 20% of Trump supporters are the enthusiastic stupid deplorable crowd. Another 20% are the stupid but got conned crowd. That leaves the rest of us, who won't put up with lies and bullshit and hate-mongering. Never ever forget that the real enemy of the people are the corrupt unfettered corporate capitalists and fossil fuel industry. They have no morals and will buy anybody, Rep, Dem, Ind, T-party. Anyone is fair game to get offered their dirty bribes.

Blacks,Native Americans,Hispanics,Asians,Arabs,Jews,LGBQ,Muslims they keep telling everyone to go back to their own country,do they realize they didn't come from here how can they believe this shit. They seem to think they are back in the 60's.

Some have just begun to realize this country is no just black and white everyone is mixed how will they determine who leaves?
