As a mom, all I want is to enjoy the life, liberty and pursuit of happiness that I was guaranteed. This should not be dependant on political stats, numbers, self interests and reelections. There are very few polititions left who possess character, compassion and veracity. Folks with those qualities are simply not suited for the job. Picture Mother Theresa selling used cars. Poor thing would be raked over the coals. A government filled with polititions by any other name would smell as immoral. When did we start living in fear and how do I explain this to my children? The people in the justice system don't want the truth, they want a win - justice at any price to meet a quota to prove they are worthy of reelection. Just one human life slipping through the cracks for their own benefit is one person too many if you ask me. But what do I know. My voice is small and my power is insignificant. My hope is that the fear they have instilled in our children will motivate the next generation to put an end to the system we now must serve. Manipulating the truth is still a lie. Death in an unnecessary battle is still murder. Government intruding in our personal lives without permission is still, well, just plain fucked up. When I was a little girl I wished I had a big brother. Someone to look after me. I'm not a little girl anymore. I'm a Mom. And if I had your power my dear government, I would put you all in time out until you learn to play nice. Then, I'd ground you from all of your electronics. So I could make private phone calls. Probably to your moms. Then, and only then could I finally enjoy that guaranteed pursuit of happiness, with liberty and justice for the little sisters.
