Non-Violent, Direct Action

January 13, 2018 / David Valade / Leave a comment

"The only man who makes no mistakes is the man who never does anything." - Theodore Roosevelt I'm tired of writing.  I need to do more.  I have an idea, ideas.  But I may cross a line.  Non-violence is the key.  Yet it qualifies as direct action.  Some of you who read me know what … Continue reading Non-Violent, Direct Action

Angry

January 12, 2018 / David Valade / Leave a comment

I've said it before.  I'm an angry white man.  Apparently that, well, the stereotype says I'm a Trump supporter.  Yeah.  And apparently there are shithole countries.  Just ask the #POTUS. So, pissed off.  Wicked (had to prove I'm from Boston). Let's start with a story.  I knew someone in college, he was a friend.  He … Continue reading Angry

A Lawful Order

January 2, 2018 / David Valade / Leave a comment

We have a professional military.  Their duty, their sworn allegiance is to the United States of America, to the Constitution of the United States.   Look at the official site of those who choose to defend our country.  Their sworn oath is not … Continue reading A Lawful Order

104 Days, 45%

January 2, 2018January 3, 2018 / David Valade / 1 Comment

It's been 104 days since Maria hit Puerto Rico.  45% of the island still has no power.  An acquaintance tells me her family won't get power back until at least April.  Where is the outrage?  Does no one care?  Imagine the anger if Houston were still in the dark.  There would be an outpouring of … Continue reading 104 Days, 45%
