There was a peaceful “Rally Against Truth Decay” at 12:30 p.m. today on the Johnson County Courthouse lawn in downtown Warrensburg, Missouri. The temperature was in the 90s. There were about 75 individuals in attendance who listened to speakers, held protest signs (against the excesses of the Trump [r] Administration), and signed initiative petitions.
It’s been one hell of a week in America.

“…easier than hiding a family in your attic later.”
Speakers and organizers:
“Veteran…”
“Trans Rights = Human Rights”
“Land of the Oligarchs, Hate & Violence Has Replaced Our Constitution”
“Wake Up!”
“Do Not Oppress…”
“I know you are asking today, how long will it take?….
I come to say to you this afternoon, however difficult the moment, however frustrating the hour, it will not be long, because truth crushed to earth will rise again.
How long? Not long, because no lie can live forever.
How long? Not long, because you shall reap what you sow….
How long? Not long, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” – Dr. Martin Luther King, March 25, 1965.
