Wow! Time flies. I have failed to document my:
- Door-to-door surveys conducted January and February of 2020 just prior to the stay-at-home orders due to COVID to learn people’s thoughts on DJT
- Door-to-door outreach of homeowners with Trump yard signs prior to the election (i.e. encourage them to take them down, which a couple did)
- Door-to-door outreach of homeowners with Trump banners, flags, etc… post the January 6, 2021 insurrection (i.e. encourage them to take them down, which a couple did) and
- Daily messages to my two Republican Senators, which I initiated in the Fall of 2020.
In reference to the latter, the following is the message I left today.
Remove your knee from the neck of America [in a slow deep voice]
GOP remove your knee from the neck of America! [A little louder]
This week we learned from the trial of Derek Chauvin that many bystanders pleaded with Derek Chauvin to remove his knee from George Floyd’s neck.
Your unwillingness to confront irresponsible gun use has led to tragic deaths; we now have 3 mass killings in a span of 3 weeks. Just this week a mother sought to protect her son, yet he died in her arms. She will carry this horror the rest of her life, which will be a living hell. [I paused at the beginning, used my voice to emphasis the 3 mass killings & strung out "living hell" because it is hell for the survivors, is it not?]
We have pleaded for you to help stop the senseless killings. You are against abortion. Why are you not against post-birth-abortion? In this case, 4000 days later. When you seek to allow people to obtain a gun without any requirements --such as being responsible and ensuring they will respect other’s unalienable right to life, are you not giving them the instrument to perform to what amounts to, a post-birth-abortion? [A little crazy on the concept, but I have a little over a minute to make a point that I hope will stick in their brain]
Remove your knee from the neck of America.[in a slow deep voice]
I encourage you to use with your GOP elected representatives wherever they may hold office.
