July 4th: We need to free our politician's minds from far right and left radicalism

There are many of 
 us who sacrificed.
This country belongs to us all!

You have heard me rail against far right extremism and I would guess far left also deserves some criticism. Read Extremism Left 

Let me first be kind of clear on my beliefs. I'm a light right Republican who values freedom of religion and freedom of speech. Likewise,  I have lots of liberal friends and often bridge the gap in values and beliefs.

I'm a loyalist to our Constitution and have said that way way before our January 6th hindsight change of heart (We will have to wait to see what happens with that.). I even encouraged our leadership to work with each other but was responded by some with plugged ears and self interest. 

That being said, I have a Muslim sounding name and mixed race kids and somewhat of a second class citizen. I thought about going into politics but realized quickly that unless I repeat things exactly as they are said and in the way they are said I would be rejected ( Kind of why we have the problems we do now. I tested my political "worthiness". At least through traditional lines at that time and space. That does not detract from the wonderful and thoughtful politicians I have met.).

I have friends that are far right and far left; they wont hang out with each other!

To add to that I have been targeted by an ex sports hate group because someone wanted something and spread some rumors to use well worn paths of bullying others (Its no longer bullying when your an adult.). They of course acted and got a few close friends in law enforcement to target "the Muslim" in their community.  Good judgment has so far prevailed but for how long until someone crosses the line is an open question (Fyi that is not against the many good officers I have developed positive relationships with. Just those who support those illegal and dark behaviors that are against the nature of protect and serve interests of society. My door is always open to apologize and changes of course. Unfortunately, they aren't allow to be nice to me because they might get in trouble from their "leadership". You can kind of see the immaturity of it all. 🤷 That will require the perpetrators to receive mental health services and an audit to clear the air.). Of course they have not gotten off their robo path either so we will likely see another crash someday. 

I'm also a person who engaged In science in one form or another as far back as I remember and came to some profound discoveries I haven't been able to finish and in some cases truly put into exact words. Some have already been known, published and discussed but weren't really important until their time came. I am mostly in the ball park on my hypothesis and outcomes of model prediction. 

Here what I have to say about the desecration of churches, fire bombing clinics, and threatening justice's and officials. You are no better than the people who sacked our capital. There are lines that if the mob mentality crosses them they cant go back and will permanently damage our republic in a way it will limp for decades. It makes no difference your values or political arguments. We have a process for dealing with such disagreements but stepping outside and using violence leads to other reactive issues (likely why they are doing it...to provoke.  Something in have seen other extremists try to do to encourage conflict. They are likely pawns to someone else's agenda.)

Now I encourage our politicians to start to think about what is more important...their egos, party, or nation? There is some movement toward central and rational views but as of present that is a political nomads land with few short term reelection benefits. ...and the mouthpieces rush out to support their favorite ignorance of the times. All have answers and few are asking the right questions. So We The People should be skeptical and critical thinkers if there are people on both sides of the political perspective who can't.

Of course....my comments have long been discounted before they have even been thought. The problem of not being in the "connected" class where some feel they have the right to decide things without considering the "non connected" class. Kind of why I like to say "Keep it "classy" America!" just because it has multiple meanings  (Sorry. 😏). July 4th is a time to respect the many who have served and died for our freedoms.  Don't throw our values in the burn pit because someone in your party, group or club told you too. Work together and resolve your differences. Duh! 😲 💨
