Enough! Soul of the Nation

The time has come to put a stop to so much madness in America.

America has found itself divided to a point where it looks like no return but life is not that finite. Everything and everyone changes at some point in life due to self or external circumstances.

Watching the news has been very stressful from mass shootings, Covid, cop killings, the Russian War, the rise of white supremacy and white nationalist groups, the insurrection, a former president recking havoc with lots of untruth around the country, Democracy threatened, GOP unethical, systemic racism, sexual abuse at churches, churches immersed in politics and this list is endless.

The country needs some good news from somewhere, anywhere will suffice. Too much bad news in the long term destroys one’s mental state of being moral and critical thinking.

During the most recent devastating mass shooting at Abbott Elementary school and the victims and their families demanded that President Biden do something and he advised he would. It does take more than empathy to heal the wounds of America. The wounds are so deep that a miracle will barely suffice.

Recently President Biden signed an executive order for federal reform of policing which was triggered by the death of George Floyd in such a senseless manner under the knee of former officer Derek Chauvin who squeezed the last breath from George Floyd’s body. The signing of this executive order will not bring back Mr. Floyd, but moving forward hopefully will prevent more deaths similar to George’s Floyd. Signing this executive order was a major step in a positive direction to govern and/or prevent the use of force and misconduct.

Marking the second anniversary of George Floyd’s murder by former officer Chauvin, President Biden signed this executive order for reforming policing at the federal level. This major step forward was overshadowed by the Uvalde, Texas mass shooting at Robb Elementary school.

In the meantime, America awaits more gun control laws as the GOP and the Democrats are eons apart on what needs to be done to curb mass shootings around the country. The GOP is all about their power and support of the NRA and the Democrats are focused on the people and their safety from gun violence.

Biden’s executive order will be instrumental in all federal agencies revising their use-of-force policies, misbehaved and fired officers for misconduct names will be put in a national registry, and grants are awarded to incentivize state and local police departments to strengthen chokeholds and no-knock warrants. Also, there will be a restriction on the future transfer of most military equipment to law enforcement agencies and voids the use of deadly force when a person is a threat to themself and not others.

While President Biden signed this executive order, the country is yet waiting for Congress to come up with more laws governing the use of automatic rifles and who can purchase them per a background check and age limitations.

The Democrats are in discussion with a few Republicans. The majority of GOP who have pledged their undying loyalty to Donald Trump are incapable of making a single decision on their own regardless of their education and experience but await guidance from a person who is incapable of making any decision aside from his personal gains. Nevertheless, The GOP sold its soul to the devil and now the cost to buy themselves back is too costly therefore they will remain at the foot of Trump.

In conclusion, a threat to Democracy anywhere is a threat to Democracy everywhere was well communicated by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Democracy is under attack and started with Trump hoping to steal the presidential election from Biden but the people spoke with their votes. The time to vote with conscience, integrity, and truth is now. Politicians work for the public and must do their job or leave the position. If they can’t do the job, then they need to go. The soul of the nation is in danger of insurrectionists from the White House to the back house. Vote them out!
