It's been going on since the founding fathers signed the eclaration eclaration of independence. They were all landowners and some even had slaves. The Constitution was written not for equality or the redistribution of wealth but for the rich, landowners to keep it and keep everyone else away from it.

It's become more obvious now as wealth has grown so incremently with the top 3% having more than some countries and are now at the point of untouchable, able to control so much of what's happening should be no surprise.

Europe did it when first colonialized the New World, claiming Manifest Destiny taking land, wiping out civilizations of people all under the name of god.

It's generational with the belief to not trust the government. They're trying to take it from you.

While one side tells you they're trying to take it from you, the other side is telling you, they're trying to take it from you.

The problem is, they are.

I wish I could say that good judgement will eventually win out. The only way that to happen is if Tuberville is out of the picture. For him it's not about his beliefs. He doesn't have any. It's all about the attention he's getting and the power he's wielding.

He's a very small human. Don't forget he was a football coach and just about every football coach has the old Vince Lombardi mantra drilled in their heads, "Winning isn't everything. It's the only thing". It's all about winning. Decency doesn't matter.

That reminds me of another time I was making chilli and came up with a great idea of getting frisky with my wife. Needless to say, it killed the mood.

 

I was finishing a jar of extremely hot peppers (7 pot primos) that I had fermenting on Thanksgiving day. I made a hot sauce with them and cantaloupe. I had them in a pan at a low simmer to meld the flavors. The problem was the steam coming off was potent as hell. It filled the house when everyone was arriving and coughing from the hot sauce in the air, me included. We had to open all the windows, dig out the fans to get it out of the house, freezing everyone in the process.
