    The new age of the Wild West. Law and retribution is the hands of whoever makes it up.

      Takes it up. Whoever takes it up. Justice in the next life, in this one there is only the law , and all men are equal before the law. Because Colt Firearms made them equal. Hammurabi in his grave is rising. Not to judge who is right, but who is left. So many lives broken by a broken straw of pressure on a sliver of metal pulled by an ignorant finger that should know better than to pull when someone is running away. We can’t sprinkle crack, drop a throwaway, and call it a day. Not now, not ever really, not any more.

      We want peace. Piece by piece. Our land slips the dogs again. We say be aware. They say beware. We say be wary. They beg for war.
