I agree completely. The only miniscule speck of anything "positive" that I can see about what is happening now is that it has firmly convinced me that I can no longer sit around on my backside of self-interest with my head half buried in a bucket of sand. I am ashamed on how passive I have become and how it takes a calamity of this magnitude to awaken me. But now that it has happened I will never fall asleep again, I trust that you, and hopefully millions of other citizens, are all in about the same place.

Good points all. And many of us are.
Good for you. I have always been awake regarding the left in this country but like you somewhat disconnected. Although I have attended public demonstrations in the past, etc. NO MORE. I am going to fight this with every tool I have at my disposal. Money (not a lot but whatever I can spare) vote, demonstrations, etc. QUIET NO MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
