My mother was 17 when Hitler took her country. I was visiting her in 1973(?), when Nixon’s “war on drugs” got the no-knock warrants approved. She got this strange look on her face and got really quiet, then said “This is how it begins.”

It looks like we are now facing fighting against the end.

Danielle that is chilling. I remember reading about those warrants and thinking nothing of real meaning.

I was in a the Okefenokee Wildlife Refuge for four days and tried hard to push politics out of mind. Images of oil wells, bear cubs being shot and theme parks on public lands keep pushing their way into my brain.
