These folks are talking tough about forming militias if they don’t get their way, so what do we do to fight this?

During the Sixties and Seventies, the right-wing slogan was “law and order” and “support you local police.” But it was THEIR law and THEIR order they wanted, not protection from crime; and they only support law enforcement if it was THEIR law they enforced. We can’t be intimidated, we must resist the slide to fascism. We must stand up for our rights against these bullies and thugs.

We are now in the month of Elul, the month before Rosh Ha-Shona, the Jewish New year. this is the traditional time for reflection on the past year, and how we can refine our lives even better.

As part of Rosh Ha-Shona, I have my Rosh Ha-Shona resolutions, compatible is those for New Year’s, my birthday, and Pesach:

I will continue to conduct myself with self-love,self-esteem,and self-respect, rejecting negativity in my mind and my life-I deserve better.

I will continue my art and business as a writer, attending writer’s gatherings, classes, conferences, etc.

I will continue to be loyal to Jewish traditions, religion, culture, etc.

I will continue to look up various educational venues-classes, galleries, museums, libraries, lectures, etc.

I will continue to improve my social skills.

Here is the story of the Pew family, who started the kind of big-money right-wing politics dominating our country now.
