MONDAY MUSING: WHAT THE 'H' IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?

MONDAY MUSING this week is about plain 'ole haters. And the reason I refer to them as 'ole is because they have been around a long, long time... 

The difference is these emboldened people have come out in force to spew their hatred. As a nation we witnessed their symbols and heard their chants  as they took over our country's capitol. Do you think the writers of the constitution intended for the right of Freedom of Speech to be "vicious" language?  

As if that wasn't enough, the hatred once again came into our living room yesterday while a community member was commemorating the loss of her spouse on a memorial Zoom, our screen was plagued by racist words in the chat box, anti-semitic symbols scrawled on the page and even music blasting with hateful lyrics. 

Can you imagine how the mourning family and friends felt having to experience such an invasion? The irony is the deceased was neither Black nor Jewish, but Catholic with an Irish surname. As a college professor he was known for his concern for all his students and humanitarian efforts. 

Let me borrow the question posed by President Biden  regarding those not wearing masks as it fits for this act of hatred too "What the hell is wrong with you people?"

 Gee, I'd really like to know that answer too.
