Current events, crushed.

It's a deep, dark abyss in this mind. The pressures at these depths compress normal thought into rock candy for the grotesque creatures I call Ideas. 

Thoughtful commenters welcome; all others go away and buy a thought you can take out in public.

Ban the Confederate Flag

Flying the Confederate battle flag is not only racist, it's seditious. The Confederacy was a movement that broke away from the union, set up it's own government, created their own currency, and fought to overthrow the legitimate, elected, government of the United States. All so that states could have the heinous "right" to allow white people own black slaves they considered to be subhuman.

To those who think the flag honors their forefathers, we don’t honor traitors. To those who think the flag symbolizes states’ rights, we don’t honor state-sponsored racism.

It is time we ban this symbolic threat to the Union. Take down every public display of this shameful symbol, ban its sale, and relegate it to museums.

    Being unemployably disabled gives Steve time to ponder the world. With 25 years of business consulting experience and a Masters of International Business, some of these ponderings are credible.
