TEXAS- Anti-lockdown demonstration in Texas

So this is what is meant by freedom.*  

What happens if they do not get what they want, when they want it, in full measure?

Then what?

MICHIGAN- Anti-Whitmer protesters take over Capitol steps

Not that I care if they were to get exactly what they bargain for, — as long as it does not involve anyone else.  Unfortunately, what you and I desire, always involves others.

  *The ability of corpulent, white, older males to swagger around the steps of their State Capitol with their AR-15 slung over their hip.


Runnin’ With The Devil

By Van Halen

I live my life like there’s no tomorrow
And all I’ve got I had to steal
Least I don’t need to beg or borrow
Yes, I’m living at a pace that kills

Runnin’ with the devil
Runnin’ with the devil
I’ll tell y’all about it

I found the simple life ain’t so simple
When I jumped out on that road
I got no love, no love you’d call real
Ain’t got nobody waiting at home

Runnin’ with the devil
God damn it lady, you know I ain’t lying to ya
I’m wanna tell you one time
Aah-yeah
Running with the devil
Yes I am
Yeah

Woo
Woo

You know I, I found the simple life, weren’t so simple, no
When I jumped out on that road
Got no love, no love you’d call real
Got nobody waiting at home

Runnin’ with the devil
Runnin’ with the devil

Runnin’ with the devil
Runnin’ with the devil
