Good morning. Today I want to share something with you. I present this to you for review. I will ask for no comments on this post, positive or negative. I will ask you to watch the short 6 minute video. And read these lyrics from Tyler. This hit me hard today. Message me and let me know how you feel. Tell me what kinds of thoughts this may have brought up in your minds. We are all in this together. I love you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQ3_AJ5Ysx0 United We Stand. Divided We Fall.

"Long Violent History" Lyrics:
It’s the worst that it’s been since the last time it happened
It’s happening again right in front of our eyes
There’s updated footage, wild speculation,
Tall tales, and hearsay, and absolute lies
Being passed off as factual
When actually the actual
Cause is there awkwardly blocking the way
Keeping us all from enjoying our evening
Shoving its roots through the screens in our face
Now what would you get if you heard my opinion
Conjecturin’ on matters that I ain’t never dreamed
In all my born days as a white boy from Hickman
Based on the way that the world’s been to me
It’s called me belligerent,
It’s took me for ignorant
But it ain’t never once made me scared just to be
Could you imagine just constantly worrying
Kicking, and fighting, and begging to breathe
How many boys could they haul off this mountain
Shoot full of holes cuffed and laying in the street
‘Till we’d come into town in a stark ravin’ anger
Looking for answers and armed to the teeth,
With thirty-aught-sixes,
And Papaw’s old pistol.
How many you reckon?
Would it be four or five?
Or would that be the start of a long Violent History of tucking our tails as we try to abide?
