Circular, but is saying **** getting me anywhere? The first amendment and a nickel doesn’t put a roof over my head. How long ago did MLK die? That’s a lot of sign holding. Hasn’t helped much, has it?

I’ve known two people well, one woman and one man, that were attacked by complete strangers and raped. A girl I knew in junior high was murdered. None of that is fiction.
I doubt you’d be comfortable at all walking around where I live.
