Thank you, Laura,

You've set down what is in all our hearts. I have been thinking a lot about Kent State, the galvanic shock then of American soldiers killing white American flower children. What's different today is an entire government dead set on lying about every aspect of this murder and on protecting the killers.

We have greater numbers on our side today, but the entire apparatus of power has been so corrupted, I fear many more innocents will die before we can reclaim Constitutional law and order.

I felt so sad writing this in addition to feeling galvanized. This one connects since she was a literary artist too.

Ever since I.C E. Invaded Chicago, I've often thought about my own death possibly occurring at an agent's hand. I pray silently to myself in public. After my medical appointment, I am finally going to Confession . Out of conscience, I cannot stay silent and inactive. Preparing for my possibly death became stronger yesterday. If I.C.E. will kill a poet, it will kill everyone.

Yes. Every American should feel personally threatened now. Anything else is delusional.
