No DMs! Fed up grandma & local activist in a very red and racist Texas trying to get in Good Trouble. One of many Grantifas of Parker Co, anti-Trump, anti-bigots. Very opinionated. No one intimidates this old woman

If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them: —Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings —More guns don't make us safer —A majority of Americans want gun reform We don't have to live like this.

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

I just opened this account and hope to be followed by many & I will follow back. Have enjoyed FB since ‘09 but have serious issues with it now. Formerly known as Twitter is a new kind of he*l for me now. Ready for a positive change

Remember those days five years ago when everyone with any sense of decency was standing together after George Floyd’s death? I was one of them. Remember all the protests against Confederate statues? I was there. So were hundreds of people ready to kill us. I saw the dark side of humanity 1st hand.

Once kids were pretty grown I started phone banking for Obama and haven’t stopped being involved. I know about discrimination against women. We came a long way, Baby. Saw the “whites” only signs as a child. Will those come back? We have reversed course and headed back to dark ages. It must stop!
