My oh my, our current mayor has gone national by publicly
attacking San Francisco on its stance against the National Rifle
Association. According to our delusional
mayor the NRA is "an extraordinary defender of America's constitutional
civil rights" his words. Never mind it has repeatedly proven to be a domestic terrorist organization that must be ended.
Needless to say, our mayor is a member of the NRA!
Now I am not against anyone owning guns. One in the house
for protection is a good idea. I'm not even against hunting rifles although I
abhor the practice. However no one needs a military assault type weapon unless
they are up to no good! And the idea of arming teachers is one of the stupidest
ideas I've ever heard! I picture more innocent people being killed in the
crossfire.
Our mayor used official city letter head in his criticism,
as if all of Vero Beach is behind him! A San Francisco Examiner columnist
cleverly upbraided our mayor and rightly so. However due to the letter head he
also had some not-so-nice things to say about Vero Beach, my hometown of the
last 20 years.
Ok, I'll admit Vero Beach is a Trump turd stronghold! Many
people here think Trump walks on water when he's actually more like a fat chunk
of excrement floating in a sewer!
I know there are many others in Vero Beach who feel as I do!
I've marched in protests with them against Trump's policies. We received numerous
honks of support as well as the one finger salute.
Our mayor is also an ophthalmologist, in fact, the same one
who performed cataract surgery in both of my eyes.
Because I am alone, I needed their shuttle to pick me up and
drive me home after the surgeries. During my second trip the driver praised
Trump all the way to the Eye Institute. I told him that for the sake of our
country, I hoped someone would shoot Trump! Which I'm sure didn't endear me to
him. Fortunately, coming home I was assigned a different driver. Politics were never discussed.
Our mayor called the San Francisco Examiner columnist's
response "elitist". I could say the same about him! I found this ophthalmologist
more than a bit arrogant. For my next eye exam, I will be taking my business
elsewhere!
