6. It's all so surreal to me.

I saw Rubio as well.

I dozed off with the TV on, and when I woke up it was on TV. I listened for awhile, and then I started to panic a bit, because it reinforced how much trouble we are in.

The man did nothing good. He did many bad things, and now, they have turned him into a deity. They have likened him to Christ.

It would be nice if we could give our true heroes something like this.

Or even some random good person who spent his/her life helping others...instead of talking shit for a living.

I'm not going to sugar coat it. I'm sorry a man was shot and killed. But to speak of him like he was a hero? It's bullshit.
