Distant Thunder

A kid in the barber shop shook my hand, told me his name and said he was going to “Start a revolution”. I recalled that a book predicted that his would be the generation that was due to start a revolution. The book was called “Generations”.

With eighty-one percent of the population thinking that the US is headed in the wrong direction, who’s to argue that we are not headed towards turbulence? The school shootings were the distant thunder. The 9.5 trillion dollar deficit is like a storm cloud heading this way.

I just observed “The Killing at Poplar River by Dateline“. I was once again amazed that there are so many people in our nation’s court system NOT able to understand sufficient logic to be able to make any truthful determination of guilt or innocence. The terrible ineptness of an American court to decipher truth again makes me call for mandatory courses about logical fallacies. In the Dateline story, both the ex-governor – the prosecutor at the time – and the then sheriff start with the assumption of guilt. They conclude that because the incarcerated was coerced into a confession that all evidence that disproves his confession must be false. Because the prosecutor’s irrelevant suppositions have not been disproven beyond a reasonable doubt, the incarcerated must be guilty.
