ARC: SHOUTING FIRE

SHOUTING FIRE

ARC © December 7, 2023

Shouting Fire in crowded theater can become crime:

if stampede, someone dies, involuntary manslaughter.

That happened by Trump Jan. 6, Twenty Twenty-Two:

analogous to Seven December 1941, infamous spew.

`No one is above the law…’ underpinning of USA:

past presidents have shamed/challenged principles.

Investigative committee proved Trump originated:

his call `to fight like hell’ caused deaths he fated.

2016 boasted `.could.shoot somebody.wouldn’t lose.voters’

former aide said he threatened staffer with execution.

Liz Cheney warns Trump is greatest threat to Democracy:

his hostilities personally expose ultimate in hypocrisy.

Don’t change horses midstream is popular idiom:

but, when in peril, wisdom guides us to shift gears.

Please, imploring all hold sacred American ideology:

righteous role modeled courage to resist demagoguery.

I know it’s hard to shift thinking of habitual belief:

but we are rational/ethical/moral/empathetic humans.

See self in the other-sex/creed/age/minority…with zeal.

in addition to pledge, respecting neighbor as self is ideal:

Everyone wants same equal rights, pursuit of happiness:

my child deserves love/safety/respect/education like yours.

Your vote should choose nearest to high egalitarian aims:

Mandela/Gandhi/King/Xiaobo/Anthony…guidance names.
