Day of Sedition, and Darwin Awards

On the day I stand in line for my first COVID-19 vaccination, is also a Day of Sedition. It will go up in flames and it will go down in infamy. What have we come to, as a nation, that this could even happen? Traitors in our midst. Not from the Left, but from the Right. I grieve, I grieve.  

“Under U.S. federal law, sedition refers to the act of inciting revolt or violence against a lawful authority with the goal of destroying or overthrowing it. Sedition is a felony crime punishable with up to 20 years in prison.”


Stephen Gale wrote: “So I was sad when I heard a rioter died of a "heart attack.”  I was feeling something else today when I learned he was in the process of stealing a portrait of Tip O'Neil, when he accidentally tasered himself in the balls until his heart gave out. You just can't make this stuff up.”

I just snorted my proverbial tea through my nose. I felt guilty, it’s the first time I laughed since the national nightmare began. We are the laughingstock of the world. But the droll screenplay for 2021 is off to a surreal start, replete with real Darwin Awards. Scene two: a woman that got trampled to death had a Don't tread on me flag. Karma has spoken, dripping with irony.
