The baltimore riots are just another ho-hum since the L.A. Watts riots.

Same darn thing, same darn inactions, same darn tired old as the dead horse they whip again arguments, and the same darn dead whipped horse solutions.

Ain’t it funny that this nation never had a Nobel Prize for peace, given to a sitting President, until this one?

Ain’t it funny that with the elections of this present president, that the nation was to transcend all of the previous racial strife, and bring forward a new kumbaya moment of peace and love of all the races in the nation?

When this sort of thing happened in Jena, LA, I was sorta kinda waiting to see if the purported stories about folks bringing machine guns there were true, and if so, how quick would it have either escalated or dowsed the fire.

Half of Stamford, CT., my listing of domicile of years gone back, was burned down in the riots of the ‘60’s, to include all the hometown military veteran monuments dating back to the Revolutionary War.

People that destroy other folks homes and livelihoods do not deserve jail time, nor court. I believe a certain photogenic South Vietnamese general set the standard for that.

Theodore Roosevelt won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1906 for mediating a treaty to end the Russo-Japanese War. He served as president from 1901 to 1909.
