If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain. Emily Dickinson

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

I can’t get past the number of gloves they found that were searchers’ gloves that had been discarded. Who throws away crap in an area of interest!?
The FBI says a glove containing DNA was found about two miles from Nancy Guthrie's Arizona home and appears to match those worn by a masked person outside her front door the night she vanished. n.pr/4tF2ANO

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.
