Can’t We All Just Get Along?
Truly, if my daughter’s cat and my baby chicks can coexist without either of them doing each other bodily harm, then what the HELL is wrong with people? This idiotic new law in Arizona has the makings of another Rodney King moment. People can’t get together to pray without one of them groping the other, or both of them being blown up by a suicide bomber. Politicians can’t see beyond their own reelection and stop giving the lobbyists reacharounds long enough to do anything to help their real constituents- the regular American people.
What is it going to take for people to notice that we are all in this together? That black and white (and brown) can coexist without hating on each other? Seriously folks, meditate on this!

I cannot disagree with this but I must offer one correction. Everyone knows that their real constituents are those with the loot.
You are, unfortunately, right.
That is the cutest thing ever! I have one who follows me inside the house so she can police the floor of any cat kibbles that may have spilled. I hope your niece doesn’t eat them!
My niece keeps chickens and when she goes to feed them, one (her favorite) ignores the food until she has been picked up and given attention, and only then will she eat. I’ve seen it with my own eyes.
