There is so much wealth in southern CA that could do a lot to stop the insanity and they have disappeared like Ted Cruz.

It is about the money. It is always about the money.

So so right on. Where are these people, these famous people who are so afraid of losing their fame and probably their money. People CAN NOT BE SILENT. Especially the famous. I've been posting on my Facebook page this message since January. Silence dooms us. Fear comes from being silent and not standing up for what is RIGHT.

Here is a recent post definitely copied from other like minds who I'm sure don't care if I use their words: Proverbs 24:11-12: "Rescue those who are being taken away to death; hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter. If you say, ‘Behold, we did not know this,’ does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who keeps watch over your soul know it, and will he not repay man according to his work?" This passage emphasizes the importance of acting to protect the vulnerable, implying that inaction in the face of harm will be judged. If you don't know what this passage is about try the Talmud's. “Whoever can protest against wrongdoing and does not is held accountable for that wrongdoing.”

It doesn’t say: “If it’s convenient.”

It doesn’t say: “If your donors will understand.”

It doesn’t say: “If the polls are in your favor.”

It says: if you can speak, and you don’t, you bear responsibility.

Trump's War on immigrants and brown colored people is wrong.

Good question. Hollywood should show up as SOME did during the McCarthy era and this is worse.

Welcome to California, transplant - there are long-standing tensions in Los Angeles surrounding illegal immigration. Magic Johnson is a Generational native American and Proud member of the black community that built LA and it's sports scene. It is unfair to ask these institutions that Generational Angelenos supported to take a Woke position on illegals.

He has always been extremely selfish- horrible boss to the Franchise employees he has always had - my buddy knows him from Commercial Real Estate / saids he is a jerk - fired being Lakers coach - a decade later fired from being Lakers GM / over being a jerk - he is ill informed - does not read - ignorant … Met him once with a super rich client - assumed I wanted a picture with him - started singing “Your so vain - you probably think this song is about you” he started laughing

… I think absence is more ignorance or stupidity more than anything else
