That’s NOT How You Do It, America!

Note the headline in a Newsweek article linked here: "Thousands plan to scream helplessly at the sky on Trump’s election anniversary.” My God, I thought, and I’m an atheist!

I mean really, are Americans babies that their only solution to Trump is to “helplessly scream at the sky” on the anniversary of Trump’s election? Well, infantile helplessness may suit infantile Americans but it’s certainly NO SOLUTION, the rest of the world deals with problems in a mature, constructive, deliberate and EFFECTIVE manner.

And to think that only yesterday Martin Luther King marched on the capitol with his thousands to peacefully DEMAND social justice and equality for all Americans, regardless of race, creed or colour. Such was the power of the people led by King that the deep state had him assassinated, but is a life, if lived in helplessness and slavery, a life worth living? NO it isn’t, it’s a fate worse than death, which King did not fear.

Where are the “brave” Americans today, I would surely like to know?

Consider, like mature adults, the tragic and pathetic response to Trump by the people when clearly recent history has formulated successful strategies to pursue, though of course, we should be able to improve on the past. Yet like helpless children chucking tantrums, the best Americans can do is ‘scream at the sky.’ Give yourselves and the rest of the mature world a break.

It is bad enough to have and emotional retard and narcissistic (NPD) infantile personality leading the nation but surely emulating Trump is no solution to the Trump problem. If nothing else organise a huge demonstration, or better still MARCH on the capitol and demand that Trump is REMOVED from office. If you PARTICIPATE in this type of ACTION I can guarantee you would soon feel much better and soon regain your spines and self respect.

It is the prerogative of the PEOPLE, in any democratic nation to remove, according to Constitutional law, any president or leader that threatens the founding principles of a nation, and Trump is not only destroying America, he threatens the entire world with his nuclear trigger-finger and extremely infantile sick mind. Following is the Newsweek article for your convenience and utter astonishment:

Thousands plan to scream helplessly at the sky on Trump’s election anniversary
by Chris Riotta

Thousands of concerned citizens will take part in a new ritual of sorts: commemorating the anniversary of Donald Trump's election by screaming at the sky.

Over 4,000 Facebook users have RSVP'd—another 33,000 are interested in attending—to the Nov. 8 event being held in Boston that is literally titled "Scream helplessly at the sky on the anniversary of the election."

The event is pretty much self-explanatory. On the anniversary of last year’s election, thousands will flock to the Boston Common for a party fueled by despair and aggravation over the contest's winner—whom 73 million Americans voted against.

"Come express your anger at the current state of democracy, and scream helplessly at the sky!" the event-details section states.

Protests have erupted across the country since Trump took office, with the Women’s March, which took place the day after his January 20 inauguration, possibly marking the largest single-day demonstration in U.S. history. Nearly all the demonstrations came with a call to action: The Women’s March demanded gender equality and inclusion; protests at airports nationwide stood in opposition to Trump’s travel restrictions on Muslim-majority nations. Other events have been spearheaded by progressive organizations like Planned Parenthood as fundraising initiatives.

The scream event is certainly a one-of-a-kind protest, but it isn’t the only unique demonstration created in the wake of Trump’s election. Residents of Washington, D.C., flocked to Vice President Mike Pence’s house and threw a dance party celebrating the LGBT community. Nationwide, groups also are finding new ways to engage with their representatives, including baking cupcakes for Republican lawmakers when they derail Trump’s conservative agenda.

The upcoming Boston scream party is a departure from taking action against the administration and its agenda. Instead, Americans will be provided the unique opportunity to vent their rage by shouting at the darkening skies above, all the while expecting nothing in return.

The event will be held at the 383-year-old Boston Common, the oldest city park in the country. The park features a sprawling grass lawn, a lake and a bronze statue of George Washington. The upcoming screamfest promises to be one of the loudest events the Boston Common has hosted this year; the park has served as a venue for book launches, wine tastings and festivals throughout 2017.
