Are we all really this stu... stubborn?
In the words of Rodney King, can we all get along?
And people, you know who you are.
Okay if you don't, then yes you...
• You, who cannot be asked nicely to buy just enough toilet paper, hand sanitizer, eggs, meat, bread, and other essential items.
• You, who cannot stay put and safe at home particularly when you insist on going out to do nothing of importance.
• You, who cannot stay a good safe distance away from other people if and when you do need to get out of your house
• You, who do not know how to properly wash your hands and self quarantine if needed.
• You, who do not care who gets infected or worse, you who do not care who you infect.
• You, business people who price gouge and take advantage of the situation
• You, media people who cannot separate your personal agenda and personal biases from the duties and responsibilities that are expected of you as professional journalists.
• You, politicians and public officials who in a time of national and worldwide crisis still do not know that this is the singular moment if ever, and maybe never again to rise up, do the right thing and finally earn your pay and pay back the trust that your constituents undeservingly gave you.
Sit down and do your jobs, people!
Do what is expected of you, even just for once in your whole lifetime.
No joke, the blood of millions, even billions are in our hands, each one of us. Yes you and me and every single one of us.
We have one enemy, not one another but a tiny thing, one that we cannot even see. We all need to get our act together. If we survive this, then we can go back to our old stubborn selves, personal agenda and partisan politics. But not now.
Right now we are all just one race, the human race, one color, one creed, one blood. Stop finger pointing, grandstanding, profiteering and pushing an agenda. Yes you!
