Prickly City by Scott Stantis for January 17, 2022

Not if Stantis and the Party of Trump have their way.

We should already be there!

But the Moscow Mitch McTurtle RethugnikKKKlans will always stop any progress into the light!

Sad but that is the way it is!

Remembering yesterday’s strip, this feels like déjà vu all over again!

One can only hope…

Sounds like comments from people having to stand in line for 9 hours to vote . . .

We finally elect a black President – a man a grace and dignity – then as a nation we completely lose our minds.

Yeah, we’re getting there alright.

The odds are at least equal, if not more preponderant, that humans will self-extinct instead of exercising existing innate potential to survive and thrive as a unified, cooperative, non-destructive, not-homicidal, non-exclusionary species.

We were getting there, but the looney left is pushing us further away.

Signs are we are going in the opposite direction

Starting to doubt it. We’re back where things started in some ways.

“Ooh child

Things are gonna get easier

Ooh child

Things’ll get brighter

Ooh child

Things are gonna get easier

Ooh child

Things’ll get brighter

Some day, yeah

We’ll put it together and we’ll get it undone

Some day

When your head is much lighter

Some day, yeah

We’ll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun

Some day

When the world is much brighter. . ." – The Five Stair Steps, 1970

There’s a lot of unlearning to do before that will happen.

IF YOU RESPOND DIRECTLY TO THE RESIDENT TROLLS

Just the continual reminder (feel free to copy and use elsewhere)

You would not waste your time exchanging one-to-one or verbal comments with the dangerous mentally ill, mental defectives and/or traitors to your country. It is a futile effort to get them to see how their words and actions are an effort to destroy the quality of life we have.

That is what those on these forums are doing when they respond DIRECTLY to the ignorant, malevolent and/or greedy trolls. Just take note and keep vigilant about their actions. The collective “they” will try again to destroy Democracy. Hopefully, if the Blue leadership abandons the Neville Chamberlain School of Politics, we will be better prepared next time and realize that we are in a fight for our country.

Not in America, not in her lifetime (she’s fictional, but you know what I mean.)

Not as long as we a ruled by the soul less minority.

Has anyone here seen my old friend Martin ? Can you tell me where he’s gone ?

Right now, our “Nazis” aka Republicans are turning back the clock as fast as they can.

Kind of breathtaking that there’s a Republican cartoonist who isn’t quoting that one single line of King’s that they approve of.
