As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “End U.S. Wars and Occupations,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"True leaders work for peace." "The greatest purveyor of violence in the world: my own government, I cannot be silent." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr

“True leaders work for peace.” “The greatest purveyor of violence in the world: my own government, I cannot be silent.” – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

My Commentary: Indeed!

"A message from your government: You are free... as long as we control your resources, as long as we control your education, as long as we control your currency, as long as we control your internet, as long as we control your military, as long was we control your justice, as long as we control your land - for your own safety.

The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my post, “The American People Have Spoken?“…

Rayn: The American People Have Spoken… Wait… That doesn’t sound right!

"The American People Have Spoken"

“The American People Have Spoken”

Natalie M.: this cartoon addresses the issues upsets me most about our society, and I say society not government because we are all to blame for allowing this system to continue to exist.

Rayn: Indeed. Complacency is complicity… “In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.” – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr

Natalie M.: Dr. Kings genius is under appreciated, thank you for quoting him. It is not done enough.

Rayn: You’re welcome. It’s one of my favorite quotes of his. 🙂

(The Hill, Geneva Sands) “I would argue that in some ways that by reality kind of seeping into his life as the commander-in-chief that a lot of it’s modeled after … 43,” Bush said in an interview with CBS’s “This Morning” host Charlie Rose.
