Hunger Games

If you have ever watched the Hunger Games, you may agree that the events that are unfolding are eerily similar to the armed crackdown that happens when the districts start protesting how they are governed.

One has to wonder why it was acceptable for people to carry weapons into a state capital building to protest the governor's handling of the pandemic, but violent force is used against peaceful protesters, including the press.

While some might howl about their right to bear arms, how about freedom of the press, the right to peaceably assemble-and the basic human right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness?

BY the way, the right to bear arms has already been curtailed so there is precedent to ban military style assault weapons-just look up the definition of "arms".

Yet factions prone to violence are supported and those seeking peace and justice are subjugated?

  The World is upside down.
