Can you feel it? I can. The need for change? Bob Dylan wrote "A HARD RAIN IS GONNA FALL"

here's part of the song


Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it,
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin',
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin',
I saw a white ladder all covered with water,
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.


I read that a couple of years ago a guy right out of an insane asylum was able to buy a rifle. He used it to kill 2 people. The Va Tech killer was declared mentally unstable and a threat to himself and others by a judge, yet this did not have to go into the FBI database that gun shops use to check whether someone can buy a gun.

Next up, Iraq. The so called surge has only created more violence against Americans. We are about to have over 100 dead for this month.

I see a lot of insanity going on, and not just by those judged mentally incompetent. I think things are going to change soon because this can't go on any longer.
