DESCRIPTION:
B’ezrat HaShem! T.V. does not reflect reality! This is an appeal, not unlike David Walker’s “APPEAL, IN FOUR ARTICLES…,” written in 1829, but different. This is an appeal for Americans to think of how we can all stop, drop and roll, to put the fires out of our own country. This book challenges us to stop the burning, that threatens us to become ashes. We can all feel the smoke. Some of us can smell it. Some cough, breathing it. Others, of us, live in smoke, seeing it permeate, while watching our firefighters die.
Tell me: Is it a waste of time to save Democracy? Is it a waste to petition grassroots communities, to fill buckets of our homegrown wealth with water, to douse our wildfires, and undercut the malfeasant engines that flood gasoline through firehoses, destined to spread our blazes, globally?
Double Jeopardy thrives in paradise. The THINKING that fuels paradise is destabilizing it. Buy this book. Get the Grandparent’s Bold-Print Version. Get the “DUAL” to read to
