                           Vice President Elect   Kamala Harris on assault weapons.   This is just a few minutes long (2;19), to be exact, and it's well worth watching.  When this clip was shot, she was still a candidate for President.   For those who like to quote the 2nd Amendment phrase "shall not be infringed," I have news for you. You cannot buy an automatic weapon.  You cannot buy a gun if you are a felon.  You cannot buy a gun if you are mentally ill.  You cannot buy explosives.  You may buy a semi automatic rifle, but you may soon have a lucrative offer to buy it back.   See the first video on this link .

What follows is an inspired performance by Ethan Hawke as John Brown. ...

I was born in Rochester NY.  It's the 3rd largest city in New York, and parts of it are as gritty and forbidding as some of the streets of New York City.  It used to be a thriving city, with Xerox and Kodak as major employers.  Kodak's photo business has collapsed, and Xerox has been downsizing for years.  I don't have many ties to Rochester anymore, but an item popped up that I had to share. A white police officer shot a black man : "Silvon Simmons was shot three times in an upstate New York city. Then he was accused of trying to kill the cop who fired at him. His story is a study in the kinds of police practices that have sparked protests across America – and it shows the enormous challenge cities face when trying to enact change." "By the time Officer Joseph Ferrigno shot a Black man from behind, court records show, the Rochester cop had drawn at least 23 misconduct complaints in nearly nine years on the force." "Ferrigno fired four shots, hittin...
