Mistakes can happen but we should avoid accepting faulty testing as a Norm and it is confusing when the absence of Positive Cases is rewarded with a lifting of Curfew but increased harassment by Collection Patrols… We are all anxious to return to the pre-COVID Days so it is easy to be lulled into believing that opening our Borders will create an influx of Monies to replenish that squandered.

Such Fiscal irresponsibility worsens when we celebrate Holidays by doing nothing – This reduces our self-worth and National Pride and has us accepting ourselves as 2^nd rate People in a 1^st rate Colony… Instead of meriting Hand-ups we see Hand-outs as achievements so even if it takes over 3 years we brag and celebrate receiving UK’s revolving Grants for her Police and Courts Infrastructure.

It’s not about what is in BV-Islanders greater interest and it no longer matters whether gifts are Bread or Stone, Fish or Serpent - We may talk plenty about National independence only to come up empty when it comes to Citizen’s self-reliance… It is a habitual cry of those in Authority to preach Law and Order rather than Humanity even if the end result is the suffering and oppression of their People.

When Leaders Mislead to the Detriment of the People:

This same Colonial Effects produced the SARS, Police Brutality and Corruption crisis in Nigeria – We may recall our leaders courting conditions that could encourage similar behaviour… Americans and Nigerians saw Authorities condemned their Citizen to be Tear gassed and Shot… In the past, this would be hidden and lied about but Today’s technology exposes the Piss-Stories of the Powerful.

Unfortunately, there are still those who doubt their own eyes and are so preconditioned to be selfish and sorry for themselves that every moment is focused on personal benefits and the neglect of others… They see caring as being Corny rather than necessary and fail to reason that we are all only here for a while so what we do to or for others are contributions towards our own futures.

One of their worst examples is a President who perform as the Super Spreader of a deadly disease that is likely to kill his Followers and these Followers know this and still, they follow him… Of course, this is likely to end worse than Guyana’s Jonestown and with us as a Trickle-Down Country, over-eager and anxious, to scoop up the US’s Kool-Aid from December 1, 2020, we should all be concerned.

As Slave Descendants we are already at a point in time where Blacks are far more likely to contract COVID-19 than Whites because of our socio-economic reluctance to work together for the common good… Greed and Scarcity breed Trumpism as the Privileged takes advantage of the Poor - Of course, it’s easy for the living to chase the Dollar but the Dead can neither catch it nor keep it.

All these other Leaders know Trump is Fake and Evil but they are willing to overlook this and extend his ‘Make America Great Again’ reign of terror because they are afraid and hungry for his flattery…  In fact, he has knowingly diminished America and regards these leaders as fools while claiming God sent him as a Biblical King with the rights to kill at whim and break and make laws to suit himself.

Using Religion to justify Destruction:

He demands praise for Mid-East Peace Deals which are the mere pressuring of poor Arab countries to bow to Israel for their survival – Just an old Colonial trick where big Nations pretend to be your friend as they force you to call friends enemies and enemies friends on the hope of delaying your destruction… That’s not Peace - Instead of spending 40 years in a Wilderness, he spent 4 in the US.

He intended to rule for 40 years by any means necessary so he planned to use the same 2016 Election Scheme where Russia hacked the US Election System and topped up US Voters Results in his favour thereby stealing the Election… Meanwhile, he blocked and mocked persons and claimed the accomplishments of others like a Mafia Don whose own misdeeds failed to stick to him like Teflon.  

It worked and he seemed invincible until COVID-19 came along and changed everything - Hidden failures were being exposed and the Early Voting that he warned as being Fake is proving to be the only System capable of preventing Russia’s hack voting that allowed him to win by less than 1% - Should America escape his Dictatorship, she owes it all to The God of Nature and Laws of Balance.

So close but still we wait for, although the end is near, it’s not over until it’s done… Past experience has made us too wise to be foolish and there are still those, including Seniors, who will risk it all to stick with what they are accustomed to… Besides, in a best-case scenario, there is that Lame Duck Session and no one should play blind to the damage that a doomed and desperate Trump can do.

Nonetheless, do not forget that even a chained and blinded Sampson killed everyone by pulling down the temple around him… While he may have been the 1^st Suicide Bomber, it’s hard not to see Trump selling out and destroying America… As BV-Islanders, their November 3 will have a major impact on our December 1 so we must think wisely and act as if our Life depends on it because it does.
