Anybody Paying Attention

Vaudeville entertainer, Al Jolson (1919) well into his singing performance would occasionally call out to his frenzied audience, "You ain't heard nothin' yet."  As many Americans scratch their heads disbelieving the rhetoric spewed from the 2016, presidential campaigners, I would ask the reader to digest and process the following:

Recently, an Illinois lawmaker proposed a legislative bill making it a crime for a by-stander to video-record fights and then place on the Internet. It has become a common practice amongst teens to encourage fighting and then film the violence on their cell phones. (Note: I will venture a guess that over 98% of teens and 85% of adults are clueless about that seventh Beatitude, "Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called children of God").

This teen generation will produce tomorrow's leaders and President.

You ain't heard (seen) nothin' yet!
