Anniversary

In the early morning hours of this day in 1865 President Abraham Lincoln died after being shot by actor John Wilkes Booth.  The relationship between the Thespian Community and the Republican Party remains sour to this day.  If I recall correctly, John Wilkes Booth was a Democrat.

Known drunkard and Washington policeman John Frederick Parker was assigned to guard the president's box.  He couldn't possibly screw that up?  Yes, he did.  Parker wandered off to a tavern and got drunk.

Why don't we assassinate Joe Biden and/or Kamala Harris?  Because their assassinations won't solve the problem.  The actual problem is a culture that holds the rights of individuals in contempt.  The assassination of Biden and/or Harris won't solve that problem.
