Nuclear destruction should be a concern for all

| February 17, 2022 1:00 AM

Everybody, that means each everybody. That means each and everyone of us living underneath the nuclear umbrella, everybody that means each and every one of us. Are you prepared for life in a nuclear winter. Unless we all have a mutual discourse about the lethal nature of our shared abominable situation as a human race and its abhorrent technology we may not be here on planet earth much longer. Nuclear warheads in the thousands are scattered across the globe in silos submarines and airplanes just waiting to be launchd and summarily detonated.

Those of us who are fortunate enough to be directly in the blast zone will be killed instantly. While the rest of us will die a slow, painful miserable death from the fallout and radiation poisoning. It is unimaginable to think about but the actual deadly reality of our times and we be willing to sit down and have a real conversation about our dire predicament before someone does push the big button and kill us all, our children and grandchildren, our parents, our friends, all of the animals in the woods and ourselves.

As concerned citizen,
