I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itโs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
Very sweet. Covers record please โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ

The whole worldโs crying for Minneapolis
The next one they murder could be one of us
Innocent people, citizens of peace
One psychopath wants the world on its knees
We the people, the last defense
We the people, make it make sense
He wonโt stop
Until we stop him
He wonโt stop
Until we stop him

As the accursed ostrich situation continues to get simultaneously more stupid and gravely serious, I decided to write up a very long analysis of many of the key issues. Bottom line: so long as this flock lives, it is a threat to Canada's national security. ๐งต

I used to live in Edgewood and still have good friends there. Iโm horrified by what this farm has wrought upon the community with their refusal to respect measures intended to protect everyone. I hope peace returns to the beautiful Inonoaklin Valley soon.

Remember Trumpโs lightbulb moment with Zelensky in the Oval Office a few weeks ago? โYou canโt have elections if youโre at war? Good to know!โ You could see the wheels start to spin right then.
