He loved this country.
He helped people.
He knew cruelty when he saw it.

His name was Alex Pretti.

Say his name.

Wow. Pushed your button. Ambushed me. I will not argue with you. And you should let a dead man be dead. Hope you find some peace somewhere.

Don't believe in heaven/hell or original sin. Do believe in inherent worth and dignity of every one.

I worked for a defense contractor as an engineer. We had a part in cruise missiles. I had to leave. Knew that there were thousands of lives on the other end. Taught high school science instead. Karmic restitution.

America has a huge "clean-up on aisle GOP" problem to solve. Here's a good start to re-establishing human values.

The state of Georgia is using the body of a brain-dead woman as an incubator. Because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she died, and their abortion ban is from about 6 weeks, they are sustaining her on life support, without input from her family, until 32 weeks of gestation. A true dystopian nightmare.
