Spilt Blood . . .

Spilt Blood . . .

Democracy to me means having a choice. However, that choice isn't always easy, and sometimes ends up being wrong.

Just like the words of a label don't always represent the substance the wine inside may or may not have, the words of our political figures may or may not represent the substance of who they are. One candidate may be good, another bad, one just so-so, while another may be outstanding - it may be a hard choice, but at least we have a choice.

We just hope that the choice we make will not ultimately spill over into bloodshed for ourselves and / or others.

***MANY THANKS TO JPG FRIEND J. HARRIS, WHOSE ENTHUSIASM FOR THIS SHOT LED TO A TITLE CHANGE***

    Yes, Natalie! It'd be easier to know when they're lying if voters paid more attention to contemporary history, scrutinized better their cast of characters, the entourage of the ”candidate“. Vices, matter...
