The rashness of nuclear threats

Unfortunately, we are usually unable to spot a mass murderer before the heinous crime. But what do we do when we see a murderer who lays out his plans before us? Do we stop him, or do we ignore his plans?

Our erratic blunder-in-chief has told the world that total annihilation of North Korea is his option — “my opinion counts most.”

The fact that our state government has recently advised us of how we can survive a nuclear blast should be a wakeup call for all of us who share this president. Let’s all visit Hiroshima and listen to the survivors before we let Trump dive off the deep end again.

My ground is too hard to dig a proper fallout shelter/grave. I for one find our country close to another stupid war. Don’t worry — be happy!
