Cartoons away
I will be posting some of these little doodles from time to time. Rejected strips for an online newsletter-type zine. Clearing of the throat, artistically speaking.

We've got love when hate is the only way ...
An elderly Neo-Nazi extremist (“extremist,” as if there really any other kind of fucking Neo-Nazi) went out the other day and opened fire at the DC Holocaust Museum. A security guard was killed in the shooting. The museum recently reopened, so that visitors could reflect on the violence perpetrated in the past, hopefully preparing for violence that may happen in the future.
In Arizona (land of tolerance and love, sarcasm sarcasm sarcasm), Shawna Forde, Jason Eugene Bush and Albert Robert Gaxiola shot to death 29 year old Raul Flores and his 9 year old daughter, while leaving Flores’ wife to die. Forde has been under the radar of a few civil liberties groups for her flagrant anti-immigrant stances. All suspects have ties to The Minutemen American Defense group.
Pundits who accused legal – as in passing the acid test of societal mores - abortion provider Dr. George Tiller of being quote “Tiller the Baby Killer” have gone on the defense over statements they’ve made about him possibly being the cause and/or stimulus to his being targeted by extremist assassins. This after they’ve accused various liberals and Democrats of influencing extremists in Iraq (remember that whole “they watch the elections results over there, too” thing in 2004 and 2006?).
North Korea wants to arm itself with long-range nuclear missiles when it can’t even feed its own people, making it one of the poorest nations in the world.
Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with everyone? Nobody knows how to just share the world with other people anymore?
We’re in an economic depression. Now is not the time to lose your shit. Now is not the time to step on someone else’s toes to get ahead of the line. Now is not the time to spend money on stupid shit you don’t need. Now is not the time for hate.
Stay tuned for more updates. Feel like I need to actually do those in times like these.
