“The more I learn the less I know, but I’m curious, seek both wisdom and compassion. Believe All is One and that ignorance is the enemy”

This was WeywerdSun’s Twitter bio. I just learned today that the reason I haven’t seen anything new from him in over a month on either Twitter or his blog was that around November 25, 2012, he was found dead with his I-Pad in hand. There are posts from him on Twitter and a blog posting for the 25th.

I did not personally know this man as I don’t know any of my followers all that personally. However, this man was one of the first to follow me when I started on Twitter and I saw him as an example for profound and stinging political commentary. I only wish I had his style, I come up very short in that regard.

If there is a Twitter family, this man was our father.

He was good to his followers with Retweets, Favorites and Follow Fridays. Though you could tell from his tweets this man knew his stuff and was keen about the world around us, a check of his Blog, where he wasn’t limited to 140 characters is where you really got to understand what an intellect this man was.

He was intelligent, thoughtful and inspiring. While you can, please check his Time Line on Twitter and check out his blog posts at http://weywerdsun.com/

As I posted on my twitter account tonight; Rest in Peace my friend, and until we tweet again in a much kinder world.

How nice of the NRA to put out the list of people they say “hate guns.” In doing so, I imagine they are following the example set by former president and documented paranoid public figure, Richard Nixon. This is their “enemies list.”

Now I know this may come as a shock to you all, but most of these organizations don’t “hate guns” wanting them completely eliminated from our country. However, they are in favor of sane rational gun control laws that have been proven to work in the rest of the civilized world not under the terroristic tyranny of the NRA and their paid-for flying monkeys in Congress.

Using NRA logic, this list is missing two very important organizations. I would suggest they add “Citizens of the United States” and the “National Rifle Association” since the majority of both organizations are on record supporting sane rational gun laws across the country, even if it does put a crimp in the profit margins of the gun and ammo manufacturers.
