FOLKS, it looks as though it is up to us. Cruel directives of the Trump administration from January 6th on have not been stopped by laws, by courts, by judges and certainly not by we who have to watch and fear a new atrocity daily. I am calling for us as individual Americans to act.
On March 25, I read this proclamation to my selectmen in Hudson: “’These are the times that try men’s souls.’ Which side are we on? The kind and merciful side or the cruel and thoughtless side. I would seem that a few billionaires in Washington, D.
C., believe they can buy democracy. They frighten and intimidate us into joining them in hurting others — our fellow human beings.
I would like to put forth a modest proposal. “May we as a duly constituted town declare our sacred sovereignty and refuse to join in the pogrom that this Trump administration wishes to perpetrate on immigrants and those who disagree with him and his cohorts in Washington, D.C.
No one person should be forced to forgo his or her conscience or religious beliefs in order to take away another’s right to be considered fully human. That today, in Hudson, all of its people of good conscience and righteousness will protect and guard the lives and safety of all who reside herein, be they U.S.
citizens or those desirous of becoming U.S. citizens.
And that we will not bow down to the prurient desires of those who would separate us. That all in the Town of Hudson are fully human. That all men and women are created equal.
” I am able to write this and speak my truth. Perhaps you can do likewise or perhaps you have another talent that will protect us from the storm. Do it! Perhaps if we all agree on our towns and cities images we can fashion an ordinance for town, city or hamlet, which we consider righteous.
Do what you can do — be creative. Speak to your selectmen or city councilors. It is up to each of us to come to the aid of our country.
