Three more police officers were killed and three injured in an ambush in Baton Rouge today. The country is reeling from the steady stream of violence. As a result, Cleveland's cops have asked the open carry laws be suspended during the Republican Convention this week. Gov. Kasich refused. Trump, of course, blames a lack of national leadership and calls for law and order, but still favors letting everyone carry assault weapons. How are the police supposed to know who is a threat? Why on earth does anyone need an assault weapon? Why is the portion of the second amendment that says, "well-regulated" always ignored?
I hit 36 miles today. My face is burned and my shoulders and elbow are very sore. The week ahead promises to be very hot so I'm not sure I'll be able to stand swimming in the 90 degree water.
We spent the evening at a picnic with our Penelope friends. Carol's backyard was so peaceful and the conversations was delightful. I ate more than I've eaten in a week because the food was cool, natural, veggie and delicious.
