I’m up in Canada so we are all just on edge watching to see what will happen tomorrow for mass protesting.

Whatever happens, everyone stay safe, protect and guard yourself from danger and keep aware of your surroundings. Stay with a small group of allies and keep yourselves safe.

If you are not prepared and don’t know what you are doing … stay back and don’t become front line fodder.

If you are prepared and equipped, stay safe, protect yourself, run and hide if you must. I’d rather see you running than to be put in danger.

Whatever you do tomorrow to take part, we’re all cheering for our American brothers and sisters standing for democratic rights and fighting against fascism.

    I mention and point out this post here because the same young people who are fans of Star Trek and follow the ideas and ideals of the show and writers over the many series, understand how those same ideas apply to our world. All the Trek story arcs are a constant reminder of humanity and where we came from in that Trek universe and how we could some day overcome our selfish past and start exploring the galaxy. It’s a constant message of hope that we can do better.

    Trek fans are Trek fans because they enjoy thinking and critically looking at our world and hope for a better future … and they all know that change has to happen in order for humanity to progress. The fear and worry is in how that change will play out … either peacefully or violently.

    And like I said … there will be a lot of young Trek fans out there today and I wish with all my heart that they stay safe and secure wherever they are.

    I posted this as a reminder, a warning and a precaution to those young Trek fans that might be out there … that is the main reason why I posted this.
