John,
 I've been quietly observing your comments.  You are now espousing your
own political viewpoints, which although I personally do not agree with,
you have that right.... however not in this forum.  Please in the future
refrain from doing so here.  I'm sure you can find other like minded
forums that will tolerate your ethics.  This is a balloon forum, and
thereby  our comments should be mostly related to balloons.  I for one
have now placed "freedom" balloons outside the store, and on my vehicle,
and am more than willing to provide uplifting balloons to all who need
something positive in what is am emotional roller coaster for many of us
right now.  I have a Bar Mitzvah Party this weekend, that the young man
will never forget. He has many family and friends that will find a way
to be here to celebrate, and we will add to that celebration with our
balloons. He will celebrate how fragile life is just like how fragile
our balloons are.  I hope that you will see that your comments on this
forum are neither balloon related or uplifting
