I'm still processing yesterday's mob attack on the U.S. Capitol. Prior to the invasion, Sting's "Brand New Day" was running through my mind, reflecting my relief about Democrats gaining control of the Senate. While watching scenes from the insurrection, however, I kept thinking of the song, "Alas For You," from the "Godspell" soundtrack. Jesus's last lyric in the tune, "Blind fools," was the one that came to mind most often.
That sums it up pretty well, I think. You just can't reason with people who are that far gone.
