People of all walks life are waking up.
I even believe that even groups like antifa are waking up and loosing their members. Their numbers at the violent protests are no bigger than the turnout at a Beto rally.
Then you look at any Trump rally its filled with hope, pride, self worth and bright future in the light.
I stood waiting for a light to cross the street yesterday. I was surrounded by unwrapped MCDonalds straws. No doubt someone took a handful and then just tossed them on the street.
I stood there embarrassed with all the cars driving by, I had this feeling of i'm not a garbage picker, they pay people to cleanup the streets, I don't even have gloves to pick them up. What about the cars its kinda busy in this intersection.
Then I realized I have nothing, I don't live with self pride I feel the world is broken so I start picking up the straws on the sidewalk and work closer to the street and then something happened.
An elderly couple watching from the red light seen me and as soon as the light changed they drove up put their 4 way flashers on and handed me their little car sized garbage bag. I picked every straw up and placed the bag in the trashcan 20 feet away.
This all took about 3-5 mins from me deliberating about picking up trash, to another couple protecting me to grab the remaining 20-50 straws off the road.
I now have Pride in my fellow man and I now know WE ARE NOT ALONE.

Just be thankful you weren't caught with those illegal straws in your possession. No judge would have believed you were just cleaning up.
