THE PLAYERS
Please note;
Some people say I write about certain people and events with too much emotion.
I am a human being and I write with as much emotion as they and events have filled me with.
If they have harmed members of our groups or me,
I will not write about them or issues as if, it matters not to me.
If you have more details regarding the noted persons history or others you think I should be aware of,
please forward to
