Gaetz to Follow Saul’s Path?

I’ve done or said many things in my life that I wish I could go back and undo or unsay.

If I were Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) I’d make every effort to undo the stupid move I made the other day by demanding that Manuel Oliver, father of Joaquin Oliver, one of the murdered Parkland students be ejected from a congressional meeting for interrupting him while he (Gaetz) “tried to argue that immigrant violence is worse than gun violence in the U.S.”

In fact, I’d make a public apology for being such a dumb***, given the numbers, 40,000 killed by regular, ole-Americans using good ole guns compared to 400 possibly dispatched by “illegal immigrants”.

Since it’s highly unlikely Mr. Gaetz will have such an epiphany, I sincerely hope the people of Florida’s First District help him find a similar, lighted path to enlightenment that Saul began to followed that fateful day so many years ago.

Here’s the story:

Lyrics
Bob Marley - Redemption Song

Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look? Ooh
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the Book
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book
Won't you have to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had
Redemption songs
All I ever had
Redemption songs
These songs of freedom
Songs of freedom
