They think they are clever with their dirty tricks.

But God knows the hearts and minds of all people.

 

Oliver Anthony read from Psalm 37 to give us hope.

 

Psalm 37

New International Version

Psalm 37[a]

Of David.

 

1

Do not fret because of those who are evil

or be envious of those who do wrong;

2

for like the grass they will soon wither,

like green plants they will soon die away.

 

3

Trust in the Lord and do good;

dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

4

Take delight in the Lord,

and he will give you the desires of your heart.

 

5

Commit your way to the Lord;

trust in him and he will do this:

6

He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,

your vindication like the noonday sun.

 

7

Be still before the Lord

and wait patiently for him;

do not fret when people succeed in their ways,

when they carry out their wicked schemes.

 

8

Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;

do not fretโ€”it leads only to evil.

9

For those who are evil will be destroyed,

but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

 

10

A little while, and the wicked will be no more;

though you look for them, they will not be found.

11

But the meek will inherit the land

and enjoy peace and prosperity.

 

12

The wicked plot against the righteous

and gnash their teeth at them;

13

but the Lord laughs at the wicked,

for he knows their day is coming.

 

14

The wicked draw the sword

and bend the bow

to bring down the poor and needy,

to slay those whose ways are upright.

15

But their swords will pierce their own hearts,

and their bows will be broken.

 

16

Better the little that the righteous have

than the wealth of many wicked;

17

for the power of the wicked will be broken,

but the Lord upholds the righteous.

 

18

The blameless spend their days under the Lordโ€™s care,

and their inheritance will endure forever.

19

In times of disaster they will not wither;

in days of famine they will enjoy plenty.

 

20

But the wicked will perish:

Though the Lordโ€™s enemies are like the flowers of the field,

they will be consumed, they will go up in smoke.

 

21

The wicked borrow and do not repay,

but the righteous give generously;

22

those the Lord blesses will inherit the land,

but those he curses will be destroyed.

 

23

The Lord makes firm the steps

of the one who delights in him;

24

though he may stumble, he will not fall,

for the Lord upholds him with his hand.

 

25

I was young and now I am old,

yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken

or their children begging bread.

26

They are always generous and lend freely;

their children will be a blessing.[b]

 

27

Turn from evil and do good;

then you will dwell in the land forever.

28

For the Lord loves the just

and will not forsake his faithful ones.

 

Wrongdoers will be completely destroyed[c];

the offspring of the wicked will perish.

29

The righteous will inherit the land

and dwell in it forever.

 

30

The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom,

and their tongues speak what is just.

31

The law of their God is in their hearts;

their feet do not slip.

 

32

The wicked lie in wait for the righteous,

intent on putting them to death;

33

but the Lord will not leave them in the power of the wicked

or let them be condemned when brought to trial.

 

34

Hope in the Lord

and keep his way.

He will exalt you to inherit the land;

when the wicked are destroyed, you will see it.

 

35

I have seen a wicked and ruthless man

flourishing like a luxuriant native tree,

36

but he soon passed away and was no more;

though I looked for him, he could not be found.

 

37

Consider the blameless, observe the upright;

a future awaits those who seek peace.[d]

38

But all sinners will be destroyed;

there will be no future[e] for the wicked.

 

39

The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord;

he is their stronghold in time of trouble.

40

The Lord helps them and delivers them;

he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,

because they take refuge in him.

But those lyrics aren't in the song.

 

Rich Men North of Richmond

Oliver Anthony

 

[Verse 1]

I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day

Overtime hours for bullshit pay

So I can sit out here and waste my life away

Drag back home and drown my troubles away

 

[Pre-Chorus]

It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to

For people like me and people like you

Wish I could just wake up and it not be true

But it is, oh, it is

 

[Chorus]

Livin' in the new world

With an old soul

These rich men north of Richmond

Lord knows they all just wanna have total control

Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do

And they don't think you know, but I know that you do

'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end

'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

 

[Verse 2]

I wish politicians would look out for miners

And not just minors on an island somewhere

Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat

And the obese milkin' welfare

 

[Verse 3]

Well, God, if you're 5-foot-3 and you're 300 pounds

Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds

Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground

'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Lord, it's a damn shame what the world's gotten to

For people like me and people like you

Wish I could just wake up and it not be true

But it is, oh, it is

 

[Chorus]

Livin' in the new world

With an old soul

These rich men north of Richmond

Lord knows they all just wanna have total control

Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do

And they don't think you know, but I know that you do

'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end

'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

 

[Outro]

I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day

Overtime hours for bullshit pay

I kinda skipped around thru the vid. because of its length. I did skip to the end and watch the last few minutes.

LEOs are so corrupt. And they cover for each other. Bunch of Masons and Fraternal Brotherhood of Police and all that shit.

I don't trust any of them.

They don't Serve & Protect much other than themselves and their pensions.

They seem more interested in harassing people than anything else.

Bullies with Badges.

>when civilization underwriting the paycheck and pension is driven to ruin by them aiding and abetting wall to wall corruption

They don't give a fuck about that.

They really aren't that smart.

They are Black & White thinkers.

A certain personality is drawn to "Law Enforcement"

Most of the time they don't even know what the laws are that they are supposedly enforcing.

They just follow orders.

 

My brother-in-law is a retired cop. He was the Deputy Chief for a small Chicago suburb. Most of the time he is a pretty descent guy, but

he is a bone head know-it-all. Cannot be reasoned with. A big blowhard who likes to throw his weight around.
