On a recent Sunday morning, I was catching up on the TV political natter, particularly the latest on our best hope: Bernie Sanders.

I reflected upon why he seems to be the target of protests from the Black Lives Matter folks. I decided that they chose him simply because, of all the candidates, he would be the most likely to listen.

Wealthy white men don’t protest at events of Republicans, they just buy them.

Unfortunately, most of Sunday’s programs were focused upon Donald Trump, ad nauseam. So for relief I checked out the movie channels, and found an old horror flick called “Mimic,” an epic that described the battle between humans and a genetically altered plague of giant cockroaches that were able to assume human form. Coincidence?
