It’s amazing that we have to hear lectures on law and order from someone with 34 criminal convictions — a person who plays games with the lives of innocent people, including President Obama and New York Attorney General Letitia James — and who is now trying to take over Washington, D.C., with all kinds of threats.

But we have to at least advise our children to save their lives through this madness of President Trump. Let’s take the responsibility for at least offering some guidance to our young people. Not only in the nation’s capital, but throughout America

  • Ask your children to leave the streets and be home before dark.
  • Tell them to be extremely cautious and most respectful to everybody while outside the home and especially to police officers (most are on our side because they’ve been disrespected with this takeover of our city, too), National Guard, FBI, CIA, ICE, Homeland Security, Park Police, Metro Police, Coast Guard, Military Police (all branches), Amtrak and anyone with a gun or authority to police our nation. Be obedient.
  • Don’t congregate on any streets — not even in your neighborhood.
  • Go straight home, or to the library, Boys and Girls Clubs or any place your parents have authorized you to go.
  • Refrain from responding to rudeness from any adult.
  • Be patient with everybody.
  • Raise your hands immediately if an adult threatens you with a gun.
  • Be sure to stay within speed limits if you are driving.
  • Be careful when riding a bicycle. Ride slowly and observe traffic lights. Do not crisscross the street against the light. When walking, obey all traffic lights.
  • If you see someone being brutalized, do not intervene, but go to the nearest place you can to inform an adult you trust.
  • When walking in groups, keep your voices down and do not get into fights.
  • Don’t give anybody an excuse to threaten you or try to arrest you.
  • Parents, add your own rules for your children during this difficult process, and don’t forget to pray the devil back to hell every day! Also, remind your neighbors to talk with their children about these recommendations so their children can stay safe.

I took the time to make these suggestions because I care about our children’s safety — and about you! Let’s be kind to one another so we can all get through this invasion safely.

Just remember who was standing all around Trump during his press conference while claiming he was invading our city to liberate us!
