Fighting for a lost cause

When Eamon told me that Sc0tt Hinckley, the brother of John, attempted assassin of Ronald Reagan, was supposed to have had dinner with Neil Bush the day Reagan was shot, I just gave up. I did, what more can they have their hands in, do they have superpowers. They come off as benign, yet that family has influenced and scarred the earth for decades.
My family on the other hand, is new at destruction and mayhem; My eldest, the cause and effect of this treatise, has crossed over to the dark side and I am again going to throw in the towel, and that's only because there is no other path for me to take. I can't live and make choices for another person, I can only stand by and yell.
