Check out Johnny Cash - Goin' By The Book Music video by Johnny Cash performing Goin' By The Book with Coke Sams, Scott Mele, Mary M. Matthews, Jim May (C) 1991 Mercury Records / I guess you have to be over age 30 to comprehend this video. Under 30 skip this one. But for those of us that recall the end of the cold war. The astounding potential for peace that it brought- we had won the cold war! But watch the dates on this vid. The cam- has the date stamps on it. Think back to that era. Everything we stand for and where we are today. Ask yourself if we have advanced as a people- or maybe we haven't. A profound look at how nearly 20 years... we have- been .... messed up. So now we have congress cramming unilateral contracts- for which I did not sign- nor do I know the details of such contract! A lesser group if people in this video is crushed- and what a government does to other peoples - it can and WILL do to its own people. We inherited a cruel world and it will be so when we pass. But ask yourself- have you really assisted-, aided and abetted- those who enjoy violence? More to the point - is our culture worthy of any type of glory- when we let this happen- again and again... If anything- the piece shatters the illusion that we are a peaceful people and an advanced society. 19 years! This piece is 19 years old. Anyhow- it a profound commentary on the world.
