On a Gulfport base, gunfire loud
Made folks jumpy and filled them with doubt
So they shipped in a wall
Of cargo containers tall
To try to keep bullets from flying out

My friend Tom Pitzen, who is a local artist, created this piece, which sits at the main entrance into Gulfport at Clymer Park. His daughter Josie and my daughter Katie hung out together for a long time and I was extremely privileged to watch it taking shape in his backyard. It was an unbelievably special experience.

In 2022, there was widespread discrimination against people.

Even the contributed to in opinion pieces.

Every day this year, please remember a transgender person who lost their life.

None of these people should have died. We need to stop the hate to save lives.

Today, please remember Shawmaynè Giselle Marie, a 27-year-old who was killed in , on June 21, 2022.

@giascott it’s possible, but every time I bop around I very rarely encounter anyone being rude. More often I see people being extra polite. Still not fully used to being called Mr. Chris but it works.

@giascott it is a overall general politeness that I have only found in a few places in this country.

The best part of our entire excursion was we did not meet even ONE rude person.

Nobody pushed, nobody snarked, & people actually smiled & held doors for us. Even the wildest unleashed children were all smiles & polite too.

Every customer, store clerk, waitress, or worker we encountered was reasonably pleasant & seemed happy.

I'm pretty sure they have drugged Gulfport's water supply, tbh.
