Chappy, please feel free to move this...
I've been watching the news far too much and this what I have to say:
Now that I am older, I wish to go and fight with the Ukrainian people. (I am Irish-American, no blood ties) Sadly for me, I am too feeble to be a decent or any kind of a fighter. I would be a detriment to a fighting force.
Putin scares the sh1t out of me. I've always thought he's a nutcase with his finger on the trigger.
The only thing I can do is pray for them, the Ukrainians. Please join me.

I have moved to off topic, though there really is nothing overtly political in your message. It is a sincere concern for our world and for the innocent Ukrainian people who are being subjected to the horrors of war when all they want to do is continue living in peace. However, it *could turn political so out of an abundance of caution I have moved it.

I understand, Chappy. I fear if one made it political, it might ruin this board, which I personally love dearly. Thank you for all you do to keep this place a fun and joyful place to celebrate our favorite team.
Stay safe and well, Chappy.

Thank you huskyharper!
A year ago Merkel tried to reason with Putin and reported to her cabinet that he was out of his mind. Now we know. A land war in Europe: who would ever have thought it was still possible? There will be hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of refugees, and tens of thousands of dead and imprisoned. That's probably the best case scenario. Worst case scenario is too horrible even to voice. If faced with stout opposition, there is no telling what Putin will do.
Prayers and thoughts...and money if possible...and political pressure if one has any to exert

I've got my fingers crossed hoping that someone will depose the SOB. I can't believe that he has the support of the majority of the Russian people.

to demolish/destroy the BabiYar memorial is just ... no words.

I can't believe that he has the support of the majority of the Russian people. sadly, I find myself in a position of wishing his end. I believe he is unhinged. However I do not believe he has as much support as that. Ever hopeful. I
