No, I'd say it's more like this actually...
Those are from the last few days. Let me guess, all of those unarmed students going up against armed cops were a clear and present danger.
I try not to get into debating online. It goes nowhere and ends up with "no you" , name calling, "I thought this was America", sarcasm, and stereo typing groups of people. I'm tired at this point and I'll be pushed into whatever corner you want if drawn into one.
Change is inevitable. It's often not pretty. Freedom and security are always at play. And in the end it's your point of view that's going to be what matters, empathy as well, for other peoples hardships. There is not perfect solution to this, we can have perfect goals and Invision a perfect world. And we can try to get there. But calling all cops bad or all group A or B bad is just part of the problem to begin with. So I can't get behind person or group that pushes that kind of thinking. I have Gay friends, Trans friends, Cop friends, Jewish friends and so on. What I'm not going to do is bandwagon hate any of them. Police have guns because they have to enforce the law. It's scary as hell to be in large group of emotionally charged people with religion backed group thought and a feelings of injustice. But there you have it. Police have to move the people who don't want to move.
War is terrible and should be avoided when possible. War for land or power or religion influence is wrong and should be stopped. I think we can agree. I'm just tired of the victim mentality and stereo typing of each other. It will not work that way. And progress is not a straight line.
And........ I just did exactly what I said I wouldn't do.
