What's this?

None of what you just suggested is true. I believe we have laws for the

Good of a civil society & lawless mobs don’t get to skirt around those laws. I have no problem with a protest. I have a huge problem with an unlawful assembly, especially if they are violent & destructive. Any idiot shot on the streets of an illegal assembly has no one to blame but themselves. If our cities across the country would’ve handled these destructive protesters in this fashion from the very start than there would already be many lives saved. If we continue to handle these events in our current manner, many more lives will be unnecessarily killed.

We should both try to keep the conversation civil. I know we both feel strongly but we should try. However, if you do feel the need to verbally attack you might want to go with how full or thick my head is because it’s not small. 👍
