It is so difficult to understand why
“Peaceful protestors” want to ruin
the cities they live in. Are they just
waiting for an excuse to begin anarchy?
Normal citizens are not that organized
A policeman should not shoot anyone
unless it is absolutely necessary. The
idea that a criminal is a victim and
retaliation should take place to the extent
that businesses are destroyed by looting
and fire is not normal, but rather a conspiracy.
It is a continuation of the overreaction to
The death of George Floyd, who died
a terrible death inflicted by one bad policeman.
Insurrection across the country has cost
billions of dollars which the tax payers
will eventually pay for, whether they know it or not.
People and groups they belong to,
who do not love this country are the ones
promoting violence and paying
the Black Lives Matter Group and
the Antifa people to show up, advocate,
and lead the protestors to violent action.
Governors and mayors stand down and
the police are also told to stand down while
people watch what they have been working
for go up in smoke after the looting has taken place.
This will eventually end and sanity and order will be
restored, but people’s lives will be changed forever.
People look for blame and guilt but there is
enough to go around. We, the living, have
to get involved in putting an end to the circle of injustice.
“De-fund the police” is not an answer. Keeping
promises of improved education, improving
depressed neighborhoods, creating jobs and
instilling self-worth to those constantly overlooked
by politicians after having made the promises to
these citizens to improve condition. Solutions are
obvious but implementing them takes courage.
I hear the rhetoric but it echoes down the by-way
like the disappearing dreams of yesterday.
Someday, we may learn
