The Miracle Tank

[Why-Me]

So why is it the appropriate response to this to loot, burn, and destroy the businesses and public services in your own community? How does that advance someone's cause?

I haven't heard anyone condone what's going on.
And by all means I sure as heck wasn't.
I agree with your sentiment.

Sorry but this is just crazy and senseless. Not even sure why they arrested the man about trying to pass a $20 counterfeit bill. Seems like some questions need to be asked first. Now the same thing is being repeated around the country in different cities. This and Covid what a great mix of problems intersecting at the same time.
Be safe out there all and practice safe distancing from all the problems. Glad your friends have a place to hunker down safely with you!

I disagree with your premise. it's not the appropriate response. It puts them on the same level as those they are protesting and it undermines their cause.

As for your other questions, yes more has to be asked and answered, however, according to what was made public, they did not arrest him for passing the counterfeit bill. They questioned him as he fit the description. While they had him, they checked for outstanding warrants, which came back negative. The officer who was told this by dispatch, for some reason, told the other officer there were warrants and that is why they arrested him.

Whether or not you agree or disagree with it, a single knee during the national anthem sparked a national debate about how PDs deal with race and put them under the microscope and now body cams are the norm. No one had to throw bricks and set fires.

As I often tell my boys, your emotions are legit, but it is how you deal wit your emotions that count, so do your best to understand what you want to achieve before acting, because many times it's to hurt those who hurt you and that rarely results is a better outcome.

Implied sarcasm. It is just one of those things that make me question people's thinking.

No clown babies (ie fish food) yet. Maybe tonight. The nerites are leaving eggs all over the place

With clowns spawning, the pods exploding, and now the nerites leaving eggs all over the place my tank is turning into a Sodom and Gomorrah tank.
