What if I told you a person could be against these protests and against neo-nazi protests? Most people don't fall into one extreme or the other.
So true. I can dislike the prior President and not be racist. I can burn two different jerseys but suddenly there are screams of racism when the second jersey is of a black player? I hire people of various backgrounds yet when I support restricting who is allowed to enter the country then I hate immigrants? Is insulting to let to such polarizing conclusions and speaks more of the ignorance of the accuser prone to judge others by their actions yet give themselves a pass based on their intentions.
I always ask anyone wanting open borders if they have doors on their homes? Do they throw holiday parties and allow the first 50 people to wander into the party to stay even if have no idea who some are? Of course they have doors and locks. They invite people to parties. If a stranger is noticed milling around the home or wedding or graduation then someone from the family approaches to ask questions, to determine identity and purpose.
Why would we want a lower hurdle for our country than we intend for our own homes? Live within 100 miles of the Mexican border for a year and then get back to me on whether you have a broader understanding of the challenge of open borders.
I often ask if America is so biased and unfair then why would a person who only speaks Spanish risk crossing the desert to be here? America has problems but is rare for a person to die from being shot by a LEO. Lots of us get shot in America but generally is by someone we know and often by the same race we are.
Any extremists deserve to be shamed. Shame an innocent person with internet sleuthing though and you deserve the fallout.
You want to make America more fair? Change primary school finding so a poor neighborhood's school is funded to the same level as a nice suburban school. Property values and the resulting tax that is raised inherently puts children in poor neighborhoods at risk.
If your child falls behind by Grade 3 then is likely to never catch up with peers. Higher risk will drop out. Drop outs at higher risk to be convicted of a crime. Convicted persons have lower incomes. The next generation is trapped in the same vortex of poverty and failed educational achievements.
Have primary schools provide 3 meals a day to students. A child that is hungry is going to lack energy and focus. Society benefits from an educated workforce and having 1000s of children per state fall behind in primary school has a cost that we eventually pay so pay if up front for better results.
I mention poor. I grew up in poor area that was mostly white. We were rural and half the kids got on a bus to get to school. Our books were old and only two teachers had master's degrees. I was at a disadvantage by being born in a rural area. My challenges mirrored the inner city student in many ways. My skin color did not create issues though and that is where the inner city student had more hurdles in school and life. America is unfair and a review of earnings for college graduates by major by school reveal an earning gap that correlates to race. Prison term length correlates to race and part of that may be explained by less access to highly capable legal representation but race is a factor still when sort by income levels.
Raise up the primary school quality and get nutrition into their young bodies. Focusing on unfortunate instances where LEO used questionable force puts the spotlight so far away from areas that can be changed to help out 100,000s of our children each year rather than use protest time and energy that might save a few dozen young men.
