People can disagree. If we can do it politely then we won't need lent
rules. Instead of laughing, tell me what the fault in my reasoning is
and explain yours. Or tell me what my incorrect fact is with a citation
showing what the correct fact is. We'd be in better shape if we could
do that without lashing out.
I feel like we (the country) can't even talk about this stuff anymore.
We've removed all nuance from discussing complex topics and reduced it
to meme politics. We express an opinion with a picture and a one liner,
and whether you agree or disagree puts you on one team or another. Then
we angrily shriek at each other about it. THAT fatigues me more than
ongoing protests ever could. No vote we can make will change any of
that, but maybe we can all change that part of ourselves.

Oh I don't know about that. If a bunch of angry people assemble
peacefully, it wouldn't take much for them to stop being peaceful.
There are accelerationists who absolutely want to start a civil
war, but they're a fringe movement and giving them too much credit
is the same mistake as giving "Antifa" too much credit. IMO.

The BLM protestors are almost completely peaceful. It's groups

I respect anyone’s right to PEACEFULLY assemble and to protest.
(Between 9:00 am and 5:00 pm M-F, holidays excluded, not on
streets, must provide porta potties)
I don’t respect defacing or harming anyone’s property, public or
not. Burning, occupying etc.
I really don’t know what their cause is. Other than against
police brutality. That is a good cause.
Will setting fire to the police building help their cause?
I wonder if you can buy those rubber bullet claymore mines they
tested out on Jackass?
Perhaps install a fire suppression system under the awning of
your store but plumb it up to pepper spray.

Not trying to break lent, but I am lacking understanding.
What are the young white kids rioting about in Portland?
I am from Oregon, I remember protests in the 60s and 70s
over Vietnam.
I also remember a line of State Police walking through a
park downtown and busting heads of those that did not clear
out. Actually one of my first telco bosses had been one of
those State Bull Cops.
Are young white kids just aching for a chance at anarchy? I
don’t get it.
Misbehaving while trying to wrap some kind of noble cause
around you is pretty childish.
