Anyone else awake, and reflecting on everything that has happened in the last 90 days? And feeling it’s surreal (it’s very real) or fleeting (it’s here to stay for a long while), or there’s a complete and utter lack of elected leadership on all sides (yup!)? Hang in there, for we know history shows us we have overcome a lot before us, and we will prevail in these times too, even though most of us may have never seen such times in our lifetime.

It’s an odd no man’s land isn’t it? Seems like a fever dream of a completely fantastical scenario that I cannot seem to wake up from. Yet the pain and suffering of so many is all too real. We must continue to put one foot in front of the other, and be helpful, patient, kind. That is our choice!

People are bored because they have nothing to do and many don’t have jobs anymore and anarchists are taking advantage of that. If you bring in the military and shut things down, the anarchists will say “See, the government doesn’t care about black people and they want to control you like the fascists they are.” If the government allows the protests, anarchists will take advantage of the leniency by starting riots and looting. They’ll say that this is what the government gets for being evil (not fascist enough? Doesn’t really make sense but hey, that’s anarchists for you, they just want to watch the world burn). So what are politicians to do? We need to say “Ok protestors, we hear you and we’ll work on being better and having conversations in the near future, but right now we need to shut this all down before some Batman Begins League of Shadows stuff happens”
