Sorry meant to reply earlier been a hot ass weekend, we've literally living in the pool this weekend lol.
The only reason I brought you into it was because of your post about the Dallas shooting when you said violence isn't the answer. I should have elaborated. My issue with the "both sides" argument is that promotes the notion that:
1. Both sides are equally powerful which they are not
2. That both sides are in fact doing the an equal amount of violence
3. That both sides have the disdain for one another
While I don't agree with killing innocent people one has to admit that this was logical conclusion of years of unchecked brutality especially in country where there are more guns than people.
No one should be surprised by this and the solution isn't telling both sides to cool down and talk things out. That's a misleading misnomer as if "both sides" are arguing similar points. Basically a lot of this shit can be mitigated by simply holding people accountable instead of treating certain people as if their lives are completely disposable and then expecting them to swallow that shit.
Holding people accountable has been the conversation.
