I think it's important to note that I am all for the blacklivesmatter movement. I don't want anyone to think that I dont care. I have family who is effected.
I just want to say that I am an empath. I have so much love for all kinds of people. To see a specific race targeted and attacked is a lot for me to take as I take on the pain of others. I may not understand being in that situation itself but I understand the hurt coming from it. I've been taking a step back from social media but I still stand with everyone in the movement.
Im not a very political person but I cannot stand to see so many people hurt and not get justice. I really hope we see a change soon.

It’s truly a monumental moment. I proudly marched against racial economic inequality and the Vietnam War in Washington D.C. in the 1970’s. Sadly I’m not physically able to sustain a full day of protest these days, but I did participate for a few hours in my town over this past weekend... that is until some fools went all crazy looting a shopping mall, then it got ugly and I bailed out. I’m watching as today’s activities unfold into another night of imposed curfew and pray that the message doesn’t get drowned out by more senseless violence.

@robertbluesman I'm not physically able to go so I get that. It's a lot to take in, that's for sure. Tonight was an important night where I live. There was finally some peace. I hope that people understand the message that is trying to come across. I also hope that those people don't get sick. I've been so worried about that.
