Been happening for six years.  Who are all the hoods rioting?  Destroying their own neighborhoods?  Oh...that's right, they're Communists and agitators from all over the country, come to destroy and create chaos.

Stop whining Mr. Markle -- When it comes to destroying and creating chaos, you can beat our militarized police forces backed up by National Guard troopers.

Here's an idea, why doesn't the government contract out policing all cities to some worthy corporation -- perhaps McDonald's or AT&T?

Then, just as they did by getting rid of the draft, our fetid government could claim they had nothing to do with a few massacres of protestors, should they occur.  

I'm sure you will want to help sell such a program, right Markle?

We all fall back into traps and chains we should have long ago released.  

Quite sickening to see the resurfacing of what has been lying beneath.  

It takes a daily focus and direction to "do unto others."  

I would wipe the broad brush and say we are in a sad state but I like to think people are overcomers.  

One can dwell on the rage or one can make the steps in their own life to change and as you make the changes take the hand of someone and pull them up.

I'll step down from the pollyanna platform but I do believe change begins individually.

That's why I've never given over to the "it was my mother's fault" mentality.  We can live burdened or we can let things go.  (Insert Frozen song)

People have been overly wronged throughout time.  Perserverance is key and not letting the circumstances define you.
