What happened to him was horrific, wrong, and disgusting. He definitely deserves justice... but like you, I do not agree with the riots and looting and destruction. A gas station in our city just announced that they are NOT re-opening after the looting. It's only causing damage. I stay silent about this all on social media because I have nothing new or helpful to add to the conversation. I didn't post a blacked out image on Tuesday because what does that do? I didn't feel it was helpful, nor did it do anything for George Floyd.StephTheBookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05340476943567585965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-27195982469127931152020-06-04T09:30:10.301-05:002020-06-04T09:30:10.301-05:00I've actively avoided Twitter in the past two ...I've actively avoided Twitter in the past two weeks, but I agree with most of these. On a lighter note, I'm also drinking my alcoholic beverages out of tumblers, mostly so my neighbors won't question why I'm day-drinking on a weekday when sitting out on my deck. And that is my favorite mascara as well! lil desiquahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12702603642296991017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-15807301755334459052020-06-03T16:53:31.472-05:002020-06-03T16:53:31.472-05:00It should come as no surprise that I agree.

I don't really associate myself with either party, and I 100% do not trust the media. There are so many emotions and opinions. Bottom line, I just wish everyone could be a decent human...you know? If we could all just be kind to each other, all our problems would be solved. It has been heart breaking watching our city be torn down. I have seen so many local businesses lost everything. People (white and black) who have worked their entire lives for their dreams...and now its gone.

All I ...I agree that being silent is not complicit. All I know for sure, it is a hot mess. I think we would all benefit from taking some time to QUIETLY think and analyze, before we respond. Are we responding for the right reasons, or only because other people, waiting to judge us, expect us to respond. If we are quiet it is easier to listen. I don't think just listening is enough, but just shouting, and the much worse that is so prevalent, isn't helpful or effective in changing anything.<br /><br />On a lighter note, I am craving regular trips to Target to just browse and buy things other than necessities.Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01769556455551856486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-61339348307886431772020-06-03T05:51:10.573-05:002020-06-03T05:51:10.573-05:00I have so many thoughts.

I don’t trust the media and there is so much political agenda out there. <br />Amy Scottnoreply@blogger.com
