First of all, I'd like to get a Hawaiian shirt with "BLM" printed in big letters across the back. x.x I swear... !

As long as people (as a whole) love peace more than war, peace will always win. The reason the price is always so steep is because anger makes us blind to logic. If you punch someone in the face, maybe they'll stop shouting at or insulting you, but there's no guarantee he won't blow your head off. And killing somebody might stop them from killing you, but there's no guarantee his family or friends won't be offended and do the same to you. That pattern will only escalate. Power doesn't create evil, but it does draw corrupt people like death draws flies. And respect from fear is an illusion. The only way to end violence is to stop being violent.

None of that is meant to imply that protest isn't useful or necessary. A demonstration of peaceful protest is like a natural vote! If we all speak up with the same message, the majority has to rule. You can't always win with words or flowers when those in power refuse to listen, but riots, vandalism, and looting are childish and accomplish nothing but pain and fear, and to all the wrong people. We can do better.

That's all this old wolf has to say.
