Jesus Christ - I don't care what party you belong to, no leader should be encouraging violence in what is already a volatile situation.
I'm not condoning or rationalizing looting - it is clearly a disgusting thing to do, and perpetuates the very same stereotypes that black leaders are trying to fight. But encouraging people to be shot? That's going to be the tipping point where we go from protests to all out riots.
Reading the headlines has me checking the date to see if we are really living in the year 2020. Somehow we have regressed and are looking for reasons to hate each other at every turn (different race, face mask vs. no face mask, democrat vs. republican etc.).
This is getting scary.
