A Dark Day

I have utter disgust for anyone that shoots a cop. Everyone has a right to protest and free speech. When that protest turns to masks and hidden faces to avoid prosecution, throwing of any dangerous object or weapons of any kind, then your rights end.

At that point in time, any method used by police to quell violence is fair. When things get out of control, take away any bull horn used to egg on the protesters, arrest anyone wearing a mask or wearing a hoodie with the top up, and any other means necessary to stop the violence.

This includes rubber bullets, tear gas, water hoses and, if necessary, police discharging their firearms. I'm fed up with a group that constitutes less than 15% of the nation's population causing so many problems.

Printable Things I Never Told You: 1) Lust is not real love and Domino's is not real pizza but both are fine when you're drunk. 2) You know you're a redneck when you take your dog for a walk and you both use the same tree. 3) I do not Twitter or tweet although I once slept with a lovely English bird who chirped. 4) I'm not saying that the girl I met last Friday was slow, but she thought Gazpacho was Pinocchio's father. 5) I went to the doctor because of water on the knee and he said, "You're not aiming straight.".....and that's five !
