ELECTION 2020

[aussiefriend]

Nothing says patriotism like a nice riot or church burning or stopping traffic at rush hour. The real show of patriotism is the toppling of statues and writing graffiti on walls of private businesses.

oh please, their protests are legitimate. Their actions then brought up discussions here on the morning talk shows and news here, where 1 former Prime Minister statue was defaced and had to be covered up. Also other symbols of early aristocracy those statues that were involved in the killing of the indigenous people have also had graffiti sprayed on them. 

It's analyzing and taking notice of what they are saying. The statues represent pain for some of your fellow countrymen from all walks of life. They want the world and your country to stand up and take notice. I have to say it is working.

I really didn't realize all this shit was going down in the USA like this, and that was the status quo. These incidents keeps the spotlight on the issue and forces change. It's not comfortable. You can't keep oppressing certain parts of your low socioeconomic population because they have more melanin in their skin than you.

The thing is, helping others, accepting others is beneficial not just to the recipients but the community on the whole and can change peoples lives. I am not saying you hang with gun toting drug dealers. Many people chose a dark path, but for those who want to better themselves, we should be a light of hope for them.
