That more outrage is expressed over “damaged property” than has been expressed over damaged lives embodies the moral vacuity of our society today. We’re told we don’t have the $ we’d need to assuage people’s suffering, yet how magically it appears if they dare to step out of line

compassion , empathy , and humanity seems to be in short supply or even missing in those with the most power, status, wealth methinks. Money seems to be what is valued over hearts and souls. We the people have that humanity, love and compassion. We just have little to no voice

It’s not so much that we don’t have a voice as that we have chosen not to use it for so long. There has been a chronic political disengagement of a part of too many, particularly when it comes to voting. It will make a huge difference when we change that hopefully on November 3.

Many of us out here have been struggling for years and years.. and voting hasn't helped us a single bit. Our government doesn't seem to care whether we live or die. They are more interested in making money and serving their billionaire/corporate donors.

more people have died from other "protestors" than police killed unarmed black persons last year, which was 13. There was also 89 officers killed in the line of duty last year alone, 48 of which due to felonious acts. but yes police are the problem, not all the stupid people.

You think the damaged property is getting more attention than the police abuse? Really?

Bruh more people have died because of "protesters" than the police.
