Pandemic Must be Gone....Now it's time for a Race War

Well, I got to say the year 2020 is definitely one for the books.  They tried to impeach the President in January...it didn't work.  They tried to shut down the economy through the end of the year, with the Pandemic, it wasn't working.  The country was just about to open back up when this person, who was a cop at the time, murdered a black man who was in custody and who wasn't resisting.  We watched it on video. The man had no remorse. He sat on this man's neck for almost 10 minutes.  Even after he stopped moving, he continued to sit on him.  The man died.  It was a horrible way to die.  At one point he called for him mom.  It breaks my heart. 

The black community has every right to be upset.  The entire country was upset with them. Everybody stood up to call for change.....but then!!!  Then peaceful protesters turned into people who want to riot.  I don't know who paid who to start the riots, or if anybody even did. Democrats say it is right-winged people starting a Race War....Republicans are saying Democrats are trying one last ditch effort to get President Trump out of the White House.  People are being injured and killed. Streets are being blocked, trucks are getting ransacked, stores are being looted, houses and business, and churches are being burned to the ground.  Cops who had nothing to do with these incidents are being injured and killed. When is enough enough??

Somebody on Facebook posted this:

"If someone murdered my son in cold blood while he begged for his life and I knew there was little chance that justice would ever be served, I'd want to burn the world down too. I'd want everyone to burn it down with me. I'd want every single person across the country to feel and see my rage and my pain. I would set fire to everything until I was heard....until EVERYONE in the country cared enough to stop turning a blind eye to these injustices or making excuses for them.
I'd burn it all the way down.
I'm not saying it's right.
I'm saying I understand."

I started to respond with this message....but I stopped myself. It isn't worth it.

I don't want to argue against this statement, because I can see the point, but George Floyd's family does not want the whole world burnt down. They want all of this to stop. They absolutely have the right to feel the rage and pain and ache for everybody in the country to care, but when does it stop? After they burn every city down? After they have beaten, maimed or killed a hundred, a thousand, a million people in their rage? After they have stolen all of the shoes, clothing, and electronics that they can handle? Those who are peacefully protesting were getting their voices heard, but those who are choosing to riot in the other ways are making it hard to hear the voices of those begging for change. They (the people who are rioting) are hurting the cause more than they are helping it.

We are being divided. If you don't choose a side you are criticized. You are called a racist. If you do pick a side, you risk losing friends...depending on which side you take, there will always be somebody who no longer wants anything to do with you. Sisters are fighting against sisters. Sons and fathers and/or mother are divided. Neighbors and friends, social media acquaintances and groups are divided. I am so tired of all of it. These are definitely the end times. Come Jesus Come!
