You get what you pay for. That mayor is worthless, apparently her role model is Neville Chamberlain, if she bent any father back she'd be doing the limbo.

Honestly, I’m definitely an individualist. I see black people complaining about white silence, and other black people complaining about too many white people speaking up on this issue. You’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t. I just treat everyone I encounter with respect and kindness except on the rare occasion when I’m irritated about something they did (usually on the road). Even then, I’m just annoyed and have a long fuse, but once it’s lit it burns out pretty fast. I just don’t stay mad very long.
I obey the Golden Rule, mind my own business, live and let live.

Don’t do illegal stuff, and the police won’t come after you. Simple concept, huh?
I have no sympathy for criminals, Obey The Law, and Cops will usually leave you alone. If you do interact with them, treat them with respect and they will respect you. I am always polite to people who have guns. Every person I meet at a gun range is always polite.

For starters, I am not a social media guy, with no FB or Twitter accts.

That said, if you allow a revolution to occur while you idly stand by, you have no one to blame but yourself if you do not like how it turns out.

If I had to guess, many white people are not going to risk saying anything that could be taken the wrong way, and risk their job or be labeled a ____ist, ____phobe. They know the leftist mob will try to shout down their viewpoint that way, so why risk it.
