For all the people who are in a perpetual uproar over the American injustices and inequalities they rage against, please, funnel your energies with a bit more consistency. You voices are loud, but your actions...?
Studies that research generosity show by region and voting patterns that people who are the most generous people populate certain areas known for, you guessed it, being conservative. There is no law against opening up your own wallet and addressing areas you are concerned about, that would speak a lot louder than the hate speech that floods the media these days.
You want to open to the borders of our nations and you want sanctuary cities to continue, how about leaving your car unlocked or your home? Sounds insane, I know. You do have borders you recognize and expect others to respect, so please stop pretending like your entire world is open and free. You have lines drawn, they may not be the same as others, but you have them.
You think contemporary protesters who loot, burn, and vandalize major cities are on the side of truth and justice and that the vast minority of bad police officers represent the majority of police forces, which justifies the behavior of the protesters. All the while innocent business owners watch their hard work destroyed and demolished by people who apparently are unemployed, after all who has this much free time on their hands to "protest"? Every economist will tell you, the driving force behind the American economy is small business. The people who are suffering the brunt end of these "protests" are small businesses who have their storefronts smashed, and their merchandise stolen. I'm not sure how cheering this on displays care and concern for society.
If you really care about making a change, do the hard work of building something up, rather than tearing down the structure that enables you to even have the rights and privileges to complain. Go serve in a soup kitchen instead of vandalizing restaurants or watching/approving of others who vandalize them. Tutor minorities who need mentors and structure in their lives, instead of endorsing brutality against the police, who by the way have sacrificed a lot to keep rough neighborhoods as as safe as they can. Help find ways to eliminate illiteracy instead of grinning while people willingly let the libraries burn.
As it is now, all of your negativity, gratuitous rioting, empty rhetoric and petty diatribes merely show the rest of us how little you really care about improving the world. Change our minds and show us you really do care.
