Whether I find looting abhorrent, understandable, or a good idea should be irrelevant.

But when people are dying from governmental mismanagement and deliberate hatred of the likes of Derek Chauven, and Trump is Trump, no one can find it in them to say the words Lives Cannot?

That doesn't sound the the DU i grew up with.

Condemning the worse ill one does not excuse the other, it just shows perspective.
