Tension builds.... New York Let's wake up. I saw that some of the protests over the weekend became violent, and some people were injured. That is NOT the way to show your support for the growing issues between NYPD and Civilians. When all is said and done, if you commit a crime, the very police you are protesting now have the law on their side, and will come to arrest you. When you destroy buildings, property, and establishments, guess what? you just financed the very city you are trying to tear down. Why? In order to keep the peace, more officers, buildings now need to be inspected by Dept of Buildings, courts now need more staff to provide for the influx of protesters, and until they do have adequate staff YOU the protester turned rioter are now in a holding cell someplace. The ones hit hardest are the dying breed of mom and pop stores that are struggling to get by. People please the best way to bring your point across is to vote. Be a part of your community, speak peace. Lend a hand. Don't allow past actions affect your future. If you have a record, you make it difficult to be employable, keeping you under the poverty level. Very few people in comparison to people without records, are successful. Granted that can't define you, and there are some people who have been Blessed with some success, but they will tell you they would have preferred another way. We as a whole need to teach our children. Respect God, yourself, and the law. It works. If the law is not on your side, there are ways to make it so PRODUCTIVELY. Be safe. Much love to all my readers.
