What can be said?

It is currently a very volatile time in the U.S.A. For months the Corona virus dominated the news. Over 100,000 citizens dead, and the numbers keep rising. It is certainly not over, yet another crisis has taken over the news cycle. People are taking to the streets to protest the killing of George Floyd, who died after a police officer knelt on his neck for 8 minutes and 45 seconds for the crime of passing a counterfeit $20 dollar bill. This is documented on video. If there is another side of the story, it has not been published yet.
  Our cities have been shut down by the protests. Many people have been gathering peacefully, but violence and looting has been happening on a nightly basis. The protests seem to be a gathering of groups with different agendas. Some people just want their voices heard, and others just want to create chaos. Certainly this is a too simplistic take on things, but it's a start. As Americans we have to learn to communicate with each other. A little respect will also help. These are tough times, but this country has been through tough times before. We will get through this.  Stay safe everyone.
