I think it is perfectly okay to protest but I’ve seen videos of major violence towards police and bystanders by rioters. There was a video I saw of rioters pulling innocent people out of their cars simply because they were driving past. As well as rioters going after police that are trying to keep the peace by using very minimal riot control. Now, when the police use tear gas and such at peaceful protests then I get angry, but if the rioters are being violent to the police then they have a right to try and break up the riot.

Hate on this post if you want, but really, violence to stop violence?

I just don’t agree with some of the ways the police AND rioters are both going about this.

Resilient
1. (of a person or animal) able to withstand or recover quickly from difficult conditions.
2. (of a substance or object) able to recoil or spring back into shape after bending, stretching, or being compressed.

We all possess resilience, we just need to realize it.
