[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get it OP, I do. This is a terrible tragedy. But can you see how it rings hollow, when gun violence kills many thousands more people - American citizens - and the GOP broadly seems to just sit on their hands about it? Would you be satisfied if we starting commenting that our thoughts and prayers are with this family - would that be enough action for you? I doubt it. If your concern is mortality secondary to illegal immigration, the data do not make a compelling case. [/quote] DP. Some people are justified in their states for being scared in their communities wondering if their law enforcement will protect them or if they are able to protect them for complicated issues right? (Ford is reported working on automated traffic police technology for this reason.) We are between a rock and a hard place. People feel they need to protect themselves for different reasons. I wish things were different. I wish we could spend the money we spend on incarcerating people on rehabiliating people or on health care. The social pressure doesn’t exist in our communities to keep neighbors, streets, blocks, towns, counties on the straight and narrow. When many of us find or create a hero for a slice of happiness, the other half of the population needs to rip our joy from our hearts and tell us how dumb we are for wanting to believe our society can be safer for all, that our relatives’ sacrifices for the country we love mean nothing. Until we can hear each others’ concerns, we are going to need some form of protection. In the old days, God *was enough* and hopefully we can get back there someday. [/quote]
