We all have differences. Some want vanilla and some want chocolate and some prefer strawberry. I don't think we need to grab our guns and start shooting because of that.

I think black lives matter and I will argue my case for that but I will not shoot anyone regardless of whether or not they agree with me. Nor will I riot/burn/destroy for any cause or support any of that.

These people who riot/burn/destroy/kill are not going to accomplish anything good.

Even if you turn that message sideways it tells me the same thing, we need a solution for that. A solution for everyone.
