Police should behave responsibly. The protest shouldn’t have had to happen in the first place. We can all agree on that.
The world is so fucked up that I HAVE to look for the “at least” and “bright” things, otherwise I’ll go insane. Some of us joke about serious things. Some of us rely on other methods. Either way, facing the enormity of the horrors surrounding us without any kind of coping mechanism is just too much.
By all means step away and take good care of yourself when it gets too intense. It’s necessary at times. But comments like that just don’t belong here. We can’t ask victims to help us derail their stories so we can process our difficulties reading them. Let’s keep this about them and not make it about ourselves.
There is no “bright” side to this. No “at least”. And this is a story about a real human being, not an entertainment piece to draw irony from.
