I hope not. If we do, we all lose. But I fear that many folks are getting fed up with the bull that is going around. Too many emotions and not enough thinking. Hopefully calmer heads will prevail, but I don't see it coming from any of our current leaders.

What "current leaders"? Just because a person has rank, whether it be corporal or President, doesn't make them a leader. It only gives them authority.

CPT Jack Durish - Yes, authority with no accountability. That is what teamwork has evolved into. Make everyone part of decisions driven by those "leaders" so that no individual is held accountable. The Captain no longer goes down with his/her ship.

I'm not with Black Lives matter and I will side with the police for this question. But I think it was best answered by Newt Gingrich recently when he said and I am paraphrasing that we whites ought to think what it is like being black and being stopped by the police. I have given that a lot of thought lately and it is something that is very troubling IMHO

I think that is all most of us ask, for you just to consider the possibly and imagine what My children have to go through when stopped by Police. Then maybe we can bridge the Gap and make things better.

TSgt Craig Crews - Ok but being white was not a walk in the park in CA. We were targeted not by the police but by illegals. A few illegals thought I was an easy target but they got a big surprise.

"Become a part of the solution. Serve your communities. Don't be a part of the problem. We're hiring. Get off that protest line and put an application in, and we'll put you in your neighborhood and we will help you resolve some of the problems you're protesting about." —Dallas Police Chief David Brown
