I looked for one and didn't see one. I don't want to start a war here or a politico piece, but I'm sad about the violence that has taken over the city I used to live in. It is a great city, for the most part. I didn't live anywhere near Ferguson, but I did live where the other shooting took place and where the secondary protests/lootings are happenings. There are so many great things about the city; I'm afraid this will set it back the way Detroit was, etc.
I see why the grand jury found no fault, but I also see why people are so pissed. I get it, it's more about the relationship to the police in that town than a straight white/black line. It's about more than race. People have a right to be angry and there is no good outlet for the anger.
I dunno. I'm just in a funk today seeing the pictures, reading about my friends on facebook. I could just use some hugs I guess.

No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.
