And the media is complicit in this also. All the people who showed up at Ted Bundy's ranch with guns blazing were called "supporters" and the protestors in Ferguson were referred to as an "angry mob" on Saturday, 24 whole hours before any kind of looting started.

Sorry what is your point? Did you have one or nah?

(Apologies in advance for the bad joke)

Stop, you'll give me nightmares. Those months where it was a possibility were a dark time in our nation's history.
