It's not about 'solving' anything. It's an expression of deep, inexorable anger and sorrow that their people are being murdered in the streets and literally nothing is happening in response.

To steal an idea from idiots who use it to defend police brutality: if you push someone enough, eventually they'll snap.

On twitter from some Americans there is more outrage about protesters burning the American flag than there is about innocent black lives being taken. Probably an unpopular opinion but i am glad they burnt it.

We can only hope that the American people soon learn that they've made a mistake to defend Wilson.

He means the media of his choosing, so not that damn liberal media.

I saw this on Twitter and had a "laugh to keep from crying" moment. It's so sadly accurate.

I promise, I'm not. here's a live feed if you want: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bassem…

I hate everyone that spreads the false shit, too. This I can actually hear from my porch.

I have that light too. Don't use it too late in the day or you won't be able to sleep.

During high school I washed dishes in what passed for a fancy seafood restaurant in my outer-borough neighborhood. The entrees came out with a twice-baked potato and a little mini-bowl of vegetables. The owner instructed us that if potato or vegetable came back untouched we were to give it to the cook so he could…

These are all so good, and reminds of this time in Italy (here comes a customer perspective story):

People with food allergies are allowed to be picky. And regardless, that doesn't excuse her demanding that a customer clean the bathroom.

My first husband was an alcoholic. I finally told him that I had given up on him getting sober, and that I was now deciding whether or not I wanted to stay married to a drunk. Then he got sober and things didn't get better, just differently bad.

For reals, if the future Mrs Pipper has a thriving career that outstrips mine in earning potential, you'd bet I'd stay home if we don't need two incomes. Going home and being a family man...
