The video makes a very powerful arguement
Unfortunately open borders libs who need to see it are the least likely to watch
And if some libs do watch most of them are far too stuborn to change their minds
V n V;; Lord almighty.. I am from the UK so when it comes to the affairs of the USA I do not have as much inside knowledge of the happenings going on there apart with my friends that live there. But from an outsider's perspective I can certainly tell you that these 'peaceful' protests are horrifying. Today I watched a video of a young man with a hidden camera, perhaps my age or older being assaulted and even at one point kicked and punched all because he was a Trump supporter in a protest with Hilary supporters. He was literally chased off, attacked for simply wearing a hat with Trump's name on it. I was so terrified that he could have died. I wanted to jump in there and help him out of that situation and I thank god that he got away. I have also watched videos on black lives matter 'peaceful' protests. And these too are very frightening. These protests are becoming the grounds of rioters with no regard for anyone but themselves, committing to the acts they are so apparently against. (Ex. Racism, sexist, violence, murder, vandalism, obstruction of human rights and hatred.) The message that was meant to be portrayed has been ruined by these acts and they only have themselves to blame. You would think people would learn from how feminism has changed for the worst and learn not to repeat the same mistakes. But alas, no matter political leanings and such, people can be narrow minded and stubborn. Surface values be voided. (Ex. Race, gender, sexuality, financial standing, political leaning and religious/non-religious standing.)
With this knowledge, I am sad. A part of me feels great privilege to not be in the USA surrounded by all this dangerous, destruction and chaos. But the other part of me wishes to be there to combat it. It is madness and counter-productive at all fronts. It is so backwards in thought that Politics aside, people are killing each other, people are causing chaos, people are defying the law that stands to protect, people are not helping themselves with this savagery. I look back on history and all the terrible things that have happened and the ways these problems were solved. I also look back on the things, our generation surface values aside, are privileged to have when our parents, grandparents and further back did not have what we have today. We are privileged to have the technology we have, the medicine, the schools, the transport, the homes we have. We are privileged to have better health care, better human rights, better jobs... We are privileged to be able to walk around and not be killed for how diverse we are. Things are better for us, not all the way but they are better. And all this infighting, all this concentration on groups of people rather than the masses is ruining these privileges that all of our families fought for and died for. Whether it started from home or on the battlefield. People died for the privileges we all have today and it is unacceptable to see all of it being ruined by people that can't see past themselves or history. History can not be changed, you can disagree with it until you are blue in the face but things are written in stone and the only way to make things better is not to repeat it-- to do what everyone in the past could not or would not. And we can't do it fighting against each other.
Surely any rational, mortal, emphatic person can understand this. Who needs war abroad when it is happening on our door steps?
