We need better leadership

Correct.

Execution of 2. Know where that guy's going.

Prior lack of support by the mayor. Recent films showing hoards yelling for the murder of cops.

Sickening

Might sounds harsh call a spade a spade, blood is on many people's hand
especially the mayor and two others we all know who they are.

This was a sickening, cowardly, and tragic event. Unfortunately, it's the World we live in today. I don't fear for me, but my two sons who are just starting their lives in this very confused, and bizarre World. I simply don't understand it, and I fear it is only going to get worse....

I share your concern. As an aside, people like Ray Kurzweil who think we are headed for some sort of utopia just because the number of transistors on an integrated circuit doubles every two years (Moore's Law) ought to rethink things, because for all our remarkable advances in science, medicine, and technology, human nature if anything seems to be worsening. End of OT rant.

I would argue that it has always been this way; we just see more evidence of the wickedness of human nature because of advancements in communication.

Maybe Daryl, but on the other hand mass violence (e.g. school shootings) seems significantly on the rise compared to my idyllic (if sheltered) youth.
