For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

So count the death and destruction caused by these riots as part of the cost of this shutdown. Anarchy in reaction to the shutdown was totally predictable. History will be about as kind to the shutdown as it is to the Treaty of Versailles."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

The shutdown has caused these riots to be a lot worse than they would have been. We take away the jobs of the poor, take away their work for two months, take away their means of income, cage them up in their homes and apartments...what did we expect? THe riots and looting are not being done by the peaceful protesters but by the people that have been cooped up for the past couple months and are at the end of their rope.I'm like LeBron James.

Oops, not a good look.
Well, I guess that explains why he didn't want the national guard's help.

So if you get disbarred do you still have to pay back that student loan for your Princeton law education?
Two lawyers hit with federal charges for throwing Molotov cocktail at NYPD car
A pair of Brooklyn lawyers are facing federal charges for throwing a Molotov cocktail into a New York Police Department cruiser during riots following the death of George Floyd in police custody.
Colinford Mattis, 32, a Princeton graduate and member of a New York community board, and Urooj Rahman, 31, a lawyer and Fordham alumnus who recently lost her job, were arrested and charged with attempting to damage or destroy law-enforcement vehicles on Saturday after a surveillance camera recorded the incident.
“Molotov Cocktails are violent tools of individuals looking to inflict harm and damage our city. Crimes like these are devastating to their targets and also to the protestors and their right to free speech that police are working hard to protect,” NYPD Commissioner Dermot F. Shea said in a Department of Justice press release. “I’m confident that the severest penalties under the law will be sought.”
Mattis was allegedly driving a van with Rahman around 1 a.m. Saturday, when she threw the Molotov cocktail at an empty NYPD car. The gasoline-filled bottle failed to ignite, and the two fled, according to the New York Daily News. The two were arrested soon after, and police reportedly found materials in the van to make an explosive.

Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."
