      BLM was out in force, outside the RNC. People with children were intimidated, harassed, spit on, and threatened with violence as they walked to their vehicles. Children were forced to listen as the BLM members shouted about what they'd do to their mother's, this is not ok.

      Samuel E Definitely do not agree with destruction of any physical things that humans have built. One life can not be replaced no matter who they are. In the eyes of the laws of the USA, which is said to be free, is only free to the conditional mindset of certain individuals. This is not only a crime, it is a contradiction to all people. Not just one sided. Think about the physicality’s of the human body. If you open either of us we bleed the same color, meaning we are still be in the same with different views and one has been conditioned to think that they or superior to the other. It is inherently conditioned behavior and it needs to stop.

    How heartbreaking that a child that survived, a horrific event, feels the need to speak to hold adults accountable. The adults that should be handling these issues with responsibility.
    This needs to stop. We need to vote Trump and his goons out of the White House.
    Children should have the opportunity to enjoy and grow in their childhood
    Our people should be able to flourish without fearing for their safety.
    We need to look past our differences and create a better future for the next generation.
    We need to stand together.
    Gun violence must be halted. Racism must be removed. Education must be funded.

With young progressive voices like Aalayah's there may be a chance at a future.

      That's true. Gun access MUST become more restricted in order to stop these mass shootings.
      Personally I’d prefer if there were no guns, but I understand that’s not feasible when it’s such a lucrative industry in this Capitalist World.
      I also understand that guns are not the sole problem since there are countries where many people have guns but mass shootings are not common.

That citizen MUST pull out a gun And the person that cop has threatened to take out a gun and force the cop back. Should the cop request backup. So as the victim and citizen should request backup. Should a swat come through and military then let it be Gun vs Gun!
