    <p>And don't forget the Red WoMen...   we've been doing strikes on
      them since 1492.   The <a moz-do-not-send="true"

        Spike</a> might have been (mostly) unintentional but the results
      were devastating.   <br>
    </p>
    <p>Some will call this "liberal self-hatred" or "identity politics"
      but I'm happy to see those who have been categorically
      abused/neglected/dismissed standing up for themselves and those of
      us who have not-so-much standing up with them.   <br>
    </p>
    <p>The difference between these "protests" even when they look more
      like "rioting, looting, and vandalism" is that I see a LOT of
      diversity (both ethnicity and gender) in the crowds, no strong
      sense that there is any significant threat between protesters, and
      almost exclusively the violence from protesters against the LEO
      are  in response to the intended intimidating show of force (often
      directed violence against the protestors).  The examples from all
      over the country of LEO marching/kneeling/mingling with the
      protestors seem exclusively positive.  *most* protestors are not
      protesting against LEO himself, but against the abuses that are
      systemic and the tragedies that come with that.   <br>
    </p>
    <p>I know there will be (already have been) "collateral damage" but
      somehow this round feels more good/less bad than previous ones.

    <p>Or maybe I'm just getting old and soft hearted(headed).</p>
