I echo all of this, but with an important caveat, that together we can change things for the better. Don't let our fear crumple us into not acting at all, but instead focusing on what needs to be done. We should all be resolute in making a better tomorrow, and that means showing up at every election, every option we have to voice our opinions. The only reason one side shows up everywhere is because they are the loudest. We have to prove that we are the silent majority, we must show up in November, and every federal, state, and local election.
Perfectly said! No need to be all sad n depressed (like I was today) due to events like these. Do what needs to be done. Know that u r not alone in doing this. There r many many people working to make the world a better place. Have trust in them.
