The double standards and division in the country is pathetic. It represents bone-headed unwillingness to understand anybody else's point of view, anybody else's concerns, anybody else's rights. The perfect example is those folks who criticize Pres. Trump for not naming White Supremacists but support President Obama for not naming Muslim Extremists. Both are bad, no matter what your politics. How about the media not fomenting situations that might simply go away without the spotlight? Don't they have a responsibility not to pour gasoline on a spark? The original protest was against the removal of a General Robert E. Lee statue. Left alone, they could have exercised their right to peaceful protest and gone home. They have that right whether we believe in their position or we don't.
