I've seen, through social media, how so many people are angry, enraged and disgusted at what going on in Baltimore. And as well they should. We all should be outraged at a group of people breaking windows and taking things that aren't theirs.
I just have to wonder, where is there outrage about another group of people breaking a human being's spine and taking his life as a result? Especially when that group is supposed to protect and serve us.
I dont say this as a reason or excuse for the rioting. I say it because it astounds me that there could be more outrage over broken windows, burned buildings and looting stores than over a broken spine, denial of medical care and death of a man in police custody.
One does not justify the other. Unfortunately, I think one will only exacerbate the other.
