I am reminded of the non r...hard question, Marian. I am reminded of the non resistance of the protesters in India over the salt tax, and how they stepped up to the guards who proceeded to bash them over the head. The line is very thin between a non violent protest or vigil, and the need to keep oneself from being killed. I am thinking also of Kent State where the young people who were protesting, were killed. I don't really think,either that the civil war was really settled, those who believed in white supremacy then, still believe it now. Trump, who himself is a supremacist has given his compatriots the green light to take over the streets to impose their views by way of the club and gun. A measured response is difficult to say the least. Will it go away? I don't think so, we have stepped too far over the line to go back over it. I fear a return to the 1960's - sigh!! Thank you for this column, it gives perspective to the mind set behind the two kinds of possible responses to this terrible problem.Audrey Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01988689336865130612noreply@blogger.com
