    • Good point justwannafindmytrue. Which in turn raises the question that many people of race and like minds have brought up lately, DO WE REALLY LIVE IN A DEMOCRACY ANYMORE? According to your analysis, we clearly don't!! The government is supposed to serve the people, not vice-versa!

    • Rioting is definitely not the answer, it never is, but there really isn't much anyone can do, i mean you can protest until your blue in the face, but it wont make a difference, the people have no power in this situation which is sad, considering we live in a democracy. I really wish there was something to be done that would make a difference but the government makes the rules and when it decides something there isn't much that can be done to change it.
