There has already been a lot of unrest this year, and 2020 isn't over yet. There have been gun rights protests, lockdown protests, police abuse protests, arson, mob violence, and more. The election cycle is as divisive as ever, and people are pinning their prejudices on the major party candidates. November 4th could be messy.
Wherever you fall in these societal conflicts, I want to urge a few precautions:
I once heard someone say that your ends do not justify your means, but rather, your ends are contained within your means. You must choose means that can achieve the end you seek. This requires wisdom, something few pursue when passions are inflamed and anger boils over. Think now while you are relatively calm so you are mentally prepared for whatever comes down the road, and let's all hope I'm just a Chicken Little warning that "the sky is falling!"
I don't want to live in fear myself, and I encourage you to enjoy life as best you can despite economic upheavals, political conflicts, and governmental abuse. But try to be aware. If I'm off target with my warnings, by all means, comment below.
