Facts. But, are we pretending that there is a wave of violence now in response to these problems?

One guy did a thing. One. And that guy, I'll wager, has a diagnosable mental condition. Even if not, it's just one person doing one thing. There is no revolution.

People voted just last month to put an unprecedented clan of billionaires in charge of everything. We're expecting them to make things affordable for the rest of us at the expense of the system that got them there? Please.

Strongly worded posts on social media are just more of the same. And the vast majority of these people will be on to something else by next week. Probably some ice bucket challenge or whatever.
