“We are oft to blame in this, - / ‘Tis too much proved - that with devotion’s visage/ And pious action we do sugar o’er/ The devil himself.”
And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn’t there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who’s to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you’re looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

It’s sad how accurate this statement is. Fine them for their misdemeanor crimes, but to flash bomb and pepper spray them ?
That just goes too far.
