I stand with Pastor Hickman.
It was supposed to be a unit to house senior in need. We complain about churches not doing enough but this church was stepping up to make a difference for seniors in their own community. How sad is this?

My logical understanding of what happens when authorities continuously keep their foot on the necks of the underprivileged keeps me from doing so. This is in no way condoning the violence and destruction that has occurred. But I can't see how so many can be flabbergasted that this happens time and again as voices go unheard. As a mother, I know what it was like when my own teens felt their voices were unheard, and I was not shocked when it happened.
I have empathy toward quite a few affected by this, but no, I cannot stand with one single person.
I hope this is taken in the manner it was intended. Thank you

That said, I'm "sad" about a whole bunch of things in this situation.
