I do not have the time or the crayons to explain this in a way that you will understand.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

It's hard to watch a family member get jumped on by my friends for his stupid remarks. He brought it on himself and the convo needs to happen but shit is blowing up on my wall.

Try unfollowing the worst offenders and make a statement that enough is enough at some point.  Time to issue a warning.
I won't because the convos need to happen. People are learning even if they don't realize it yet.

My parents aren't big fans of Yoga because of the Hinduism elements involved

Somebody had a chance and they blew it.  Like a bully in high school pounding my face and saying; "Stop making me hit you."  Here it's "Stop making me MOCK you."  The amusement never ends!  BTW, I gave up crayons long ago.   8)

My crayon comment was not directed at anyone here. Something I kind of hatcheted together after too much time on the internet. Nothing more than humor was intended.

Going back now to trying to not interact with you as per your request.

The irony of Trump threatening to send in the military while criticising China for doing the same in Hong Kong.

This article is very good, written about the unrest in the US in the same style that arrest elsewhere in the world gets reported:

Obviously, the ones closely watching his mindspace are standing ready to apply checks and balances.

As with any executive officer, he has a lot of "tools" in his toolbox. The question boils down to something along the lines of, with all the things he could use to try to improve order, why is a large hammer the first thing he grabs out of his toolbox?

Many applauding some of his his results have also questioned his methods.
Trust me, there a great number of Constitution protecting folk waiting and watching from BOTH sides of our national political body in case any measures taken are left in place too long.

He is just a sitting president. He is not King.

Editorial content withstanding or not, that article kicks ass.
