We got to this point because our betters decided that we couldn’t handle what would come from destroying the corruption.

Now, our betters are saying we can’t handle seeing the corruption.

Wanna guess what will come from that?

We already know this pattern as we’ve been here before.

It is not a question of our 'betters' allowing or not allowing something. We are a REPUBLIC. We don't have 'betters'. The people don't rule directly. That is Democracy/ Mobocracy. We rule through our elected representatives.

Again, just because YOU can handle the knowledge of evil acts, that doesn't mean that others who can't. The protecting the innocent is one of the primary duties of our elected representatives.

Neither you, nor I have the right to inflict harm of others for our own personal satisfaction. Having to deal with such matters is one of the big downsides to elective office.
