I wonder how the author would feel if her home was looted?

Any funding that Congress passes has to be signed by a president.

This person doesn't understand civilization and culture.

As I posted in another thread:


Western European surnames are often based on occupations: Baker, Butcher, Butler, Carpenter, Cook, Cooper, Fisher, Gardner, Hunter, Mason, Miller, Potter, Smith, Tailor, Wheeler, Wood...

Families passed down their customs to the next generation. Towns only had enough population to support a few hunters/fishers and a butcher, a few farmers/gardeners and a cook, a carpenter and a mason, a cooper and a smith, a miller and a baker...


Their occupations became their identities and their role in society.

If somebody burned down someone's bakery and they were the only baker in town, their life as "the baker" is gone. Hosting the town's casual meeting place at "the bakery" is gone. Their legacy of passing down the role of "baker" to their children is gone.

People's life work, no, their ancestors' legacy work, is gone when a stranger deems that it's only "property" so it's okay to burn it down for a cause having no relation to the owner.

Proof liberals in power endorse the violence.
