Why are the cops so tough on some people?And so solicitous toward others?Maybe it’s obvious. Maybe the police are afraid of these guys because they are armed to the teeth. While these people are armed with nothing more than righteous indignation.Maybe it’s because these people are rude.And these people are courteous. Perhaps it’s because these people are rabble.While these people have friends in high places.It could be because these people are complaining about police misconduct.While these people just want death for politicians.Or that these people wave the flag.And these people don’t.I dunno. It’s such a conundrum. Really, it’s such a complex(ion) question.
A sometime journalist who used to string words together for a living before I retired to run a non-profit cycle touring organization that will henceforth go unnamed, as I have subsequently retired from that career as well.

If I still had a business card it would read: Ron Cunningham: Trained Observer Of The Human Condition. Because like The Donald, you know, ego.
