The Brain of an Artist

why does tear gas have to be involved? Can’t people protest and stand up for what they believe in to promote social change? In a safe environment?

Does this mean America is not the land of the free and full of people with voices, but of one government that wants to hurt the people who want to see things change?

If this isn’t an indicator that something needs to get resolved in politics and government, I don’t know what is.

Regardless on how you feel about this topic: PEOPLE IN WASHINGTON NEED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. IT’S THEIR DUTY. The people of this nation are asking for change. Now it’s up to them to do something about it.
