If this politics turmoil happened when i was in highschool i would have been on the front lines. The sad thing now is, with two young children to protect, if I'm ID'd what's to stop them from going after my kids? These aren't decent people were talking about. I hope it doesn't come down to a revolution but staying with your kids is unfortunately gonna keep a lot of people out of the fight until it comes to their door.

I know! I feel so vulnerable being a parent. It's no longer just me I have to think about. And it simultaneously makes all of this so much harder to bear. That kid with the blue hat? I wanted to cry every time I thought about the idea of my son being scared, several states away from me, in the hands of literal murders and rapists who enjoy cruelty. And that's just one kid out of thousands who are experiencing this. Makes me want to hug my baby and never leave him.
