Oops ... well, sorry, but if you&#x27;re harmed as a result of our mob&#x27;s mistake, no hard feelings, right? Right?

I&#x27;m so happy to see action from those outside of those immediately affected. There&#x27;s clearly a problem in the U.S. and whats worse is that the general public doesn&#x27;t believe a problem exists due to the fact that president happens to be black. Problems can be hard to solve but its nearly impossible when people don&#x27;t see it to begin with. They way this particular event happened is sad but I personally hope this opens up a much larger discussion and one that doesn&#x27;t die down.
