Yes....I see anguished angry people. They have every right to be. Can't imagine losing my son....I'd be just as pissed off as they were...Some people express grief aggrssively and some just grieve silently.

I just take exception to taking out one's anger on an innocent person and dehumanizing them. Whats the limit???

My sense is that people feel the police/teachers (thats me)/doctors/retaurant staff are fair game for any kind of aggressive/angry behavior. I've just seen too much of it at the inner city school i've taught in for so long.

My mixed race son (21 now) experienced his share of racial bs in his high school but he never went off on the race curious students that screwed with him....I taught him differently.

Thanks Kennardo for the thoughful civilized response. It gives me something to think about.paz
