So my daughter wants to participate in a BLM protest.... UPDATE

[Happy Hoosier]

9. We've protested together before.

She cares politically, and when she goes to college this fall, her goal is to be a Human Rights lawyer, or to work for a politically progressive political leader (or even to run for office some day).

I am very proud of her. And I support her desire. She is aware of the possible consequences and assures me she still wants to do it.

So far, our local cops have facilitated demonstrations, with only a few tense moments, but I am still concerned since these things seem to be able to go from completely peaceful, even amicable, to rubber bullets in a matter of seconds.
