It would be useful for all Board members to practice sober reflection that is, in turn, reflected in their posts. Of course, whether intended or not, one generic characteristic of boards such as this one is to allow for emotion-laden outpourings. Such boards also allow for a sometimes amusing lack of logic.

Afs, such lack of logic is manifested in part of your post quoted here: "So what you say is that since protesting eventually leads to looting, it is wrong to protest?"

The stream of SC's post ("what you say") should not have prompted your question.
