No, not every event. Just the ones that give the impression that there is an ongoing systemic abuse of the very rights and principles that America is founded on.

The fact that you brush this off as unimportant is exactly the problem here.

"The fact that you brush this off as unimportant is exactly the problem here."

And how does "absurd, overblown, and counter-productive" (my words) translate into "unimportant"?

The words of politicians are generally unimportant, as they are easy to come by and seldom backed by action. That was my point. Must I too engage in today's Two Minutes' Hate to pacify the Outrage Patrol?
