It's one dimensional day today!

That means, everything must be black and white, and nothing is allowed to have a shade of grey _at all_. Isn't that just special?





Remind me again why I decided to read web blogs looking for reactions to the riot?

Because it's rationalised as being easier to deal with a single identified cause (ie, an individual or group) than it is to deal with nebulous social issues such as bigotry and aggression as a conditioned response. Instead of looking at why people reacted violently and trying to establish a dialogue, it's easier to blame mutant or human extremists and just ban or arrest them.

All I know is both sides had equal amounts of casualties.
