Thankfully wheels turn slowly in Washington. Hopefully the passage of time will cause more politicos to realize that a knee-jerk reaction is not helpful. And maybe the clamor from the voters will subside just a bit too.

The same conversation erupts after every incident. Emotions are on the boil on both sides, which does not set things up for reasoned conclusions or any compromise from either "side" of the issue. By the time heads cool enough to effectively communicate, it seems we are already slapping grease onto the next squeaky wheel, whether it be climate crisis, bigotry in action, or our fearless leader's Tweet wars. Solving the dilemma is a Catch-22.
