Someone drove a red SUV through a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin earlier today. There’s a lot of speculation out there about who was driving the SUV and what their motives may have been. In the wake of the Rittenhouse verdict, many people are being very quick to label this a terrorist attack.
I’m forcing myself not to speculate. When I first heard the news, I did jump to a conclusion but I’m not going to post it. One of the huge problem that we have in this country is that too many people jump to conclusions before they have all of the information. We’re so quick to blame the other side that we forget that people are hurting right now and that people need help. Being attacked by someone with no politics is just as dangerous as being attacked by an ideological zealot.
The 24 hour rule is a good one to observe. Whatever or whoever you may think is responsible for what’s happened, keep it to yourself for 24 hours. For now, just keep the victims in your thoughts and hope for the best.
