That has nothing to do with what Im saying though.
Just because we are mad and have hatred towards something or someone, does not mean we are allowed to light it/them on fire or deface their buildings.
Or if it is, then lets just have vigilante justice for everything and see how that turns out.
If we want true equality in this country, then lets treat everyone equally.
And has been mentioned, it would be really unfortunate if these criminal acts take away the support and awareness that is starting to happen for the indiginous members of this country. Something that is more than likely to happen if its not reigned in.

Its a sign of the frustration they are feeling, that they have had to go this far. It's not all that dissimilar form the BLM actions. People can only take abuse for so long before they reach this level of action. If someone is that frustrated that they risk prison to try to get themselves heard, clearly it is extremely important to them. Nothing else has worked, so burning their house down feels like at act of desperation to me. Which I find pretty sad, but I can't sit here and really blame them at this point. We as Canadians should also take note at their level of frustration, and work as hard as we can to make sure they have some hope.
How else would you suggest they get the Catholic Church to acknowledge them at this point?
