What is the purpose of attacking stores, of looting, of destroying, of doing all of this? I know that for people that steal, they get a financial benefit from it.

But I know that for people who are angry and upset, they want some outlet for their rage and any political cause, any narrative that gives them some justification in their mind for it is immediately seized upon.

But when do we understand that until as a society, we entirely condemn forcefully, culturally, politically, legally until we take action to shut this stuff down, it will continue.

It keeps going. Trump is not president and yet they're still looting stores. They're still trying to burn down federal buildings. The left, the mob, they feel justified in this in some capacity.

And it means that we're all less safe. But I want to tell you about how to stay safe when you're online.

There's a lot of good in having access to free Wi-Fi when you're out in public. And we're starting to do that again as you know, free Wi-Fi is faster access to the internet.

No data usage charges on your cell phone bill. But with all that good comes a risk. And that is that some bad actor in the area could just be waiting to gain access to your data.

It's like the difference between sending a postcard on the mail that anyone might be able to read and a letter in a sealed envelope that no one could see what's inside.

And for that, you can protect yourself and five of your devices like I do start with your laptop or computer and include your phone and tablets.

A police involved shooting is what the media calls it.

And this is one of these times where a lot of a lot of things, a lot of factors seem to be coming together to make the situation even even worse than it would otherwise be.

Let's start with the basic details from over the weekend.

A man named Dante right 20 years old was shot in Brooklyn Center, which is right near Minneapolis, Minnesota, after being pulled over by police, the story that we are being told right now.

And I want to emphasize how much this changes and how the facts will shift.

They always do in these politically charged incidents of police involved use of force lethal use of force. The story is that he had air fresheners and that he was pulled over for air freshers.
