Focus on actions, not just on words

Does anyone really think Canada geese should be protected or that it's a mistake to revisit and revise the Endangered Species Act? It has been used by multiple groups to thwart growth when no other argument works.

Does anyone really think that Trump's criticism of the press isn't well deserved? After all, by some estimates, 91 percent of his coverage is negative, 97 percent on one network, and things are pretty good. Most of what he has said is exactly what has been said by Obama, Clintons, both and Schumer. And to accuse him of vitriol when he and his administration have been called Hitler, racists and every other phobic in the world. With only a modicum of cooperation, we could have reform in many problematic areas like immigration, welfare, social security, etc.

Does anyone think you can have too many policemen at an Antifa rally? They are destructive and aggressive. Why do you send 3,000 journalists to cover 30 quacks march through Charlottesville?

It seems we should take a breath and pay more attention to what happens and less to what is said.
