Silent Sam and Kneeling Colin — What we're actually fighting about
Every week there is something to be outraged at, no matter what side of the aisle you sit on. The latest examples of course are Nike's Colin Kaepernick marketing campaign and the fate of the Silent Sam statue at UNC Chapel Hill. These two fights, and many other recent ones, come down to what respect, if any, should be given to certain cultural symbols. But why are they so important to us that we can't seem to stop posting on social media and attending protests over them?

I think these scooters are a mess. People leave them willy-nilly
everywhere, and it's not about 'learning how to ride them,' it's about
following the rules. People are riding these things on sidewalks, where
they are not supposed to!
