I don't know anything about this Yeager guy, aside from his shooting his mouth off and letting his anger and frustration override what others have tried to teach him.

I try and teach my students that with each right that we so proudly trumpet comes a corresponding responsibility. My students don't really like to hear that part. Still...

I appreciate BGutzman's comment:

"If we want to stop violence then we need to hear each other as a community and reassure each other that we are a community and that we have lawful constructive ways to resolve these things. We can stop a lot of violence if we can just be silent enough to hear each other..."

Good words.
