As we see the images coming out of Egypt, I think it’s important to remember something about what’s going on in our own country. In various places on the Internet, I’ve seen folks making comparisons between what police are doing to the Occupy Movement protestors and what security forces are doing in places like Syria. There’s one important difference. In Syria and Egypt, the police are using live ammunition, and shooting people dead. Blood is running in the streets. What’s happening here is reprehensible, but the two are on completely different levels. Let’s keep things in perspective, and keep our commentary accurate.
