Exactly. They don't like the job the cops are doing? What do they think it will look like when there are roving bands of vigilantes putting down the criminals? I'll tell you. It will look like Real Death Videos | Warning Graphic Videos. Idiots. They just react to their own feelings without a thought for results, like children.

If someone pulls a gun on a cop, no matter if their black, red, yellow, green or white.. they'll be met with retaliatory gunfire... fact.

Can we discuss black on black crime for a minute? Or how about the single mom rate in black communities. Can we discuss the black population that is shot by black cops? Because it is disproportionately larger than white cops shooting black people. Can we discuss the amount of white people shot and killed (per capita) by cops?

No, no one can. Because it doesn't fit the agenda and no one wants to talk about it. "African american" culture has leaps and bounds to cross before we can have that discussion. Anyone that even hints to those things is automatically ostracized.

A conversation can not even be had on civil terms.

So let all these cops file their retirement papers and/or resign from the force. It's happening. Self goverign and see how it works out.

A serious, very deep root discussion will need to be had that has to include self awareness before change is made. This isn't/won't/can't be a blame game... and unfortunately that's where we are. Accountability will need to be had... i mean fuck... some? It's all blame.

#BLM2020 what a fucking joke

Again, deflection. It's being talked about, idk what you're on about. It's in our face allllll the time. Cops are going to prison. Body cameras are being worn. Police forces being dissolved/disbanded. Statues coming down. History being rewritten. I could go on and on with examples. I don't know what else anyone can do to cater to you.

But you right... the only problem the black community has are police racism. Once that goes away, it will be cupcakes and unicorns.

BLM...Birthed Losing Males...pack mentality, no balls, no father figures growing up, no principles in life. Always wants everything for nothing. Because of skin color, expecting something is owed to them. Lined up at foodstamp offices, hand-outs or looting. Martin Luther King would puke over all this! THAT was a true man.

Once we solve the one problem, we can get to work on the next. It's progressive. But it all starts with bad cops, and how you can get rid of them, so you can make things better.

Serious question. How was George Floyd's death racism related other than the difference in races between the suspect officers and Mr. Floyd? One can't say they wouldn't have done it if he were <fill in the blank>. There are other videos out there that are strikingly similar to the Floyd video with white males as the deceased.

Serious answer.
Show me one. UNARMED Blacks die in police encounters at a rate twice that of white people, even though they only make up 13% of the population. (I am not talking about armed blacks. I'm talking about unarmed blacks, in normal street encounters, who die for no particular reason, other than they are black.)

Everything for nothing, hey?
Are you aware that when the American west was opened for settlement after the civil war, anyone could just ride out and stake a claim to property, and get it from the government, for free?
EXCEPT FOR BLACKS. They were excluded.

Are you aware that when the GI's came home from WWII, they were eligible for the GI Bill, to get their college educations, paid for by the government, at not cost to them?
EXCEPT FOR BLACKS. They were excluded. So the same black guys that risked their lives to bring supplies to the front lines, for my dad to fight with, didn't get any of that.
Do either of those things seem fair to you?
That is just 2 HUGE examples. There are thousands more, where if you were white, you were set, and if you were black, you got nothing.
Justice for everyone hurts no one.
