When you look at the videos of the looters, they are being actively dissuaded by protesters. The majority of them are agitators, and while I don't feel comfortable saying that a majority are white but there is a significant amount of them are white.Quote:

You can think that, because maybe in numbers (since basically no whites were among the protesters) but you may want to look up the Watts riotsQuote:

oh I understand that....but if the protesters are OUT of there for the day before those agitators come out...there're only agitating themselvesQuote:

That's what the police said. Still, it is a about the big picture not necessarily these individual occurrences. The Floyd protests arent only about Floyd.Quote:

not a fair assessment.....while there IS obviously a problem with many/most police forces, there are many MANY fantastic and fair police officers out there doing all we'd WANT them to be doing and moreQuote:

More like a frat. There’s actually no law in most precincts that says you should intervene if a fellow cop is abusing someone. Standards across the board are a mess.
The Watts riots were in August 1965. The Civil Rights Act was signed in July 1964. So how could riots that happened after the civil rights act contribute to rights for black people?Quote:

First, I’m not the one whose solution to racism is “just don’t be racist”, that’s your sides solution.Quote:

Think about that, how shameless do you have to be to use this issue to advocate for lower taxes on the wealthy?
Third, yes, keep telling black people “the reason you are disproportionately targeted and affected is not due to racism,”, despite the fact Arbery died in a small town, not the inner city.
It sounds like your overall arching theme is that no matter what happens, the only thing your sure of is to never admit the system could be racist against black people. That’s the difference between us:
There could come a time when we do eradicate systemic racism to where I’d say it doesn’t exist anymore. But there will NEVER come a time no matter what happens where you would admit it exists.
So keep trying to sell black people on the idea the ones who believe them and want to help them are the real enemy, while the ones who don’t believe them and don’t want to do anything to help them beyond advance their own agenda (I.e. you) are really the ones helping. So far it’s getting you almost zero support from black peoples, wonder why?
