At a certain point what do you do but set shite on fire till someone will listen? this isn't ideal but you know, i really don't know what other options they have at this point to get something in motion.

Rioting and looting aren't great but how many people are we going to let get killed by a militarized police force fighting a war against us.

We need accountability and transparency nationwide for policing of citizens. If you get 17 complaints at your job and you aren't fired, how the frick does you boss even keep his job. system is broken.

LOL

I've never been arrested or had a speeding ticket. Not hard to avoid police interaction if you just don't break the law.
I'm also not black so I'm a racist, bigot I guess who has never been profiled.

Everyone agrees we can be better, always room for improvement. Nobody is perfect. Now everyone can go home, right?

No. It seems those demonstrating need someone to blame, someone else needs to take action to improve their lot in life, and someone else needs to pay for their difficulties. It doesn't seem they're interested in taking responsibility and controlling the one thing they can control, themselves. Gotta blame others. The blame game mindset is rampant everywhere tbh.

People have been killing each other for all sorts of reasons for thousands of years. It sucks, but rioting and putting a black box on social media aren't going to suddenly make a racist not racist IMO. It's bigger than that. People are either raised a certain way or learn to be that way through their experiences. I can appreciate the effort people are doing to try to end it but it's going to take generations of education and just being decent humans to change this. We unfortunately haven't proven we can do that yet.
