My mouth is full from all the words people have been putting in it...
Yeah! Because white people are being oppressed!
Did I say that? I don't remember saying that. I did dispute the claim that white people some how never get brutalized by the cops.
Autopsy also said there were "potential intoxicants", which, if you believe that, you would believe any bullsh
t.
So basically you won't trust anything from an investigation that doesn't confirm what you believe.
read it again until you understand the point i'm trying to make and why i even posted in the first place. and before you jump to any one of those ASSUMPTIONS of yours i suggest you put yourself in others' shoes.
You aren't making any point or counter point. You are just being a dismissive jerk. Nothing you have written shows any real thought, just talking points.
These stores that are being looted? They're made for THEM to get money and for US to pay because... consumer demand, duh. Anyone can get anything online these days, does it really matter that much? These stores can be rebuilt in no time while the oppression of black people in america has been going on since before america. you remember the suffragettes? they smashed windows and asked the government if their lives or the property mattered more. it still took them YEARS to finally get their rights. you remember the bloody sunday? turnaround tuesday? you would THINK the government would learn. the national anthem kneels, the oscar speeches, the protests, the riots, WHAT has changed? and you find it sensible to think the riots are unprecedented. SIT down
You do know that people work in those stores, right? Those stores provide jobs so people can feed their families. Looting them means you just took money out of the hands of those workers. You think the companies that got looted will just go "oh well" and keep everyone on payroll?
Oh, and tell KB Balla that things can be replaced. You know, the black man that put his entire life savings into a sports bar that he was about to open, only to have it burned down and destroyed, ruining his life's work. But he some how deserved it because owning a business is some how evil, right?
Please tell me what you want changed. What racist laws do you want abolished? Be specific, don't just say "black oppression" as if that is enough.
There are plenty of black people that have applied themselves and made it in this country. If the country was truly systemically racist, we wouldn't have any black people with any influence, yet we do. That does not mean racism doesn't exist, but to say the country as it is today is systemically racist is wrong.
