In almost every one of the stories of negative encounterss black people have with cops involves resisting arrest. CRT advocates present these stories as though the person was Rosa Parks.
I watched the video many times and saw the man resisting arrest. Was he wrong? Yes. Did the officer have enough time to comprehend that the suspect was not a threat? Yes. The problem is you want to put the victim on trial as opposed to looking into the real issues just like with George Floyd. Also, I would like to know exactly where you're getting you CRT lessons from since you think it's just a white hate program.

I don't think it, CRT advocates bash white people all the time. Watch Joy Reid as one example. Her favorite expression is 'whiteness'.

I think that cop shoots a white man in the same situation. You are assuming he did it for racist reasons but you can't know that. I also question if the cops in the George Floyd case wanted to kill him or had a racist motive. That's speculation. You can make a case for negligence but I don't see how you can prove racism or intent to kill. Why would he want to go to jail over that plus there was a crowd of people around them.

The autopsy indicated he had a lethal amount of drugs in his system and the cop did not lean on his airway as the media said. He was having trouble breathing prior to going to the ground. CRT advocates never get the basic facts of cases like this right. The ultimate lesson of George Floyd is don't do drugs but it never gets mentioned.

They said Rittenhouse is a white supremacist but the kid didn't shoot any black person. He shot 3 white criminals who attacked him and pointed a gun at him. He was attacked by a black man as well and he didn't shoot that man. What does racism have to do it? Why do CRT advocates want to associate black people with 3 white criminals. One of them was a pedophile. These were men chasing down a boy with deadly intent. THis case proves CRT advocates make everything about race.

Wait, what? So you are saying advocates? Not what CRT actually teaches. If that were the case then you should always align the Right Wing with white nationalists since their groups always align with Republicans? How about let's stick to the topic bud.

George Floyd killed himself is what you're basically saying? If I can remember most people with that theory( which was proven to be false) were saying they couldn't breath while wearing a mask to protect themselves and others during covid. Yeah, I forgot that was about citizen's rights. Floyd could breathe just fine on hot pavement with three men on top of him preventing his lungs from contracting. Clearly you forgot that POC have the right to a fair trial. People saying Rittenhouse was racist had to do with his background and the pictures he was posing for, but his past doesn't convict him like it does others.

When we had segregation and slavery in this country, it was the Democratic Party doing it. You are proving CRT advocates like to call political opponents racist. CRT people seek to link the history of their party with the GOP.

Municipal elections have extremely low turnout.

You know darn well, the pre-1960s southern Democrats are Republicans today.

Zero is correct; the schools are governed by school boards not the mayor, city council or county council for that matter.

You seem to be missing the point as to why people vote against CRT advocates. We view CRT as anti-white racism.

I suspect covid policy was a big reason the Republican won as well.

If this is true, why don't Republican voters view FDR as one of the greatest presidents. FDR won 98% of the vote in SC.

How do you explain Tim Scott.

Also know darn well that democrat views were much different in the 60s or earlier than today.
