However - there are white people apologizing for what
Chauvin did along with other past offenses.


The only people who need to apologize for what Chauvin did is Chauvin and the accompanying officers on the scene.

Because they're the only ones responsible.

There are plenty of people on the left, the media and the BLM movement who blame white people collectively.


Otherwise there wouldn't be a discussion on the matter.

I agree! There's nothing the leftists/liberals will not try to screw over anything they want to screw over.

satan (lower case "s" purposely) is having a "h3ll of a time."

Glad that your eyes are wide open and are of sound mind.

Do you have empathy for them?


I have empathy for anyone who's unfairly treated by police.

I don't have any more or less empathy based on skin color and false narratives though.

Sorry.

It's NOT George Floyd.

You guys are the REAL victims.

Please remind me; who are the snowflakes?

Our neo-Marxist friends on the left really are simple minded enough to see things as a binary like that. Try to show some sympathy for them.

What these Lefty morons will never understand:

Being from an intact family with parents that love you and raise you right isn't "privileged".

It's normal.

And there is nothing inherently wrong with privilege. Some privilege may have come about by immoral means and some practices from such a position may result in immoral outcomes - Most do not!

"Whiteness" is the new original sin.
Maybe now you'll understand what the blacks mean when they complain that they are being treated unfairly just for their skintone.

America is going to pay for the 240 years of free labor on the backs of slaves, one way or another.
