That is injustice. And it is sickening that anyone wouldn’t be upset about it.
Murder is murder, whether done by cops or a civilian. He will be tried in the courts just like everyone else. Whites get murdered by cops too. Some even by black cops. Does that mean whites are mistreated by society as well?

Fact is, blacks commit more crime proportional to their population, way higher than any other race. That means more run ins with police and things like this will unfortunately happen from time to time.

You don’t see police brutality being a problem for Asians, do you?

Kneeling for the anthem at work on the clock doesn’t prevent you from getting fired, riots or not.

Only thing harmed was fragile egos.

Yes, because half white millionaire athletes with rich white parents like Colin Kaepernick sure know what oppression is all about.

Please forgive America for rolling its eyes when millionaires who abuse drugs, abuse their families, carry illegal weapons, never date black women, or give a penny to their community lecture everyone else on justice and morality.

They do not commit more crime because they are black. They commit more crime because they are poor. Because of generations of an officially racist government and prior to that being outright owned. You really think the damage from that has been undone and the odds are even now?

How about simply to get equal prison time for the same crime when the only varying factor is race? Or to be murdered by the police at the same rate in the same conditions? Don’t compare a white who was actively firing on police or going for their service weapon with a black who was just suspected of passing a fake $20.

Nothing more fragile than a progressive afraid to offend anyone and failing at leadership by acting in a cowardly manner !!!
Maybe we can blame it on the drug cartels !!! lol

Fact is, more white people die at the hands of the police than black people yet you never hear about that. More whites are murdered by black people, yet somehow, whites are the threat to blacks.

Everyone is afraid to say or do anything to offend blacks. Anyone who is even implied anything that could possibly be interpreted as being insulting to blacks are fired or ridiculed.
Clearly you have anger against black people that you should seek therapy to handle. No one said police brutality was only experienced by black people. It is wrong no matter who is on the receiving end. But that doesn’t change the fact that after Native Americans, who have been almost entitled decimated, Blacks have been most mistreated in society.

No one is afraid to say or do anything to black people. They do it all the time, to the extent of calling the police a black child selling lemonade.

Furthermore, this isn’t just about black people. People out there are fed up with injustice period. Then you have other groups with their own agendas out, including white supremacists.

This is the result of the nation that for so long has refused to do what is right.

You are right, at least in one point. Blacks commit more crimes because they are poor. However, you are wrong in everything else. Today Blacks are poor not because of unfair treatment. Blacks get extra help in every way imaginable. Higher education expenditure in poor districts. Affirmative action, quotas has to be a certain number for blacks, etc. Just about every government program in the last 50 years is geared towards helping blacks.

No other group in U.S history, and probably human history, has ever been treated so preferentially.
