Never knew that a virus could also be racist!
The looting is wrong but it's become a tradition.
This time though.....I can really understand the frustration and anger. Three cops on the guy, one with his knee buried in the guys neck for nearly 10 minutes even after he went limp, all the while pleading he can't breath. And another cop standing there watching.
Let the fucking guy come up for air!
This was just wrong.
Where are we going and why are we in this handbasket???
The problem is that some police never learn. Remember the cigarette seller in New York City that was also choked to death. Riots happened after that, but unfortunately in these cases one bad apple is spoiling the whole bunch, which is sad because the majority of police are very very good people.
It is really hard to understand how in this day and age some cops have not got the memo that brutal thuggish behavior is no longer in their tool kit.
With everyone having a camera in their pocket they cannot hide their actions from the world anymore.
The good cops need to stand up and do something, but unfortunately there seems to be an us-vs-them mentality deeply ingrained in the blue culture.

The Nashville cops dispersed them quite nicely with tear gas at precisely 10:01 last night. They got them right out of downtown. Sadly, they had already damaged quite a few windows and started a fire in the courthouse.
Ethnic minorities may be dying from this pandemic because
1 - they have "co-morbidities" that already weaken their resistance;
2 - they are more likely to be living in areas of high density populations where it is difficult to "socially distance" themselves;
3 - their education and knowledge of things like safe food handling, sanitation, etc., may be lacking;
4 - they may just not WANT to follow all these orders and restrictions put on them by by "Big Brother".
“I have little patience with people who take the Bill of Rights for granted. The Bill of Rights, contained in the first ten amendments to the Constitution, is every American’s guarantee of freedom.” - - President Harry S. Truman, “Years of Trial and Hope”
There were also rumors circulating for a while that it didn't affect black people
