George Floyd murder | Clashes between US police and protestors

[RadcliffeRick]

A mere flesh wound. I remember being in England during the big riots in the early 80's, I remember the LA riots in the early 90's , the London riots in 2011, people have to let off steam but at the end of the day have to go back to work. Hopefully something positive will come out of all this but not end of days stuff

Do you cause trouble everywhere you go? :-)

Who with? Antifa? Blacks in America are waking up to the fact they're getting used for votes so who? American pickers have probably found more guns in one shed than what the US military own.
(joke'ish)

I said the same thing about the Black vote and some soft arsed neolib Wall St 'tough nut' from San Francisco, on here, said 'if he were Black, he'd have kicked my arse for saying it1'!

Oh, how I chortled...

Just curious. Was your upbringing diverse? Mine was and I honestly don’t even notice skin colour, race, etc.

It was reasonably but then I live in a very white part of the world - south west.

I'm thinking about media perceptions and things like that - talented black footballers being singled out for physicality and things like that.

I just think there's a systematic bias that's there and ingrained. I've seen Asian friends been given grief and the 'jokes' in a footy changing room about the black lads - they're symptoms of it not being an equal society

Aren’t we all humans? Isn’t that the point? ‘Westerners/Asians/whites/blacks’. We all bleed the same.

Exactly, but the white guys aren't the ones suffering as much, so we should also make a stand to ensure full equality

but at the end of the day have to go back to work.

Yeah, so theres no jobs to go back to - thats part of the problem, the country is fucked.

Does natural tribalism not play a factor outside of Humanity...?

Nah, we'll bounce back in no time

What a bull shit statement.

No, the bullshit is the bad egg theory.

Until the good cops start putting the bad ones in jail, outing them, and stopping them instead of standing by, they aren't good cops.

Look at all these good cops.

Some saying the highway wasn't actually shut and it looks like it caught him off guard, he stopped and was then beaten to within an inch of his life.
