How to say this, without flames.
Here's my best effort.
Maybe you really haven't noticed, but in the wake of the death of George Floyd, there have been massive riots nationwide.
And Cancel Culture, including major corporations falling for the lie
"{only} Black Lives Matter".
Those who say "ALL lives matter" are canceled, sent into the cornfield as it were, from the old Twilight Zone episode.
The death of George Floyd was horrific. I read the State of Minnesota's probable cause documents against now ex-officer Chauvin; I got timeouts on FR for flaming people into cinders for attempting to defend him or his actions.
But George Floyd is not the only horrific death; and if (as looks likely) the policeman will not be successfully convicted on Murder One, Two, or Three(*), but will likely only be convicted on manslaughter (by the state), and possibly by the Feds for "violation of Civil Rights under color of law" (under the deShaney standard for being in state custody)...
well, that's not the only racially-related case of a death where the state is exacting disproportionately low penalties for the death of a citizen.
I'm upset at a college girl being stabbed to death by teenagers, and one teenager being sentenced to only 18 months, and another only 6 months at a juvenile facility...
and the fact that it's being ignored by the press and all do-gooders and rioters and so on and so forth...
Q said "you can't tell people. They have to be shown." To me, this light sentence is as upsetting as Gov. Cuomo ordering COVID-19 patients into nursing homes.
See, no flames. Just an explanation why I put it on the Q thread.

(*) quirk of Minnesota Law turning on the meaning of the word "Depraved Indifference" as defined by the Minnesota Supreme Court long before this case...
This is supposedly two different articles from the U.K.'s The Guardian.
Put it together with the Rotterham rape gangs of white teenage girls, and (in one case at least) the father of a girl who went to the police to complain, HIMSELF getting arrested.
If those articles are real, and not photoshopped...
See how it all just might possibly tie together?
