They’re going to fix it this time.
They’re going to burn the racism out.
The systemic racism lives in the buildings.
They’re letting skinny white kids with criminal records burn all the buildings.
Kind of the same thing with all those statues that suddenly "had to" come down. I guess they only started offending in the last couple of years?
Ditto gun control. What about all these weapons we "simply have to ban" with "common sense" gun control? Oh, that's right, my timing is off. We only talk gun control right after a shooting the MSM can spin and grind on for a few days - when they can whip everyone up into an emotional state rather than contemplating legislation with logic and reason.
I’ve been saying the same thing for years. I don’t see any of this happening in my strong Republican town and borough. Blacks don’t have to worry about police brutality. They’re not followed around a store just because of the color of their skin. Our police are professional and courteous. Every so often somebody gets stupid and shoots or tries to shoot at the police and are in turn shot and killed, but I can’t think of a single instance when it was a black person that this happened to. I see blacks when I’m out and about and I don’t think anything of it. Most black criminals in Alaska seem to prefer urban over suburban or semi-rural, so I really don’t see them where I live. We have a “Who not to use” Facebook page, and I’ve never seen a black person post about a racist experience at any business out here. So yes, I see this as a peculiarly Democrat issue. But that’s to be expected when you consider the racist history of the Democratic Party, going all the way back to their first president, Andrew Jackson.
Minneapolis has been Democrat run for four decades, has had a police department headed by minorities for ten years and has spent millions of every liberal social program imaginable. It ought to be liberal utopia
