they roasting the s*** outta the NG on that DC stream lmao
funniest s*** ive seen 😭😭😭😭😭
Basically are the protests now over ?
the national guard is just there to scare protestors away, I'd believe they won't be acting hot like cops do
plus they have military vest on. inconsciously you tell yourself they're not someone to play with, that's the authority you been told they have since you're a kid.
in reality, military are heavily trained they don't go out there brutalizing people.
but yes it's gonna tone down in the next few days now that the cops involved in Floyd case have been arrested.
You think people will be like I'm not racist, because I was tweeting about the George Protests similar to how people were saying that they weren't racist because they voted for Obama?

Of course
Something I realized while typing out one of my last few posts is that its difficult to explain systemic racism to someone who refuses to acknowledge it
When you have so much history at the touch of a screen, of how this country was built, like cmon dude u never learned about segregation, u think racism magically went away in the 60s or something? and that people on the "Left" mention it just for fun? Not because police officers get away with killing unarmed people all the time here?
edit: this post is somewhat on topic but my bad if i ever drive this thread off topic other than the important info, I'ma try not to treat this thread almost as a chat thread almost as I have been doing, thats not the point of it
Because a lot of people who arguing that are
1. Not arguing in good faith: They are opposed to the advancement of black communities so they want to deny that there is any systematic oppression to fight in the first place, gaslighting activists.
2. Do not want to see themselves as privileged, because they believe it would invalidate their achievements. Its hard to admit you have an unfair inherent advantage. If you studied hard for 4 years and went through 10 interviews its hard to accept that you were 2 times more likely to get the job than that black guy in the lobby because of your skin color.

Well put feds
When I first saw about this I didn’t think about it but I wonder how this will affect US relations abroad
The LAPD having a 3 billion dollar budget is just absurd
Crazy to think that we could be on par with countries like Japan or Singapore in terms of things like amazing infrastructure and ridiculously low homelessness rates but instead we are dumping tens of billions of dollars per year across the country into police forces so they can kill innocent black people on a regular basis
The LAPD having a 3 billion dollar budget is just absurd
Don't know what that money is being spent on
Don't know what that money is being spent on
Lapd is the largest most dangerous criminal gang in California
I pray people don’t forget none of the stuff these celebrities have said on social media. Everyday it’s a new one saying some crazy stuff then apologizing
