Is there any way you can edit the title of the thread to the mans actual name? Every time I see it, I just shake my head.
If the cop was black then he should be in jail as well. I understand your thinking on if he was black then it wouldn’t be protested as much which may be true or may not.
The real issue isn’t black vs white, it’s police brutality. Some people are making it a black vs white issue but I don’t think that’s the majority. The media will push whatever narrative for views/clicks but the real protesting is police brutality. The looting/rioting is being done by a small percentage which then makes the entire protesters look bad or evil. In my area there have been protests and all have been peaceful (hopefully it stays that way). And there are plenty of photos/videos that show white kids doing the looting/vandalism as well.
Unfortunately the small amount of bad cops makes the good cops look bad. I don’t know the answer on how to prevent this from happening but I will say I think more funding needs to go into better training, available therapy, and more of an effort put into bringing police and community together.
