I don't get it. The cop got arrested for murder (and it is possible his knee may not have been the COD). I think the real problem is we created a second class of "non-essential" citizens that have nothing else better to do than participate in some anarchy..

Not my opinion, but this is what I gather by reading the comments in the dredges of society known as Facebook. The whole "no justice no peace" seems to be the new movement.

Guilty - "see this is rampant and the sentence is not harsh enough (no matter what it is)". Riot, loot and burn. Not guilty - "see the system protects the guilty". Riot, loot and burn. Although this happened during the covid era the results probably would have ben the same even if covid had never been heard of. This quasi justification of "people have been in lockdown too long" is just an attempt to rationalize things.

It's not the fact that every cop is a murderer. It's the fact that for every cop who is a bad apple, there are 10, 20, 30, 40, 50+ cops who won't say a word when they see something wrong. There were 3 other cops, and a parks officer on scene when George Floyd was murdered by a cop (who also has a storied history of killing minorities and has a dozen police brutality complaints against him) and none of them stepped in. Complicity IS support. |

What does it say to you that there were 4 other peace officers on scene who watched as Floyd took his last breaths and didn't say or do a thing? I have enough cop friends to know that they don't tell on each other. |

I'm a bit disappointed by your 'Devils advocate' responses. The US system is broken and Canada's isn't terribly different. |

I wouldn't say I was, or ever have been racist, but I'm understanding why people of colour say that people like me are part of the problem. I realize that my voice as a straight, white male has a lot more weight than a comparable black man's does in our society. It's time for people like me to make sure that everyone's voice is heard. |

Got a call from assistant director saying white supremacy is planning to rioting around my work area. So I’ll be eating lunch from home. It worked out well. 4 packages have came. Sadly most of em cannot be installed, cuz it was for the front bumper

Saying "fact" does not make it one. I was just wondering if you had data to support the statement.
