Yeah... 26 year vet too. I can't imagine living with that either. A horrible tragedy all the way around.

1. Floyd and Wright's incidents are not racial events or hate crimes. They racial brewed political and media-made events.
2. We wonder how immigration has changed historically. Early on it was a promise of opportunity and struggle, but today it seems to be a place of safety and welfare. We seem to have groups importing immigrants instead of those individuals making the tough decision. Is it a reality? Is that the right strategy?
3. We are sick of our freedoms and liberties being limited due to inciters of race wars.
4. Why is there not a call for self-accountability?
1) no, they it's flat out police brutality, abuse of authority, etc. It's been a major issue for years and if the fact that more black people are proportionately killed by police than anyone else gets this shit changed so be it.
2) Our country decided to be world police, world humanitarians, etc and made asylum a thing (seeking safety). You say welfare, do you have any idea how many immigrants are on gov't assistance or the kind of work immigrants do when they get here?
Do you even have a clue as to how hard it is to travel thousands a miles like that? If you are saying people making the decision to flee their country to seek asylum in the US are not hard decisions... yikes
3) What freedoms and liberties of yours have been limited?
4) uhhh I hear that shit all the time from certain segments of the country. Often the same ones who blame someone's own death on them for not obeying a command saying, but they should just have listened. Any human being who is killed by a cop when there was ZERO realistic fear for life is not THE fucking "criminal". FULL. STOP. Unjustly killing a person is one of the very worsts crimes any person can commit. The amount of times I'll see someone reference a person as a criminal who's worst "crime" is some weak misdemeanor relating to said person being killed by a cop. (IE: cop kills unarmed non violent person and people say, but this criminal didn't listen)
