In reply to the discussion: When the National Guard and/or federal assistance is sent in when a cop kills a black man [View all]ciaobaby
(1,000 posts)I too am a white woman - 65 years old. This is insanity. The press is tripping all over itself to express the abhorrence for cops being injured, damage to property, cars burning, rocks being thrown, and on and on.
But where is the abhorrence for the loss of life of innocent young black men. All the previous "peaceful" protests have produced NOTHING.
I sit here listening to all the plans to address the riots, bring in the National Guard, declare curfew.
Any plans YET to arrest and bring to trial any of these murdering racist cops ????? No - they remain on paid vacation.
I am so sick of this I could scream.
Hope some of you also heard Michael Eric Dyson on MSNBC - he was excellent.
As long as the protests remain peaceful it's business as usual.
