The police is probably the only urban institution in the country that works. And now we're going to minimize that. That'll help blacks.
Nine unarmed blacks were killed by police in all of 2019. Nine. 18 blacks were murdered in Chicago on one recent day, May 31. Twice as many as were killed by cops in a year. Sure, by all means, let's start riots over the miniscule threat, and ignore the much more serious threat, because the serious threat pays no political dividends to you, and that's what this is all about, obviously.

Jim your out of touch this comment shows it "miniscule threat" who are you to make that.. are you black do you live that daily with that possibility.. have you lived in that fear
being killed unarmed by the Police is in a different league
Blacks kill black white kill white hispanics kill other hispanics thats how the world works it built into the structures of where we live
being killed by the Police or how police treat the public is Huge ..
the dont tread on me flag isn't just for Trump rallies or 2A protest
it applies to police killing and treatment they represent the Government the authority AKA tyranny
but some here thinks that doesn't apply to police actions
cruel, unreasonable, or arbitrary use of power or control. sound about right ... just because the above actions may be seen as miniscule threat by those with no knee on their neck .. doesn't mean its not a valid sentiment
