The problem is because of those that keep saying "systemic racism" and refuse to allow it to heal. Liberals mostly, that NEED color, gender, etc. identity politics to control the masses. Racism was healing, but then about ten plus years ago, the new political control decided that the only way they could maintain control with the least amount of work, for the people was to rip the scab off the healing wound. Ever notice that it is the white progressives that are ALWAYS the ones that stir that racism pot?

Bad COPs perpetrated a wrong and will be punished. Now, let this country heal after suffering a great economic loss due to the virus. There is NO excuse for destruction of property and assaults on people that are already down in this country. I'm sorry if I do not have the patience to coddle those that have been slighted, either imagined or real. No one has even proved yet that this incident, tragedy perpetrated by a few COPS is racially motivated. If it turns out that the COP involved has a personal gripe with Floyd, that has nothing to do with his race, no one is even going to go back and fix things. It will just be chalked off in history as a racially based killing. I am not saying that it isn't, but I am saying that these incidents always prove to be spontaneous combustion, before all the facts get released to the public.
The demonstrations have forced action on the part of the leaders. Four men are charged. Now, close up shop and quit destroying what little folks have left after this terrible virus has robbed from us.
