I'm going out on a limb here but I'm guessing the OP is not black and has a very limited idea of what it's like being a black person?

I do understand the point being made. The facts are not lost on me.

Not that it matters but I did grow up very poor, had to work full time instead of going to high school and maybe about 20% of my friends were black. I'm only pointing out my background as a point of reference.

Having black friends really let's a person see what they see. I can honestly say that there was never a time when racism didn't get brought up. Some of the situations we discussed seemed more likely that racism wasn't actual but rather perceived. I could disagree with my friends and it didn't cause any problems most of the time. It was shocking that a friend thought I was being racist when one day I said "boy am I tired" as I let out a deep breath. My friend instantly wanted to fight over that statement. It actually took a rather uncomfortable amount of time to convince him I wasn't calling him a boy. Again, I'm pointing out how a friend perceived racism when it didn't exist. I do try to see things from a different perspective as a result of my experiences.

As far as the police are concerned, I could easily recount no less than a dozen times I was with my friends and the police harrassed us for no reason. It was brutal to witness the outright racism and be a white person.

I absolutely don't condone resisting arrest, attacking a police officer or even disrespecting law enforcement in any way. I wish it would stop because it's not helping.

Unfortunately fatherless families, gangs, welfare, anti-white peer pressure etc are underlying issues that possibly lead to anger and rebellion? I don't have the answers.

What I do know is that statistics don't give you a complete picture. They are indisputable when it comes to showing the results of a broken system but they don't give us a road map to the solution.

It's so easy to say stop breaking the law, finish school, get a job and don't have kids out of wedlock.

That's what I ended up doing.
But that didn't work for the young man walking home one night minding his own business. He was a shy, introverted 19 year old that was confronted by several officers for looking "suspicious". He was killed and it was all on police body cameras. He didn't resist, was handcuffed and laying face down saying he couldn't breath. 5 officers kept him pinned down and then they had medical personnel give a powerful sedative.

This shouldn't happen to anyone of any color.

I support the police and I support police reforms that weed out bad cops instead of protecting them. BLM doesn't mean white lives don't matter so stop being offended if that bothers you.
