Exactly right.

We have crime throughout the country, and there are black and white perpetrators. But when they are blue, that's when we should start to take notice whether they were putting their knee on someones neck or shooting them in the back as they flee and are unarmed. I don't care whether the person that got killed was white or black - it's not right. It just seems to happen to black people more often than white.

We have to hold the authorities to a higher standard. They are NOT supposed to be killing people for no good cause. At the very least we need to get rid of them as they do everyone a disservice including the fine men and women in blue who DO protect us.

The intent of the original post was not in the best spirit and the intent should be questioned.
