Still have family in a couple small towns around/connected to STL. The good people are upset with the media and the fuel the are adding to a sad situation. There are a lot of good people of different color calling each other neighbors. There was a church, majority of the worshipers being black, was burnt down. A few are hurting a lot of good people.
Even though a majority of the people are black and a majority of the police are white, there is support for the police department. I think even the police department would like to see more black officers, but if there are no applicants.....difficult to hire.
Conversation is good. Looting and burning is not. Which is the media covering??
