BUT... people cannot be allowed to break laws because we don't want to hurt their feelings.

You would think that after being arrested 30 times, this man would know the drill when a policeman says you are under arrest. Well, he did know the drill but chose not to conform..white or black, the drill is the same.
The other thread showed concern for police. I will say without any doubt, that because of the "leadership" that is driving this. There will be more and more unless we allow the law simply to vanish. A man, especially black, is now empowered to challenge his arrest, and thus if the police are doing their job in protecting society, you can count on more incidents.
Your fear of a race war is real. Even posters on here are whipped up hoping for "action". Nobody in Washington or otherwise is calling on people to follow the law. The leader is a criminal, who used to be an attorney until he was bounced, who has a "show" on TV that very few watch and a history..long one, of not only not paying taxes, but totally making things up to cause problems.
