The difference, of course, being that that was a case of a criminal doing a despicable thing while here it was a person trained and employed specifically to keep the public safe doing something heinous.Also, the boy didn't die which certainly makes a difference.
The Police exist to enforce the laws of the country, not to 'keep you safe'.Didn't Floyd commit a crime prior to this interaction? I thought he attempted to use counterfeit money in a store owned by a real minority. He was also walking perfectly fine before resisting arrest.None of this excuses the actions of said police officers or his murder.In another world, he doesn't commit a crime, he doesn't encounter the police, he doesn't die.

OK...child does not count...got it.
He probably does. They still teach that in the US, I think.
i wish it was a reading comprehension problem, but i'm sure it's something more sinister with you northstar
Unless it is unborn....Democrats see to that.
An unborn 6 year old?
....though it is from 2013, it is still relevant. https://www.startribune.com/black-on-white-crime-in-america/223696071/
Northstar, it's irrelevant. All white on black crime is a result of racism but black on black/white crime is a result of poverty, caused by the systemic oppression of black people. So basically all crime is the fault of white people. It's much easier to look at it that way, profess your guilt/privilege about it at every opportunity and live your life without any hassle.
Choosing to live your life without hassle is white privilege though, so can we do that?
You never know, I think I read something once about a woman who somehow kept hers inside and it eventually fossilized.
