at most on this website. Underlined racists and even at a critical point in the blacklivesmatter movement still come out with utter tripe like "I think BLACK lives matter is racist" or those who are trying to correlate black lives matter and coronavirus.
you make me ill to think we're part of the same society.
I saw a tweet today which said... "Black people are willing to protest in the middle of a pandemic DESPITE the virus disproportionately affecting them, instead of the second wave comments maybe people should consider what they are fighting for is so important they'd risk their health".
Then you have thick as much keyboard politicians on here talking out their aprils. You should be ashamed of yourselves, you're literally a plague on this earth.

well no, the judicial process has only just started. and we the public (esp us in the UK who are 3000 miles away) have very little information.
what we know. on the 25th May, a man was taken into custody and in the course of that, he was rendered unconscious and died. this was filmed, so the author of the man's death has been identified. beyond that, we know only what we've been fed by the media, and in using that noun, I include unregulated social media. we don't know for sure why the police office felt it necessary to subdue the IP in that way. is he racist? is his employer racist? is an old score being settled - we've been told there may be history between these two, but we don't know for sure.
we're being wound up to a state of righteous (or riotous, take your pick) indignation. Malcolm X warned us about this 50 years ago.

I understand the campaign, I understand the anger however alienating those people you need onside by violence may be counterproductive. A protest around that Bristol statue and a campaign for its removal perhaps to the museum of slavery as an example of changing attitudes would have won support not anger. I hope another covid wave isn't going to come from this, it would be a terrible tragedy.
