If only blacks and whites had the humility to actually listen to one another about there different prospectives and find a common ground to unite.

They do but people in power want black people to stay in the same situation in order to use them. They’re literally using them right now. They want the races pitted against each other, they want the sexes pitted against each other. They want us divided and anyone who knows strategy or history knows what comes after that.

So people in power control people hearts? Absolutely not! If people had a heart of love and compassion and respect, no one could influence division. We can no longer blame anyone but ourselves. We have the power to affect change.

What are you talking about? Black and white people get along anywhere they’re allowed to. These cities you see with riots have heavily segregated populations and are subject to more media influence than anywhere else. It’s no coincidence this is happening in the places it is.

I guess the most discouraging thing is, people can be some of the most amazing individuals, but people can also be evil and hateful. Blacks! White, Hispanics, etc. As I read these comments hoping to see at least people respond to Joe Burrow and Will Wade and all of these other inviduals with respect. I believe the black community only want us to acknowledge there pain and simply say, we’re sorry! I believe we want the black community to acknowledge the murders they commit in there own communities. We all are different. Accept it, respect it and find common ground!

That's kind of a myopic View of what's Happening. People don't have to have the media tell them to know that police have too much power. In many cases it's not even the fault of the police. The wealthiest members of our society do not like being taxed so the police, in order to raise money, constantly give people citations to pay for their own existence. The people that get the worst end of this are the poorest people and the black population is certainly among the poorest. They don't get the same level of representation because the money isn't there and they are constantly having to pay some sort of fine or citation. It's a way of having the load taken off of the shittiest people while keeping the poorest element bogged down and constantly trying to catch up or Keep Their Heads above water.

To Simply say it's the media that is making people think of the police this way is very naive and very small minded. The black population, throughout the United States history, has been put through the ringer time and time again. But this isn't even just about black people or the black community. This is about the police having too much power. Everyone loves to focus on the rioting but did you see any of those videos where the Miami Police kneeled and everyone cheered with them and gave them hugs and everyone got along? That's all anyone ever needed to do was acknowledge the people like Colin Kaepernick and none of this would have continued to just swell. Police having normal relationships with the community and the community respecting the police in return is how love helps heal situations.

Look in Kansas City what are the police and the protesters ended up having a barbecue together and they sit and ate their food together. This isn't something that is rocket science. When you show other people respect and extend an Olive Branch then you get respect in kind. Doing like Donald J jackass and threatening to shoot people or send the military is not how you heal the situation. It's just going to make it worse and the distrust grow. Hell, in Flint Michigan the police department walked and marched with the protestors. Everyone was happy. That's how you do this. You don't sit back on your high horse and accuse everyone of being a liberal rioter or whatever other dumb crap keeps coming out on social media

The truth is since the LBJ presidency the left has annexed and exploited the black community. For 60+ years they’ve been in control of law enforcement and justice over these inner cities and for 60+ years it’s gotten worse. They’ve bought off their community leadership structures and have fed them lies this entire time. How is it white people doing this? The police they’re talking about work for politicians they elect and judges they elect. Why does everyone else need to apologize when not only are they not responsible but they’re blamed for things they haven’t done? Stop getting news off of twitter they’re liars by admission.

I just said look at where this is happening. Let an NYCPD officer try to hug an Antifa member and the only BBQing happening will be the nearest cop car or Target.

This argument is not very smart and is really tired. I've heard this time and time again and it just doesn't hold any water. The elderly get Social Security and in many cases Medicare. Are we going to sit here and pretend like that ruins their lives? It's just imbecilic at best to assume the offering Aid to a community to help them rise from poverty and years and years of psychological abuse is somehow what put black people in the situation they're in. I think systemic racism, lack of similar opportunities, and locking people up for the most minor of offenses are things that destroy communities.

When you have people that are constantly locked up in your community then you have children being raised without family or a central father roll. Many of them grow up to be war criminal and less able to deal with hardships on an emotional level. This is not because of LBJ and Democrats. That's just silly

It's pretty simple. They are put in a position in which they hold a lot of power over an individual when they are having to do things that they probably wouldn't normally want to have to do for their job. Someone casually rolling through a stop sign at a low speed should not be an offense than anyone pays for. We should find people when something actually happens. We shouldn't have police sitting on every corner waiting to pull people over or issue citations because they caught a guy with a joint or because some guy didn't use his turn signal exactly a hundred feet before a stop sign. It makes people just trust the police which in turn makes the police angry at people.

Your opinion maybe facts, but the truth is, how does that solve the problem. We can go back and forth all day on who is right and who is wrong! The right thing to do however is to find common ground and move forward.

Again your view of this seems very small minded. I've seen video wear Maga guys AR driving a car into crowds, I've seen videos where police are passing out undo brutality, I've seen videos where opportunists are showing up to loot and plunder. I mean a lot of right-wing media will have you believe that the protestors themselves are the ones looting and rioting but I think that I have seen very little evidence of that. When people know the cops are busy with a protest they go to a store that is fairly nearby that is unprotected and they rob it. Those are simple criminals. This whole antifa business has no teeth at all. Don't get me wrong, I don't like antifa at all but I've seen a lot of bad from everyone here. And the people who have handled this the best are when the cops and the protestors decide to join forces.

I haven't seen any NYPD going out of their way to be nice to anyone. Usually when people are upset with the authority, it is up to the authority to heal the Divide. What's really strange in all of this is how people on the right wing are suddenly ignoring the fact that there are curfews and that Trump is talking about bringing the military in which is a blatant abuse of government power but yet having to wear a mask inside of a target is such tyranny. At least be consistent

Lmfao it’s not only holds water the facts price unquestionably. SS has nothing to do with any of it I don’t know what idiot gave you that talking point and I didn’t even bring up aid. You’re moving the goalpost because you have no rebuttal to the truth. It’s a simple fact that these places have been 100% dominated by democrat rule for over half a century and since it started the condition around the black community has gotten worse in every way. Look at the progress before and after it’s a cone shaped comparison. You have zero interest in fixing anything you’re here to spew rhetoric you got from someone else. Disgusting

Except for the fact that he wants to play QB in the NFL but there's this problem of him sucking dong at it so that makes me giggle.


And for the record, I dont believe any Army Ranger told him jack shite but if it fits your narrative drive on soldier.

Look if you want to have a mature conversation then you're going to have to be mature. You are blaming programs that help inner cities while giving a free pass to the Ronald Reagan's of the world they did everything they could to dumb down this country band piss on the less fortunate while giving the most fortunate bigger tax breaks and an easier ride. If you want to have a little debate on the subject I'd be willing. You definitely won't be able to sound like that and anybody else believe you by the end of it

The silver lining is maybe this gets more people paying attention and finally understanding how important this stuff is. Take back control of their local government, don’t be fooled by slick oil salesmen making promises that feel good and demand results. don’t let them pass blame when you’re giving them more than enough power to do what you want them to. Same goes for representation in Congress, you have to be very careful vetting hill politicians but they can do it and the country needs them to.
