The continent that slaves originated in is the worst on this planet by far. Send these idiots over there first class with $10,000 cash and a lifetime ban from US soil and see how life works out for them. Actually don’t watch, because I don’t care and I already know the ending.

This isn’t a “ black” thing, this is a Leftist/Progressive thing. Leftism/ Progressivism has ALWAYS represented chaos. Being fuzzy on The Rule of Law is part of being a “ woke” American. At no time is anybody who participates or cheers street violence on , expected to demonstrate any moral or logical clarity . And so The Progressive Mob just has it’s way for a week or so, ruins lots of lives, and then it’s over until the next time.
But here’s the thing. The American people are paying attention and they still have faith in the Rule of Law and understand the value of it. Even for bad cops who commit murder. And they want a fair trial and they understand that street violence does nothing to bring the guy back or give his family justice. And they start to crave order. Which ultimately undermines Leftist/Progressivism. It ultimately is self- repudiating because people see that it always devolves into lawlessness and chaos.
Remember that when you see the election results in November.

This country might be fricked. Hard to call right now. One of the most important problems is our populace is largely apathetic to who they vote for and most rungs of government have lost all sense of duty to the public.

The goal was to move to a post-racial society where the sordid past of our ancestors didn’t influence how people were treated today.
All of human history is a horror show of violence and corruption facilitated by the human condition. Dwelling on it in perpetuity only puts you on the fast track to ruin.

The idiots looting/burning down buildings don’t have retirements or any reason to care about the economy. They live in mom’s basement and/or off the government.

I personally feel like it’s all going downhill due to the fact that education isn’t a priority in this country. Education would be a remedy to a lot of poor peoples problems.
It is more fundamental than that. It is a lack of focus on having nuclear families with two parents that read to their kids daily.
Yeah the education system that is underfunded in many low income areas. That seems like it’ll change sometime soon.
Maybe if this country understood mass incarceration we’d have two parent households.

Hmmmm lower income schools get more funding where I'm from, throwing money at it doesn't work because parents don't care.
Also, don't commit crimes

Yes, libraries are the answer to the issues with education in this country.
You’re such a fricking moron.

How the frick can we ignore it and put it behind us when you motherfrickers continually bring that shite up every time some perceived slight happens to a black person?

They don’t motherfricker.

We created a police force who seems it okay to use excessive force to take down its citizens.
I agree, the police have way too much power and are no longer doing what they were called to do.

We have a judicial system which is biased against black America.
No, if you don’t have money, the judicial system isn’t usually kind to you. Black, white, brown, yellow, grey, red, whatever color your skin is.

We have a prison system which encourages mass incarceration and takes away voting rights as a punishment
Somewhat agree, we have far too many people behind bars.

Mass incarceration has nothing to do with the lack of two parent households.
You can thank LBJ for that one. His plan worked quite effectively.

Underfunded
Lol. I taught in a decrepit school in Japan and students showed up every day, crisp, prepared, respectful and ready to learn.
The problem in the USA begins the moment the baby arrives home from the hospital. It’s not money, it’s an ethic.

Nope the current idiots in charge created pension funds with overly aggressive returns which have had to be taken away.
The idiot politicians have a social security system that is massively underfunded so the protestors won’t see that anyway either.
Oh and unemployment just spiked to 15% which disproportionately affects youth and minority workers so bye bye 401k
And y’all really wonder why today’s youth are upset.

Today’s “ youth”, more than ever before, are historically and economically illiterate and they are proud of it. As you have demonstrated continually throughout this thread. All Progressive platitudes, no deeper understanding of cause and effect.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think youths working at McDonald’s have a 401(k). Feel free to correct me.

Sooooo lack of racial diversity. The same melting pot that we as a country brag about.
