Terrible, but expected.Protests to reopen the Applebees or keep up a confederate statue = good and fine keep going It's their right to protest! Protests due to cops killing black people? Out of line, these leaders need to do something to stop it! Failure of the city manager or whoever happens to have a D in their name doggone it!

I'll give him credit though, at least we didn't get that idiotic "black people make up 15% of the population but commit.80% of all the crimes" bullshit.I believe it also shows the police are not as racist as they are made out to be. That's an incredibly silly way to look at those stats and to minimize the the issue of excessive force.There's plenty of issues with excessive force towards all races, but my point is the police aren't racist and it appears the stats back it up. But I'm all ears on why it's silly. Please explain I'm open-minded. I refuse to argue the affirmative or negative argument of "police are racist." It's such a ridiculous, simple construct. Issues of race and authority/power can't be simplified to this group of 700,000 people are or aren't racist as a collective. You might be that stupid, but I'm not.
