My dad is a racist. [I Need Advice]

So, we just watched the verdict of the Derek Chauvin trial, and I was almost in tears, happy that he was convicted. My dad starts talking about how there’s another camera angle of the video of him kneeing on Floyd and that he wasn’t on his neck. My dad is acting like he wants to prove that a white cop wouldn’t murder a black man. My dad also is racist towards Arabs, thinking that they’ll be dangerous which is so wrong. It pisses me off, and I almost don’t want to have a relationship with him anymore. Any advice?

That's a good little snowflake.

I’m a snowflake because I won’t bow down to people who support someone who kneels on a man’s neck until he dies?@curiosi

@marilynmichelle An agent of the government killed him, so it must have been a good thing. I mean the government did it. Right, @curiosi ?

@marilynmichelle No you are snowflake because you have been brainwashed by fake news and liberal education systems

@acpguy I’m more than willing to listen to other arguments, EXCEPT when they disregard the fact that it shouldn’t have happened. Ever.

@marilynmichelle Get over it. Bad things happen no matter who you are whether you are a bad person like Floyd or a bad cop. True it should not have happened but Floyd was basically a worthless individual that was a drug addled idiot that had a record, was not worth anything to our society, should have followed police orders and he screwed up. The cop did also but his life is probably worth slightly more than Floyd's. People need to weigh things good vs. bad and what is worse.

@acpguy So you’re God? You get to decide who is worthy of living a full life and who isn’t?

@marilynmichelle Just honest little one.

@acpguy Someone’s past shouldn’t dictate their future if they’re trying to change. Think on that.
