I Have A Strong Sense Of Justice

[image deleted]
IF YOU DO NOT LEARN YOUR HISTORY YOU WILL BE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT!!!
Hello out there...! I am hoping that whomever reads this is safe and free from this viral epidemic! I pray that you continue your good fortune! May our Higher Selves be with you and your families!
This event regarding George Floyd brings me back to a time ( studying it since I was too young! ) where there was social unrest regarding the Vietnam War!? There were protest against the lies told to us about the true number of soldiers that died in this preventable situation! There were protests around the world about this as well! Yes...it was for another cause but it was the injustice non the less...
Then, there were protest about the injustice done to our black brothers and sisters ( we are all part of the human race!!!) that many of us could no longer tolerate! Thanks to Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. for being one of many to make it clear that this problem of injustice continues! And it continues....when will it end? Will it end with this ( thank goodness?) “New Generation?” A Democratic government? It seems to me in my opinion that society at large has kept on putting a bandaid on this cancerous sore! It feels better temporarily until the protests disband. But it keeps creeping back! Why? Because there’s much work to be done! It must be dealt with properly until it is but a memory! Being of Italian and Austrian decent and being brought up in Lima Peru I guess makes me white...in this day and age. I can clearly see that most of white America is divided on race related issues! WHY? Because some have been poisoned by their ancestors in believing that blacks, browns and Asians aren’t as good as they are! Disgusting YES! My own abuser father was full of hate and resentment towards anyone different! Ppl are highly sensitive when asked where they stand! I’m sorry but perhaps they must die out!? It’s like trying to talk to Trump supporters.... plz hear me out? What I mean by that is that “they” don’t seem to have what it takes to question what “ they”, believe in or why?!!! Notice that some ( like some corrupt police) just follow thru on their beliefs and treat anyone or anything as a major annoyance!!! This too must stop! The reason why I am bringing trump supporters into this is because in my heart of hearts I truly and honestly believe that it comes down to FEAR! Fear of the comfortable ideals they hold true to unravel! Fear that they (whites) will no longer be held supreme! Supreme! What a joke! ARE THEY REALLY CHRISTIANS? I know little about the written word but I can tell you this! Christ himself would turn over several times in his grave knowing what his ( some!) followers believe! They think (WRONG! As trump would say!) in a way that is contrary to his teachings of compassion, love and wisdom. Dear reader, can you see what’s wrong with this picture? Trump has continued the poisoning with hate! Hate feeds into more hate! Trump’s another subject🙄🥱 entirely! Hate will never solve anything! It continues to do a great job in dividing us all! Back to this race issue! Knowledge and exposure to the true history of Black treatment may clear the air!? Much of our ( USA) teachings in school was taught to us through a white persons eyes! Look! I will make it very clear! We are all here for a little while to live our experiences through our journey in life! Why complicate things when life itself it hard enough without social issues! Can I get an Amen?! Love yes love must return to our hearts! We are better than this! When we the ppl are more in tune with each other, our Great Nation flourishes! Anyone that has a heartbeat has suffered something in life, why make it harder than it has to be? Fight our negative nature and unite! Unite as one people under one nation under God! I love you all no matter how you may feel towards me!❤️🕊 PS. Please hear Chaplins speech? It’s a great one!

You are confused. You need to listen or read more and fact check. You are coming to conclusions based on talking points and lies.
Even what you wrote about the Vietnam war was inaccurate. That was the Johnson administration’s war.
One thing you can start with is funding for America’s African American universities.
A horrible thing happened in Minneapolis Minnesota between 4 policemen and one civilian. In a country of 331,000,000.
The death and damage which was caused by criminal opportunists and terrorists who took advantage of a peaceful protest has disguised Americans.
Everyone is talking now. In justice is the topic. In or system of government with its checks and balances, with our love and devotion to our constitution, the idea that one man has the pulse of 331,000,000 people is ludicrous. There is an election in November .
By the way, Hitlers Nazi germany was evil and inhuman and they were crushed. They lost. Remember, history shows the socialists of the 20 th century made the nazis look like Boy Scouts. They were almost totally defeated but they are still here. They are the motivators of violence during our peaceful demonstrations. Therein lies the true threat to freedom
Read ‘Animal Farm’ by George Orwell
Or watch the movie.
@Deserthiker I realize that I have much to learn and have never claimed that I was a scholar on the subject. That is why I said,” in my opinion!” I should’ve also said,”I could be wrong!” My basic point is that I was focusing on protesters. Whether if it was against the Vietnam war, injustice against minorities or what have you. I welcome ur comment and appreciate any correction. Our school system hasn’t taught the truth about much of our history correctly! Lol! I agree that Stalin in many ways was much worse than Hitler! Killing many of his ppl and family members! Paranoia was prevalent with him! My bottom line is that many heartbeats are beating louder because most of us are sick and tired of the same hatred towards minorities! SICK OF IT! I also think that the idea of trump holding his rally in the same place were many blacks were murdered is insane! Especially in today’s climate!!!? And lastly...to have it on June 19???is beyond ridiculous! What little respect I had for trump has gone out the window! I welcome anyone of you to correct me! I am still learning and above ground! Plz relax this weekend y’all! Love ya!

@Shewolfiie69 Where have you seen hatred against minorities? Have you read the FBI statistics, or the Harvard University study police racism? In this country it is more dangerous for a minority to walk down their own street where they are statistically more apt to be victimized by their own people. Read the statistics. These numbers don’t lie. Harvard University is not an institution which would lie adopt hatred and racism.
Racism and hatred are not a white only characteristic.
Where is this Trump rlly going to be held?. I honestly have not heard that
