Everyone likes a narrative to support what they feel they want or need to do. It's like any other form of selfishness, there is very often a contrived narrative to justify it. Governments do it too. Weapons of mass destruction being a case in point.

@SW-User But in the case of "unarmed," minorities being killed by law enforcement officers is a fact. Stats prove the reality of the matter. Whether they were combative, or simply struggling while "unarmed," And that is the unbiased narrative. Ergo, the truth of the matter. There was just a recent case of a military guy who actually shot snd killed a state law enforcement officer (the near full taboo of government law enforcement agencies nationwide.) He not only killed the one officer, but he had shot two other law enforcement officers during the act. And to take that one step further, he is even suspected in killing another federal officer a few days ago in a separate incident. Yet, with shots being fired from the apprehending officers sometime later, he was still taken alive in handcuffs, transported to a medical facility where they were able stabilize his condition for him to "live."

I'm guessing they (the apprehending officers,) were trained in how to shoot a life threatening offender without killing them. I'm willing to bet a dollar to a donut they were. And they practiced those same academy (or military) trainings in apprehending this dude.

Come to think of it. I seem to recollect that U.S. law enforcement agencies, whether they be federal, state, or local seem to always be able to apprehend those who can provide intelligence "alive." And in most cases without a scratch.? Hm?

@masaca Sure, but on the back of a justified cause are those using it for their own ends on both sides of the equation. Some use it to invoke a far left narrative, others to invoke a far right narrative. Then there are those who use it to loot stores and instigate violence simply because that's what they want to do. So many people are detracting, or trying to detract, from the real narrative and the narrative that is important.

@SW-User Personally, I don't think it's distracting the left (protestors.) I do however, think it is distracting (or confirming Trump's personal, and I dare say shared racist and bigoted biases) otherwise known as "confirmation bias'"

I think there are surely criminal elements who are taking advantage of the early chaos. But, I am certain that there were, and most likely are elements of the rabid anti-government, anti-black, anti-government Latino, anti LGBTQ (closet homosexuals,) anti-everytthing non-white (that is to say Anglican,) who have taken an active participant in these protest demonstrations, to let's say, spark support, if not ignite a race war. Oh wait, I mean, "Civil War." My bad.

But you see, here's the rub. There are absolutely no coastal left-wing urban dwellers who want to March in to middle U.S. farm land, or dismal swamps, or mountain hillbilly kin townships (because we watch monster movies, dont'cha know)

And there is absolutely not one hung ho patriotic white pride group that has the guts to move on any of our heavily populated, well designed, cities. Hell, even if you all have tanks and sh*t trying to move into our cities you will meet resistance if not total inihilation before you reach 100 miles of our "county," limits, less alone our city limits. Then your infantry people, the hundreds or thousands who may manage to make to our cities, will have to duck and dodge our own militia forces (gang bangers, et al,) who know our streets and alley ways.

The way I see it is nobody is going to do sh*t other than a bunch of lynchings here and there in Marlboro country and points yonder.

The best I see you folks ever doing is sitting in your cornfields and come pastures talking big sh"t about what hitler and mussolini might've would've done, and sneaking off to the bushes and busting each other's buttholes in secret.

hehehehe.
