I don't agree with looting or burning down businesses.

I do however agree with starting the police stations on fire because the police were the ones who started this.

Rioting is the completely wrong direction lol, they should have done formal protests, there's no unifying leader in all this, otherwise all this attention would have actually caused pragmatic change, or atleast done it quicker

@Zaxel Everyone likes to bring up peaceful protest like Martin Luther King. What did that get him? Killed by the government.

@Zaxel but I agree there needs to be a clear leader like any good Revolution or movement

@Mmagirl Malcolm X was basically his action meets action counterpart and he got killed too lol. Both were effective but because they were organized and had clear goals for what they were going to get done, neither of which is present atm unfortunately

@Zaxel Malcolm X was killed by the Nation of Islam and Louis Farrakhan, because he wasn't black enough. I shit you not.

@Mmagirl Lmao either way anyone can die for whatever reason
@Zaxel They tried peacefully kneeling, and y’all had a problem with that, too.

@LeopoldBloom what do you mean "y'all" , there's protests and then there's riots, its really that simple

@LeopoldBloom I had no problem with the kneeling itself if I'm honest with you. But it was explained to me that Kaepernick didn't kneel at first he just sat on the bench and it was also the first game he got benched for Blaine Gabbert to be the quarterback in San Francisco. I find Kaepernick to be disingenuine and I really feel like he was just throwing a fit and just came up with an excuse on the Fly and then rolled with it. I could be wrong I don't know him personally but it just doesn't add up, the day he got benched and it doesn't make much sense to me.
@Zaxel Maybe the cops should stop killing people just because they’re frustrated with them.

@LeopoldBloom I agree lmao
