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.

I’ve heard that the target they looted is funding the police station and refused to sell tear gas victims milk or water.

But I’ve seen a lot of outrage over small businesses getting burnt and looted which I dont agree with.

Then again, It’s not my right to agree or disagree with how black people are dealing with this level of injustice, which I’ve never had to experience because of privilege. But I feel their outrage and understand why this is all happening. For a society that treats people with such violence sometimes the only way to be heard is violence.

@lolaloved growing up Native American I can't say I honestly understand the struggle of the black community but I've seen the struggle on the reservation within my own community. This anger is not unwarranted and if that is the case that Target got what it deserved.
@Mmagirl Many people are unaware that the police kill Native Americans at a higher percentage than black people.
