So does anyone else wonder what happened to just listen to the police [View all]

I remember all but endlessly hearing that when black people were killed in their apartments, cars, on sidewalks, in other public spaces, and other places. Yet now we never hear it in regards to the congress people who refuse to abide the metal detectors. Curious.

Well, whites against equal protection under the law FOR black lives get a pass, anyway. better Jan 2021 #6

True. GOP white people I should have said. nt Irish_Dem Jan 2021 #7

Closer, but of course we've all just seen that even being white PLUS being GOP is feeble protection. better Jan 2021 #8
