I just want to add that I saw a post listing many of the victims by pic and by name, While I knew of the high profile victims I had no idea not a clue about how SOP murder of POC by cop across the country has become. Obviously I'm a white guy but I always find myself of a similar mind on many issues , I am starting to see how the white privilege operates, I see how it in and of itself is systemic , Then I realized why it is so prevalent in white folk , first, they don't even realize it, second ,generation after generation have been brainwashed in all societal interactions, The only way people get past this crap is to apply critical thinking , don't let yourself be sucked into the B.S., The PTB wants strife and separation between the 99%, Think, talk, solve the Damn problems and unite against those that would crush the souls of the people.
Black lives matter, Freedom and equality for all!

I'm sure I'll be crucified somehow,So have at it.
