See what you keep doing?
"Cops" - plural.
It wasn't the cops that started this shitstorm.
It was ONE cop.
And you think they all are guilty.
Your use of the plural proves it.
But the "protesters"?
Well - there might have been isolated incidents by a few bad people....
Sure...
That's fair.
This particular shitstorm, true enough. But his actions don’t exist in a vacuum. From what I’ve read, this city has a police culture of treating blacks unfairly. The death of George Floyd was the trigger, not the cause. If you kick people long enough and hard enough, don’t be surprised when they eventually kick back.
The riots are not excusable, but they are certainly understandable.
