As I have pointed out at least twice already in this forum: in the USA today blacks make up around 40% of the prison population (commit around 40% of crime) and account for around 40% of fatalities at the hands of police. BLM 2020 is essentially just hot air, paranoia, white guilt, victim mentality, hand wringing and bluster born of, well, ignorance, frankly....oh yeah, and 12 years a slave etc ad infinitum.
Now a campaign against police brutality WITHOUT the racial element? Count me in.
If you respond to the race argument with "So have whites", you lose, and totally miss the point.
You are not advocating equality by using this bullshit argument. Just fucking drop it!
