12·7 days agoI’ll actually agree with that, but since she’s white the country wont move on from it in a week

16·7 days agoNo the issue is, NO ONE CARES UNTIL THE VICTIM IS WHITE. If ppl actually gave a damn that minority ppl have been unjustly killed (EXACTLY LIKE THIS) since the dawn of this country then Trump would’ve never been elected.
You’re not on our side if you only show up when it affects you. You literally did skip all the rest. If you didnt skip it there wouldnt be a Wikipedia article completely devoted to law enforcement shooting unarmed black ppl. If you didnt, qualified immunity wouldn’t exist. If you didnt most cops would be charged let alone convicted. What exactly has changed since George Floyd?
I guarantee you the vast majority of black and brown households are all thinking/saying the exact same thing. Well she’s white so maybe something will actually happen.

12·7 days agoConsidering this has happened to black ppl since the end of slavery, THERES NEVER BEEN ENOUGH OUTRAGE. If there was something would’ve actually changed by now. Thats the entire point.
Im in my mid 30s and my mom was born the same year as Emmett Till. Shes seem the Alabama Church Bombing, MLK assassination, Fred Hampton murder, Rodney King, and George Flyod. Why are you all so confused how we respond to shit? HISTORICALLY nothing is a problem until it affects white ppl

37·7 days agoI wish you all would stop this shit. Im not even trying to sound condescending or holier than thou BUT WE ALL KNOW her being a white woman changes things. We’ve sent brown CHILDREN to prison camps, how is this any worse? Plus Minneapolis is like 60% white. Its not this took place in El Paso or Baltimore.
Ignoring that fact is what put us in this position in the first place. Nothing is a problem until it starts affecting white ppl

0·1 month agoTHATS. HOW. TRUMP. WON.
How have ppl not realized not being Trump can’t be your entire platform!?!?
Never understood thanking soldiers. Why am I thanking you for preserving corporate interests abroad using the steel of an assault rifle?
