This is one of the most heartening and pleasing photos I have ever seen. It gives us some hope that this sick, fecked up world might just have a slim chance of redemption, because it shows the passive, moral, MODERATE majority finally stepping up and being counted against the mob minority.
Violence, Lawlessness, and Anarchy, transcend colour or creed or race, it will destroy America from within as it will destroy any country where such elements are allowed to manifest and grow unchecked.
These courageous black citizens have 'picked up the ball' and it is now up to the authorities in the USA to 'run with it' and begin a series of very public investigations into racism and the increasing number of highly questionable deaths of black people whilst being arrested or whilst in police custody.
The American government OWE as much to these moderate blacks and if they try to sweep this very real issue 'under the carpet' once this latest civil outrage has settled, then they will only be scoring an 'own goal' with that ball they've been handed by them.
