I never said I didn't care rioting doesn't solve anything is all I said.

Pull an all-nighter join in until the early hours and catch the first train

No bother, but then maybe don’t encourage others to do something you are unable to commit to personally especially in an area you don’t live in

I will not be silenced on this matter and nobody should, you can protest in so many different ways and doesnt always have to involve being there in person every single day

Don’t be so dramatic! Encourage people to march where you live is fine by me

[The Slim Reaper]

I'll be organising a march round cheries house from tomorrow at 12. Bring a sign and a bottle of covid.

Once I've been able to find a weak spot and cross the crocodile infested moat, I'll lower the drawbridge to let the rest of you in.

Walked to Trafalgar and passed through the peaceful protests earlier as it’s only about an hour walk or so from me. You can’t really go to a park or anywhere at the moment in London without social distancing being a thing of the past, so might aswell go somewhere much more important than topping up a suntan.

He obviously has statistics to base this on, and clearly isn't ranting into his screen.

I’ve released a few extra hungry snappers just for you

Every single police officer who has done nothing to fight against the systematic racism in the American police or the injustice behind the murder of innocent black people is corrupt. Silence is violence

What are they meant to do, apart from not take part in it themselves?

Not nothing, like close to all of them are doing! Protest, strike, speak up against anyone showing racist behaviour, demand change.
And not stand against people saying “Black Lives Matter”, it shows you have no respect for the message they are presenting

Definition of a sheltered & entitled mindset to classify a police force of millions in this way based on the actions of what you're seeing from barely hundreds (in a time of total chaos - which doesn't justify a lot of these, most police attacks in these clips were out of line, but something to keep in mind still). These people keep you safe and keep order on the daily. It's a tough job point blank and some do their job horribly, racistly for sure but this kind of post blaming the majority of them over a couple really unfortunate events shows no type of respect for what so many of them actually do and how many also die in the line of duty. Looking at it in a microscope pretty much and change is needed but not looking at it in the way that many are. It's a "Cops are all evil" movement in many eyes.

Being a police officer is a job with more scrutiny than thanks, who also don't get paid enough for what so many of them do. Having some corrupt, asshole cops working with them doesn't change that. The lowest common denominators are the ones to blame, not an entirety/majority.

Not to take away from cases like George Floyd where people are horrifically, unjustly murdered on the scene, it is an AWFUL thing to see. But it's literally like blaming the protesters that want change based on the actions of the hundreds that are acting in poor judgment

I think the system needs changes on what these cops are allowed to do (like a knee to neck seems totally unnecessary) and to have better checks on the mindsets of these cops. Look deep within and have some immediate firings of cops who have questionable pasts on the job or taking a poor stand/stance right now in this time.

Just not true but I agree 100% that more cops should be coming out and showing support right now. That is one of the best things we could see during this time (if genuine which a lot of them that are doing it seem to be)

With all due respect your a privileged white boy in America so you wont get the same treatment as black people

Well, it's not untrue. It's like when all of the abuse that goes on in Hollywood was rising to the surface, all of the people that knew things and kept quiet were complicit in the abuse. People have all kinds of reasons for staying quiet ranging from not wanting to lose their jobs, money and status to even more sinister motives but either way silence is complicity.

So he’s not allowed an opinion?

It’s a bit naive and also insulting to say the majority of police are racist/Corrupt because of the small minority
