The best (sarcasm) line that I've read is that Brooks "tussled" with LE. Ummm, no, that's called assault. Brooks assaulted the officers during the course of resisting arrest. I'm all for prosecuting any color LE from any agency for the use of excessive force. But this is not that.
That's not all I'm sick of. I'm sick of elected officials leveraging situations to their political advantage, such as this mayor has done. I'm sick of hearing the myths of white privilege and systemic racism. I'm sick of digital programming: television, MSM, SM, etc. perpetuating these myths. The entire justice system needs broad reform for all, including prison reform. I'm sick of BLM making it all about one race. The people who are gathering and violently rioting are no better than mob underlings extorting businesses for the boss. How many millions or billions of dollars have been donated to BLM by large companies not wanting their retail stores looted? In most states, that could be considered as acting in concert. And I wonder where those dollars will end up? Will they truly be spent directly helping those most in need? Or, as in the case of Shaun King, will they end up in the pocket of a serial non-profit starter/kingpin who makes promises to the oppressed, takes their donations, and doesn't deliver? But....he's still out there spewing his rhetoric. AMOO
YES! The list of attendees of the funeral today included a number of people that are so focused on their own political goals that they can’t see or don’t care that they are contributing to the destruction of their own city. IMO.
