What's this?

I’m not one to butt into a good argument

but if you don’t think there is systemic racism in numerous jurisdictions across this country, you’re out of your GD mind. Heaven forbid we expect more of law enforcement than the common criminals, gang members, etc. who kill.

Doesn’t mean cops are bad. My lifelong best friend is a cop. But there is some inexcusable shit happening. And there is also some inexcusable overreacting via riots, etc.

So, now that I’ve typed more than I intended, the point is, there’s a whole shit ton of gray in the world...and it takes a stubborn/ignorant mind to paint it all white or black.
