Hello I've posted here once or twice about a yr ago read the forum from time to time. If you don't mind I would like to take a crack at that question.First and foremost I would like to say I don't condone looting in anyway it is destructive and counterproductive. BA combination of young people that are angry and a helpless feeling leads to these riots. There's a feeling police to will kill people of color and continue to get off. I've begin to lose count how many times a person in a community of color lost their life to a police officer or some vigilante of course theres cries of let the investigation take place and what happens... 1. The died victim's name gets dragged into the mud and portrayed as a thug. 2. Any witnesses is instantly discredited. 3. If the person is put on trial they always get off bc the jury will always take the word of a cop and they get off. It's the same story over of course until it happens again in a couple of weeks. So yes there's anger. PS I don't condone violence or looting of any manor but honestly I don't know what the answer is anymore (back to the feeling of helplessness). |
