    The problem you are getting here (having read some of the comments above), is that, as soon as you look at is as 'us V them'.. there lies the problem. If you cannot simply acknowledge the discrimination that any group faces and only come on here to say that "whites guys were beaten up too", "blacks are just as much racist to each other", blah blah blah - then that says a lot about you. It is as if when a racist incident occurs, all the racists start getting defensive. If you are not a racist then you wouldn't need to defend yourself, it is as simple as that. The fact is, the states is where the BLM movement should be.. there should only be peaceful protests everywhere else to show support. How many more killings of a black person by a cop will we have til they start prosecuting them?

    My point exactly I stated in all my posts that it was about division on racial n socio economic terms
    It’s about the system creating a them n us n dividing us

    Once we start to see we r all together the 99% all think the same
    We want to be safe we want some sort of comfort economically and we want to be happy and safe with our nearest and dearest
    The issues occur when people don’t have all of those things and there’s a system to ensure that they don’t

    If people all hot together there would be a change and who doesn’t want the change the people higher up the food. Hange
    They don’t want to lose any power or financial benefits
    They don’t have any qualms about people suffering as long as they get what they want
