Or counterargument: This is what happens when you tolerate people doing the wrong thing for too long, demonize those who do the right thing, make it socially acceptable to make martyrs out of violent criminals, and give popular support to rioters and looters.
Yes you are right this is what is happening right now. Even though I think the media is motivating people to support violent criminals and is trying to make heroes out of them I think some action is justified. (Not burning down people's stores or similar ofc)
(e.g. only a minority of our population is aware of the fact that George Floyd was a criminal)
It is a fact that blackies are victim to racial profiling, have a worse education due to many flaws in the education system in America and are being put to prison more often than white people...etc
It would be nice if the movement has a face and a clear plan. like this it's nothing than a trend, and that's sad. People have to suffer for this and some cops, acting within their boundaries will obv suffer too.
