    Then stop undermining a serious issue with but Walmart and but statues postings. It's simple really. Nobody is condoning looting etc. The impression given by some is that yes racism is bad but it's less bad because of this or that.

    This thread is a but. It's an attempt to draw attention to looting by alleged BLM activists and undermine the main issue. You need to step back and look at your posts because on thread after thread you and others search for opportunities to besmirch and ridicule.
    Yes there are stupid things happening like over the top political correctness. Looting.
    The core of all this though is that a white police officer kept his knee on the neck of a black man for eight minutes and forty six seconds as he pleaded for his life in vain.
    He died. He wasn't the first and he won't be the last unless people are prepared to focus on the problem rather than undermine it.

    where have I said ‘but’ ? By the way, that cop is utter trash for what he did, he’s been sacked n charged. What else do BLM want? Most people agree that it was wrong what he did. Where is this going ?? When does it end??

    It ends when it's been ensured it doesn't happen again. Are you denying that blacks in America are still disadvantaged?
    Saying the cop who killed him has been charged so that's that isn't good enough. People have had enough and you can't blame them.
    And again this thread doesn't help. If you're so concerned about civil unrest where are your threads on Venezuela, Brazil, Syria, Hong Kong, Yemen, Libya? Instead you start a thread about BLM.
    If you were a black American you'd be on the streets just like they are.
    That's me done for the night.

    It probably doesn't help, but it's born out of sheer frustration.

    Of course I'm stuck inside. We've been in lockdown for 12 weeks.

    What more do they want?

    Probably not to be murdered or unfairly treated on a regular basis by law enforcement because of their skin pigmentation. They probably would like the same opportunities as white people so they don’t have to live in poverty and have to scrap for everything in life.

    These blacks, what more do they want?

    That isn't the core of it. The core of it is that a corrupt police officer kept his knee on the neck of a criminal during the course of his arrest for eight minutes and forty six seconds as he pleaded for his life in vain.

    Muddying the water of police brutality by pretending that's a race issue is wrong.
    50 percent of the officers involved were BAME.

    People who intentionally provoke arguments on the internet, what do they do it for? How does it enrich their lives? What flaw do they have that makes them do it?

    It just degenerates into a competition to see who can post the "coolest" reply. It's so very sad, and it's the reason why I hardly post any more.

    After your vile comment I will leave the argument to others. Not going to waste my time going over ground already covered.
    1 My 1st reply was to make you aware of what Fonzies. ( although could look racist if you aren’t aware of his real views) comments were. and his actual view on racism. Should have stopped spoiling his fun given your remark.
    2 Wilko 88 called him a racist hypocrite that’s when I said. Can see this developing.
    I also decided not to reply to your thread. Due to the fact when you commented on the Tarntyke thread “Haven’t even looked at the link, Couldn’t be arsed”
    Let’s just say I didn’t want to do the same with your thread . “I couldn’t be arsed.”
