I know people are gonna hate me for this but I need to get this out there:
All these protests, especially the one yesterday where they looted target and lit AutoZone on fire, are for a reason. People might say these are wrong, that (1/?)

"You shouldn't fight violence with more violence," but you know what? You have to fight fire with fire, as well. If these protests are the kinds of things that need to happen, then I am 100% for them and I support them completely. I mean, just look at what minority groups.. (2/?)

had to go through around the world in the 20th century to earn basic rights like suffrage and to drink from the same water fountain as white men. And now, in the 21st century if we have to fight like this just... (3/?)

so African Americans can BREATHE without a cop trying to kill them, then we will do it. Plus, now I feel like it's the 50s and 60s all over again in terms of racist mentalities and violence, so we will do whatever it takes. I really hope people... (4/?)

don't give up and they don't stop these kinds of protests. In fact, these need to be going on across the country. I want my kids and their black classmates to grow up in an equal, non-dangerous world and I want them to read about this in their... (5/?)

history textbooks as the revolution that finally stopped racist murders of innocent black Americans.

Think what you want about this, but there is one question we all must ask ourselves: will we do whatever it takes to create a safe, equal country for everyone, or ... (6/?)

will we ignore injustice and let our fellow Americans keep being murdered by blood thirsty racists?

Who gives a shit about a Target or an AutoZone? You can rebuild those things, but you can't give people's lives back.

End of thread.
