Their grandparents saw nothing wrong with taking their kids to lynchings, so why would we expect them to see something wrong with police killing Black lives?
We're literally dealing with the children and grandchildren of people who thought executing 14-year-old George Stinney in the electric chair was "justice."

He was so small they had to sit him on top of a stack of books to fit in the electric chair.
We're dealing w/the cultural descendants of the people who tortured, shot and lynched 14-year-old Emmett Till who would've been 79 today.

But we're to believe these current folks were born of immaculate conception - untouched by the society that condoned it just 65 years ago
The point is, the gaslighting and disingenuousness of the people who commit their lives opposing our fight against police murder make more sense when consider the stock they come from.
I guess to them, *not* lynching us but still supporting police murder of us is progress?
