sarahkelliher4 It’s pretty easy to talk to kids when you don’t raise them to be ignorant hateful racists
.It would be nice to have facts. Do only blacks get killed in police custody? What are the stats? Do I tell them to be respectful and say yes sir to law enforcement, or tell them to say F off and spit a big one on them
In reality..Floyd's death was a 'Ropeless Lynching' with a smaller white posse!
“Mommy, why are the scary men building a house in our alley?”

We would never take advice from corrupt news networks or their articles. You would destroy our children
No one is deescalating this. Trump wants to look tough. Democrats and media hate Trump Lao much they are will to let this go on. There is no end point to these protests and riots. People are afraid to go out at night. It’s just a matter of time until other groups attack rioters.
Tonight may be my last day on this earth because of who I am.I may be assassinated tonight because of my affiliation. I can be gunned down in the street because of the clothes I wear. Is it my RACE, SEX OR RELIGION. NO!! I AM A POLICE OFFICER. I feel your pain I too am a minority
