Shoulda, woulda, could democracy!!!

JoeBiden policies at work in California!

You are right what about the protesters taking over the police station and City hall Seattle

Had we killed Hitler as a baby WWII wouldn’t have happened

Had there been a law against murder these people would be alive! Oh wait.

8 years of Barack Obama and what?

What does “no-knock warrants” mean?

Because banning stuff means it never happens.

Think not. These killings would still have happened. If anyone thinks a useless swamp can fix this, is the swamp. Change will come from community reform....

And if we banned abortion there would be Millions alive today. 😉

FYI- that’s called reform, not defund. Sounds like a good idea.

We need to end police brutality, NOW.

No no no. They would have found another way to kill them. Lynching was outlawed; didn’t stop the police from finding other ways to get away with killing.

Yeah. Im sure if we just made killing somebody illegal Floyd would still be alive

Or if they just listens to the police 🤨

Protesters heartened by swift reform, but vow broader changeIn the two weeks since George Floyd’s killing, cities around the nation have begun implementing changes such as banning chokeholds.
