Current Affairs George Floyd and Minneapolis Unrest

Not at all, that's just one of very many tweets and comments I've seen that are similar from all sides of the political spectrum.

The enemy has become "white people" and I really think that is a counter productive thing to think.

White people are the enemy though.

Jesus over here the only people who ever talk about racism is white people deciding what is and isn't racist. Tbh sick of hearing a white person determining what racism is. Amazing that white people feel they are special enough to tell any minority what offends them on their behalf, aren't they nice......

Oh and if a black person talks about racism then their opinion is judged by a white person based on who they are. If they dont qualify for the white person level of appropriate opinion then they are dismissed. Yes I have seen it even on here.

Just winds me up. How about white people don't try to control racism like it's their own responsibility. How about we start acting like we should and not giving a damn what anyone's skin colour is.

Judging from the reaction emojis, a particular someone clearly thinks it contained something funny.

Imagine my surprise.

White Nationalists would never do something to make African Americans look bad because that would be racist.

Shut up you blinkered ignorant fool.

You know full well that wasn't what the LOL was about.

Pretty sure it's about your stupid comments about racism that he was laughing at.

steve you’re a clown who supports this, just be honest for once

not what I said, but not shocked at your need for a strawman...

Aye aye lads what’s going on here?

 

[davek]

I'm equally appalled and impressed - appalled at the lack of social distancing, impressed with the solidarity.

He's claiming I condone violence and wanted destruction. Pretty much too deflect his poor taste ignorant comments on racism.

Ok so perhaps this is a good time to promote pragmatism, and state that any form of racism is wrong and won’t be tolerated here.

George floyd message is getting lost in this. Destroying their own towns is not helping.

True but neither is doing nothing. Or talking or anything basically.

The one thing you can say about the rioting is that its making it a global news story that wont go away.
