*yawn* another radical leftist who cannot critically assess information.
Studies show that conservatives read both conservative and liberal news while liberals only read their own.
I've undoubtedly noticed a pattern of leftists attacking the leanings of a source to discredit them when it reports on something they don't like.
The explanation as to how burning down an affordable housing complex scheme or projects, supermarkets, and local businesses owned by black Americans or non-European (white) Americans, is a righteous backlash against the myth of systematic racism is gonna be a good one.
It's hard to blame systematic racism when the neighborhood was destroyed by the people that live in it.
Hold officers accountable who use excessive force. But there’s no evidence of widespread racial bias.

There is no widespread bias or systemic racism in America's police forces. This is backed by studies from Harvard, MSU and Univ. Of Maryland.
Blacks are 24% LESS likely to be shot and killed by police than blacks. While non-blacks are more likely to experience use of force that isnt fatal.
Districts with a higher proportion of black police officers, have higher proportions of blacks shot by police. This is due to simple demographics.
Police are more likely to shoot non-blacks first before being attacked than blacks.
Fatal shootings broken down by race trend with violent crime by race.
Young black men commit homicides at 10 times the rate of white and Hispanic young men COMBINED.
The George Floyd incident was wrong, and the officer deserves to face the consequences of his actions, as it was killing.
But you are not going to read this in most of the media in the USA but George Floyd was not innocent he would rob people on the street, break into homes, and was a violent criminal.
The head of the Minneapolis police union says George Floyd’s “violent criminal history” needs to be remembered and that the protests over his death are the work of a “terror…

But every other officer shouldn't have to pay for the actions of one man. The vast majority of officers are just normal people like you and me, with families they would like to go home to.
With that being said, he has been arrested and is facing charges, what purpose does the rioting, looting, and destruction serve? None.
This isnt about George Floyd, or equality, fighting racism, police brutality, etc. it never was. It is about selfish, racist, and destructive people looking for a reason to be selfish and destructive. The death of a man is no excuse to brutally beat, stab, shoot, and kill others or destroy businesses. It is about continuing to push a false narrative that racism is still rampant in the United States. Does it still exist? Yes, unfortunately. Is it as widespread as the media would like you to believe? I don't think so. White on black incidences become national headlines, while all others are pushed to the side because they don't fit the narrative, or 'people of colour'-why is this incredibly racist and outdated term promoted by non-Europeans? It is akin to how American blacks, Asians, and latinos promote actual racism by getting deeply offended by their silly micro-agressions or someone using the wrong pronoun all while calling each other actually racist terms like the n-word, 'people of colour', promoting racial segregation, or even claim that people who are biracial, mixed race, have a lighter complexion are not 'really' black African, Latino, Asian, etc.
We can't fight real racism if we keep trying to make everything else about race. It's like the boy who cried wolf. Sometimes it's just about bad people doing bad things.
