Your health insurance will be next. Walmart sold your shopping details to your insurer. Bought too many cookies and chips? Your rates go up

If you think civilians stand a chance against the largest most powerful military the world has ever seen i have a bridge to Hawaii to sell you.

Most Americans can't even pass the minimum for military training yet some how you think a bunch of overweight chain smokers with Walmart rifles is going to "stand a chance".

I find disarming a knife from an 11 year old is easier than disarming a gun

So all women appointed by Trump?

Better red than dead, living in poverty, in a police state, with no rights, and no checks and balances

You must have missed the last 200+ years of american history. If Americans supported every group denied their freedom as citizens we wouldn't be here

Never understood thanking soldiers. Why am I thanking you for preserving corporate interests abroad using the steel of an assault rifle?

So mainly the brown women

I'll actually agree with that, but since she's white the country wont move on from it in a week

No the issue is, NO ONE CARES UNTIL THE VICTIM IS WHITE. If ppl actually gave a damn that minority ppl have been unjustly killed (EXACTLY LIKE THIS) since the dawn of this country then Trump would've never been elected.

You're not on our side if you only show up when it affects you. You literally did skip all the rest. If you didnt skip it there wouldnt be a Wikipedia article completely devoted to law enforcement shooting unarmed black ppl. If you didnt, qualified immunity wouldn't exist. If you didnt most cops would be charged let alone convicted. What exactly has changed since George Floyd?

I guarantee you the vast majority of black and brown households are all thinking/saying the exact same thing. Well she's white so maybe something will actually happen.

Considering this has happened to black ppl since the end of slavery, THERES NEVER BEEN ENOUGH OUTRAGE. If there was something would've actually changed by now. Thats the entire point.

Im in my mid 30s and my mom was born the same year as Emmett Till. Shes seem the Alabama Church Bombing, MLK assassination, Fred Hampton murder, Rodney King, and George Flyod. Why are you all so confused how we respond to shit? HISTORICALLY nothing is a problem until it affects white ppl
