I don't think that's enough anymore. There needs to be a change to hold the police accountable because just arresting the 4 cops and doing nothing to change the current system is going to have history repeat itself again and again.
The quickest way to calm the situation down and move forward is to just say "we hear your voices and understand. We will make reform and changes to America for the better". Of course the changes have to be made.
Instead this is going in the opposite direction

Unfortunately, and anecdotally, I would guess that your experience is the exception to the rule.
The amount of racism that permeates the military is widespread and insidious.
I would say I could see them finally coming to their senses over this, but then I remember they're all racist rich assholes that value money over human lives.
These are the same people who drone striking weddings, and shot up a party with helicopter mounted machine guns.
When you so just cannot get yourself to charge a cop who murdered a dude in broad daylight with people watching with actual murder that you'd rather see big cities go up in flames and send the fucking military.
The only way that's possible is if there are actual serious issues within the US. Which there are and have been for centuries. Russia didn't have to fuel anything. We are doing it 100% to ourselves.
Cadet Bone Spurs is about to further militarize law enforcement in response to protests about militarized and unaccountable law enforcement
They really don't know any other way

Yeah, anyone I know who's active duty is really only in it for the GI Bill.
Yes. Because they know they have the best chance of coming out of the other side alive. They're authoritarians at their core and lust for unchecked power.
Like I said "a vast majority", no doubt there's going to be some enlisted white supremacist that are eager to follow that order.
I know this is going to sound fucked upped but there's a difference when it's Americans on American soil.
They don't have a conscience, they want to maintain power at all costs. That's more important to them than the well being of the country's people. They want it to burn so they can justify a race war. They are the ones escalating.
Will they be brave enough to defy any unjust orders and defend the people of this country against tyranny?
Republicans are the dog in the "This Is Fine" meme with the house on fire.
Civil Rights was over 50 years ago and yet here we are soooooooooooo
Trump is the symptom, not the cause. He was created by their actions and rose to power with their vote.
So, yes, they would rather let the nation burn than turn on him, because he represents everything that they are.
The time has passed for that. The public outrage and overall sentiment is demanding for more. In addition to multiple flashpoints cropping up due to the pol;ice brutality, this will just be a vicious cycle. And all will fall on this shitstain.
this HAS to be the point where Republicans stand up and say no...right? they can't want this can they?
do they get to keep being racist? of course they will let everything burn for that
A reminder that DOD's Mark Esper stated this about the protest response: "I think the sooner that you mass and dominate the battlespace, the quicker this dissipates and we can get back to the right normal."
From what I can tell, most of his base see it as "Dems destroying themselves". So they'd happily watch their state's cities burn/undergo martial law to "own the libs".
