I ABSOLUTELY believe police brutality of black people in America is disproportionately cruel compared to other races. But I also wanted to bring up this example of police brutality against a white female teenager.
The police got away completely unscathed and she had to plead guilty, receiving a 1 year probation sentence.
This young lady could have been your sister, your daughter, your wife, or your girlfriend. Not being polite doesn't mean you deserve to be beaten.
ALL OF US should be united against injustice.
Unfortunately, I'm coming to the realization that we really need a much more politically active citizenry. Especially for local politics. And we need more great talent to work in public roles and not go private. It's really not something we can all just cruise and watch Netflix, enjoy restaurant food, travel.. and not get involved in. We need to all straight up put in hours if not dozens of hours a year, participating in our local politics and local governance. And that's hard if not impossible, but if we can get more Bernies and AOCs in politics, we'd all be so much better off.
