Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

I don't complain about something if I don't have some kind of outline of a proposal to deal with it.

I want unicorns with rainbows coming out of their derriers too.  I don't expect politicians to figure out how.

Provide something tangible and concrete in terms of proposals or to me, it's just whining and virtue signaling, and socializing.

That obviously is not my point.  If I want equal treatment, I would propose something, anything, that a politician might do to promote that.

You can't change people's minds about racism by legislation, at least not short term.  If black folks feel that businesses keep an eye on them without merit in a store, you can't fix that, period.  In my experience around here, the vast majority of people working in any store are African American anyway.  The majority of the police are African American.

If you don't have proposals, I don't have anything other than sympathy, and figure "Well, I don't know what to DO about your problems."

Not every problem has a solution at least not short term.

So, I still don't know what the protesters WANT out of this other than rainbows and unicorns.

So, the protesters want outcomes that are broadly impossible to achieve by legislation.

And the politicians will throw them a sop that has no chance of DOING anything in real life.  And the protesters will come out again the next time they judge some police action as being improper.

I view this as exceedingly immature and childish.

Maybe you view it that way, but various legislatures are passing various bills in response to the protests, so it's clear they don't view it as childish, and it's clear the protests are getting things done, so I'm not sure I get your point.
