It's easy to condemn rioting, violence, and looting. But one also has to condemn the reasons why rioting happens. And that's a place that many don't want to go.

Yes.  And you can stop right there.  

You see, this is the problem.  I don't see a single person on this message board, nor do I know a single person in real life, that's NOT condemning police killing black people for no reason.

So there's no need for your second sentence above.  At least, not when discussing with rational people.  And if you're discussing with irrational people, then no point you attempt to make will make any difference anyway.

But the rioting and the looting and the killing sure as shit will make a difference in the perception of those enacting the violent acts, even and especially among rational people.

So stop with the first sentence.  And then have a conversation about that first sentence.  

They tore down Kenosha's Confederate Dinosaur Statue.

That dinosaur actually fought against slavery.

Heh.

As noted, we're all against unwarranted police killings of civilians.  I don't think we need to say that, really.

We're all against rioting and arson and looting and anything else of that ilk that is illegal.

I suspect we all support good police officers.  I suspect we all understand that any large population of humans will have some who are "bad", either incompetent, nefarious, sociopathic, on some power ego trip, whatever.

There, I've said it, if anyone disagrees, fine with me.  If not, it's said for us all, here.

I too am against bad things and support good things

Thank you for your support.

While ESPN was on for background noise I got to hear millionaires  Doc Rivers and Stephen A Smith preach to me how hard it is to be black in America.  Rivers tearfully said white people don’t have to worry about traffic stops ending badly.

I was relieved to hear that.  See, I have thought all along if my son willfully disobeyed and fought with cops that there was a chance he could get shot, but Doc Rivers assured me that wasn’t the case.

Oh, and apparently Jemele Hill thinks present day America is as bad as Nazi Germany.  Read that again and let it really soak in.
