When it comes to justice the BLM are not the only ones being persecuted. It’s a class thing. Difference is that the poor rednecks are isolated and their treatment does not get the publicity.
If you want another incident to understand that guns and badges are being given to sociopaths and sadists it is not difficult to find many. The 2020 Karen Garner (white 73yo female with dementia) incident in Loveland, Colorado just made it to the forefront now because the family got a lawyer and sued their a$$e$.
If you watch the end of Cry Freedom, about Steven Biko, they list the cause of death in custody of many other victims like Biko. It’s alarmingly similar to many of the police departments in the USA, and perhaps around the world. It may have been South Africa, but the policing was much the same. The USA’s apartheid has not been as transparent since the 60’s, but the policing has remained the same.

This is a rerun (from some other “Views of …” maybe?). Worth it: Excellent, imo.

Those in other nations dispassionately see what has been occurring the U.S. for many years.
