  1. It’s only been a short 54 years ago when the civil rights bill was passed and that was only on paper so the bad feelings and treatment of black Americans is still with us and we have a long ways to go and hopefully the young will correct it

  2. We bring change to our country by teaching our kids how to love others,how to forgive and move on not how to destroy properties,churches, not how to steal and get away with it.
    Yes we can make as change.

    1. Marko Goldman..”how to forgive and move on!?!?” You probably are a nice guy but believe me if I say “Marko Goldman you and many many more just don’t understand … wish you all the best and STAY SAFE

    2. Good luck with that. Unfortunately black people have been enabled, coddled and supported and told they are a victim all at the same time.

    3. Ur asking us to move on after the destruction of some buildings but how can we when u didnt stand & confront the destruction of black people when Regans war on drugs began after monies made from drug & arm deals to the sandinistas, when the infrastructure of black neighborhoods collapsed due to the removal of capital by banks & businesses, when the quality of education looked more like separate but equal, when 3 generations of black men were removed from their homes & communities by over policing & the school to prison pipeline…(let me catch my breath)…when impoverished & under served communities struggle with obesity bc there are only convience stores, fast food restaurants & liquor stores as a replacement for grocery stores…I could go on about the effects of systemic racism to black people…But I won’t…However I will leave U with this thought…U have the expectation that black people should pull ourselves up by our bootstraps…BUT HOW CAN WE IF WE DON’T HAVE FUCKN BOOTS…

    1. My deepest condolences to George Floyd family.. but, shouldn’t they be wearing masks??🤬🙏😔

  3. I didn’t think a person could be so ugly inside and out. Well, Joy Reid proved me wrong.

    1. That sad story of an American hero dying at the hands of cowardly protesters will never be told by the MSM, they support ANTIFA and chaos.

    2. @B. T. I can’t find it anywhere on CNN or MSNBC YouTube channels. Fox News has a story about it.

    3. @Adam
      You’re on brick short of a load.
      Or if that doesn’t work for you.
      The lights are on, but nobody’s home.
      Ciao, I’ve got work to do..

  4. Funny … the Dems …. falling all over each other to be seen at Floyd’s service …. What happened to Social Distance … I thought Religion was nonessential ? Read more ………
