This person should absolutely be prosecuted. Just maybe after all of the folks systemically dismantling the education system and putting teachers and students at risk.

It was an analogy to show how the racist system utilizes folks being oppressed to work against their own best interests.
But you have a good night! Stay safe!

I believe the entirety of the law enforcement system as it currently stands is inherently racist. Law enforcement, regardless of their individual racial or ethnic backgrounds, have shown that they view each other as “blue brothers” with the goal of protecting each other and consolidating power. When Black people were enslaved peoples in the US who did the white owners rely on to enforce and punish the “field slaves”? I sincerely doubt they would have done this to a white man pulled over for a traffic stop.

Because Tyre Nichols was a Black man? Because Black and Brown men are targeted by law enforcement at significantly higher rates than white men?

I didn’t realize wanting to protest against police brutality only counts if the officers are white.
