[QUOTE="refineryworker05, post: 3085887, member: 66082"] Your first mistake is your belief that systematic police abuse is in isolated areas. Any serious look at policing data indicates that black Americans face rampant abuse all around the nation. Your second mistake is the idea that you can take police reforms "national". The efforts of BLM with local citizens was targeting their local police departments for reform using the federal government, trying to organize citizens, and to win local elections. Your third mistake is thinking that others matter in this fight. If black Americans waited on others to see their issues.... Who is they and why do "they" matter? If you aren't black, if you don't live in the places where there are protests for local police department reforms, what is "theys" stake in it one way or another? "They" are always going to be opposed cause "they" have always been opposed. If you honestly think you'll see that the problem for "them" is "they" don't want black people demanding equal treatment before the law and that's their stake in this thing and why they are angry.
