Clearly this civil unrest is just getting worse and worse. We have a president in charge just making everything worse. Everyones stress levels are already high from this pandemic...and then rioting starts?

Fuck. We sure are going to remember 2020 well. Theres a large Black Lives Matter gathering being organized tonight in my city. I might attend. Something has to change, and people are FINALLY just starting to listen.

Keep pushing, protestors.

The worst part is our fucking president is actively egging it on by talking about shooting protestors and using obvious racist dogwhistles.

All during his battle with Twitter while a pandemic rages.

Yep. He needs to step down from his presidency, or be forced out of office at this point.

This is a whole different level. These riots are in cities all over the US now. Minneapolis, NYC, Kentucky, LA, and Denver all had large protests last night.

Black Lives Matter has organized rallies in other major cities tonight, with thousands expected at each rally.

You wonder if white supremacist groups are thinking about heading to Minneapolis to get a little loot and shoot in.

This is the kind of thing that our president obliquely (or not so obliquely) condones.

Hope those protesters are ok.

You also have to remember that we have 40000000 people out of work. That fans the flames hard.

The protesters have a clear goal in mind but no one wants to listen, especially the police force that is exacerbating this situation right now.

There also wasn't a pandemic and 35 million unemployed people when Ferguson happened

I'm not really talking about this specific incident, more the big picture of law enforcement in this country.
