Cops are getting away with killing people. The kill some one get a pension and get to live the rest of there lives with out judgement. Obviously we all know that is wrong, I would hope anyways. That's what's needs to change, this cops are finally getting some judgement but we will see with the trial and all that. The only reason people knew this happened is because some people filmed it. How many times has this happened and we don't know about it?

@LesleeDean That's true. Sometimes cops kill people. Sometimes it's unjustified. But rarely does a cop get off "without judgment" for doing so.

And burning, looting, and injuring or killing the innocent isn't justice against those police who may get away with it.

We only know about Floyd because someone filmed it... And there are cops killed all the time for routine traffic stops and so on... even led into ambushes, that have also been filmed.

@Tycho I totally agree with you that do cops get killed on duty, and that is also injustice. I also agree that the looting and burning isn't going to help or bring about change, but that's only the small percent that the media covers. I went to a protest in my home town everybody was peaceful cops, city council members, and the mayor walked with us. In my opinion, tell me if I'm wrong but I believe that the cops and other people I charge have to be held responsible for their actions as much as the citizens do.

@LesleeDean Indeed, cops, politicians and others in the public trust have to be held accountable for their actions and lack of action... I'd say those in the public trust have to be held to a higher standard. But violent action against the innocent is never acceptable. If a police officer oversteps his authority or even commits some violence or brutality, how can looting and burning someone's business be any kind of solution? A suffered at the hands of B, therefore C punches D in the nose and takes his wallet... Hmmm, I don't see any justification or solution there.

@Tycho I agree with you that burning things and harming innocent people isn't the answer. What I have to wonder is how many of the "roits" there actually were. I seen so many videos of cops beating and pepper spraying people who were peacefully protesting. Honestly it's kinda hard to know the truth, when all the media outlets suck and put ther down spin on things, not just this. I don't doubt that actual riots have and probably will still happen the question is, how do we know for sure that all or most of them have been peaceful or riots? What should we do about the cops that are targeting peaceful protesters who are using there constitutional right?

Yes I don't think harming innocent people who had nothing to do with this is the answer. To me it seems like the state and government isn't listening to it's people and they we are finally fed up with it. To be clear I don't condone the violence and would not do it myself, but I guess I can see way they are so frustrated about the situation.

@dd54 I agree, the goal is destabilize our very way of life, and in my opinion give reason to grant more powers to government. Regarding the last part of your comment, you're probably right, maybe a particular group wouldn't mind you saying such though. I share in your angst on that.
