It's a great shame if racial mixing cannot work in the US.

It may not be fixable under this US constitution. Not because the constitution was realised by slave owners, although that doesn't help. But that it was inflexible when it came to making the changes required peacefully, as a matter of politics and law, prior to the Civil War. It just doesn't accommodate evolutionary change well. And so the violence-producing tensions in US society are always present.

That inflexibility, in my view, is the root of nearly all of the US' problems. Not racial divisions, which are a symptom.

No, that tactic is illegal.

The total lack of humanity, that he had his hands in his pocket, was told Mr Floyd didn't have a pulse, and kept his knee on his neck for nearly another three minutes. OMG

Even with the video, he wasn't arrested right away & set in motion an apocalypse nationwide.
The other three are still free...

As I've said, 'race' is a huge problem in this country.
Justice isn't blind, the law is not equal, the scab has been ripped off, we are hemorrhaging.
