Yes. If police departments properly charged their employees when they break the law, there would not have been protests, rioting, or looting. Trevor Noah's attempt at explaining this is very straightforward but adroit.
- meerita 6y agoBuy, wait, the guilty cop is free? no charges?
- jellicle 6y agoYes, three of the four guilty cops are free with no charges, and the fourth is only being charged due to the protests and would not have been otherwise.
- carb 6y agoI don't know why this was downvoted, it is an entirely true statement.
- meerita 6y agoHe was detained before the protests. Not after. Also, why you would protest BEFORE a sentence.
- jellicle 6y agoFloyd was killed May 25, 2020, the protests began on May 26, 2020 and Chauvin was charged on May 29, 2020. Please don't lie.
- meerita 6y agoAnother point: Persona A goes and kill my neighboor, Can I (or is it good to) go out and do whatever a I want? Like rioting, beating people and destroying other people property?
- carb 6y agoIf you have proof that Person A killed your neighbor, and yet they were being protected from prosecution, of course I would support your right to protest. Sometimes the only way to get change is with large public support. Unfortunately, today's news focuses only on violence and fear mongering. You will eventually realize that peaceful protests have never successfully brought change. You will find yourself screaming into a void, without justice. Today, the police claim that there are only a few Bad cops but most are Good, and ask us to trust that. There are only a few rioting protestors, but most are peaceful. However, the cops across the US are rioting, beating, and destroying the lives of every protestors. Cleveland PD has banned news media from entering downtown. Seattle PD has fired flashbangs and rubber bullets at news reporters. A black CNN reporter and their whole crew was arrested live to avoid the public witnessing what was to take place. Nobody disagrees that rioting and vandalism and burglary are horrible acts. But I would rather the people riot if it leads to lives being saved and equal accountability for all citizens.
