If you have not seen this video already, I encourage you to see it. Especially if you disagree with the premise. A lot of good points in this video just want to share and go through where my mind goes when someone says they have a study about something that has been very controversial since WW2. Some of you may be thinking “what did he just say?” Some people may be thinking only the past 4 years it has been a problem since George Floyd died on May 25th, 2020. I am not this old, but some may be thinking back to the 1992 LA riots. According to History.com, the 92’ LA riots stemmed from 4 LAPD officers being found not guilty over the video of the brutal beating of Rodney King. Want to add that he did not die from this event, this is not me justifying their actions, just people that I have talked to about it made the assumption that he passed away from the beating and that is not true.
What I would like to bring to your attention is the understanding that communities should not have to suffer when these sorts of atrocities occur. Yes, it is something to be enraged about. Enraged is defined as: very angry, furious. This will never justify the damage of over 1 billion dollars in local businesses and the killing of 54 people from some articles up to 60 people on others. This is not a pro black sentiment either, this is however a reminder for those who read that your community suffers when boiling points are reached. It is always a shame to see what people justify as a reaction to something they are infuriated about.
As angry as I may get that people are still advocates for the socialist, communist, Marxists ideology, you still have to take in to account the number of lives that have been taken through these ideas and that the disruption of other people’s livelihood is a contradiction to the idea that we want the best for each other. The first 3 days into the 92’ riots Rodney King himself is on TV asking the question “can’t we all just get along?” If you are that worried about police interactions, I can only advise you to either stop breaking the law, don’t shoot at cops, or just simply keep your mouth shut. “Anything you say or do, can and will be used against you in a court of law.” That line right there should tell you OK, won’t do anything, won’t say anything. Of course there will always be one asshole cop, just as there will be someone at work that bugs you. In life not everyone is going to get along.
I want to make it clear; this is not an article specified for the incidents that occurred. This I am writing is to make people aware or even just as a reminder of their own anger. The lack of logic that can follow when you feel like you have no place to go with your anger based on your status of how you live and where you grew up is a danger to you and everyone around you. (Video link here 2:02) As heated as politics can get, politics being defined as: the activities associated with the governance of a country or other area, especially the debate or conflict among individuals or parties having or hoping to achieve power. So don’t forget that if something you oppose infuriates you, then you losing your shit is giving power to those who want it over you. Bangov Actual, out.
