Reposted from @ttm_yarn #BlackLivesMatter 🖤 They always have and they always will! #IStandWithMinneapolis 🤘🏿For far too long cops have been able to get away with persecution, brutality and murder against undeserving POC and minorities. George Floyd is by no means the first to lose his life at the hands of the law,and unless action is taken, he won’t be the last either. In the US in 2019 alone, over 1000 people were murdered by police. The sad thing about the cop that killed Floyd being charged with murder, is that this kind of prosecution isn’t the rule, but just the exception. Too many cops have been given amnesty simply for being law enforcement. #ServeAndProtectMyAss 👮‍♀️🚫 The so called “good officers” aren’t off Scott free either; if you have one bad cop and 100 “good” cops, and the 1 bad cop murders a civilian, and the 100 “good” cops don’t stand up against it then you really have 101 bad cops. #StandUp or #StepAside ‼️ In my opinion, the #MinneapolisRiots are long over due. For far too long have people stood back and kept quiet. For far too long have police been able to get away with lethal action with little to no consequences. If this is what it takes to bring upon a new era, where minorities don’t have to be afraid of the police for fear of not living to see another day due to the sickening discrimination still rampant in today’s society, when murder by cops is not only rare, (ideally non-existent, but a person can only dream), but actually taken as seriously as they would if the roles were reversed and followed by a murder conviction EVERY time, then I fully support these riots and I seriously hope that they achieve what they have set out to do without violent backlash from the authorities. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for the brave people out there that real progress and real change comes from their actions!🤞🏼#BLM #FuckPoliceBrutality #HowManyMoreHaveToDie #RiotsBringChange #RiotNotQuiet - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/CA2vaQoJe_K/?igshid=1cqp13o6psugs
