Kenosha

[Walter Sobchak]

People of color who still don't have equality in our society have been saying this for 4 centuries. Fuck right outta here with your couple of months. You should be thankful that the goal is equality rather than revenge.

I quote Lincoln's second inaugural address:

Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said "the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether."

And Thomas Jefferson:

I tremble for my country when I remember that God is just and that his justice cannot sleep forever! A revolution is among possible events. The Almighty has no attribute which would side with us in such a struggle!

dude come on, black people are not systemically oppressed in America anymore. and I don't know if you know this or not but most of these rioters are WHITE losers, I'm not trying to say this is a black problem

I disagree with this but leaving that aside for the moment, the cumulative effect of our history has never been accounted for nor has any significant effort or resources been put into undoing their effects.
