tbh i'm not really 'upset' that people are rioting

i'm not going to cheer them on for it

and honestly i think they are doing themselves and their own community a disservice

but that's their problem at the end of the day

Its an issue that needs intelligent discussions on how it can be fixed and productive people actively fixing it.

You can't just be productive about fixing a problem without talking about the problem and how it can be fixed.
Did you just promote and defame discussion of a solution in the same post?

That is just a fact.

There is no getting around it and with that point I mentioned why are people so upset at the reactions of black people when this type of thing happens everyday? Some minorities are just fed up with it and its understandable
I'm not arguing with the question you asked. I was just pointing out that you didn't say anything about cops in the OP.

I hear Denzel loves Drone. But only after he's deafened by a terrorist bomb.
