Conversation could potentially lead to a solution, and that is not desired by posters on this forum.

See how that feels?
 
The conversation is being had. One side is yelling to drown out the other voices.

Hi, I’m a “Rioter”. I want a conversation. I wouldn’t have to protest if we held cops accountable. It’s way better then what’s escalated.
 
Since this seems to be detailing a bit, the article discusses how national media has largely ignored the violent nature and destruction of the rioting that has occured all over the country for the past two months.

The victims of the property destruction are mainly minority owned business and the minorities who live in those communities are the ones dealing with the fear that goes along with having violence unfold in their communities.

The riots, the destruction they cause, and who is causing the destruction is being ignored or worse deliberately obfuscated.

Why are the stories of those harmed over the past two months as a result of these riots being ignored? And why are these riots still referred to as protests?
 
Kind of hard to have a conversation when the new Godwin’s law is in effect.

I am afraid that this is just babbling. To have a conversation, you have to use precise language and define your terms. So, lets start.
First, who are the “cops”? Specific individuals in specific places, or just all members of law enforcement?
About accountablity - what methods are your proposing to achieve accountability? Please be specific and real.

Police officers of all forms of law enforcement. They need reform, they need to not be doing as much as they do. I believe with proper de-escalation training and the proper reallocation of resources we can make everyone reasonable happy.
 
Respectfully, this article has nothing to do about police brutality.
I posted this article to discuss it’s contents, please do not derail the discussion.

I was asked a straight forward question.
