  1. Peaceful protest. Excluding burning businesses, beating people, killing a policeman, stacks of bricks magically appearing. The same time, same tactics coordinated across the USA. Like I said… PEACEFUL.

  2. David Dorn wasn't shot and killed in the middle of a "protest". He was killed during a riot. Including the other people killed during these riots, the people have now killed more than the one dead person they were supposedly "protesting" for. George Floyd deserved a vigil, not a riot.

  3. The liberals throw a tantrum and burn down cities and these CEOs give them money. Talk about a payoff. These companies are just being extorted by leftists.

  4. How can we have those “tough conversations” when liberals will just claim that anything they don’t agree with is “hate speech” or “racist”. There is no reasonable talking with these people.

  5. Maybe if your culture glorifies gang violence and idiotic material things like a $1000 pair of sneakers….perhaps you change that first before you blame everyone else about racial inequalities.

  6. Nothing but lies and cover up to let white socialist kids and adults, manipulate young adults of color to destroy their own city's so they can keep the socialist wealthy families in power. Blind fools.

  7. Slavery Jimcrow Redlining Prison Industrial Complex Discrimination (work education real estate minimum wage political and economic inequality) Racsim Police Brutality, I can't breath…

  8. Money. Money 💰 is ALL that matters in a country that embraced Jim Crow and Unaffirmative Action longer than Germany and South Africa embraced virulent race hate and apartheid! America? Cannot change. 4 years of trump and the USA will no longer be a superpower 👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿‼️

  9. Dollar General Company alone could make a simple change that would make the biggest and fastest impact in the black community. They need to have a produce section in all their stores at least the size and level of QT’s produce area or bigger.

  10. America is a capitalist country bordering authoritarianism. It's not only minorities that are affected by such policies. There are still more whites on welfare and more whites are being killed by the police. Do not make this into a minority issue!
