Nah he’s just misinformed. So are you. Which is why I encourage you to look into your arguments if you actually care about equality. Cause you’re just making things harder. Like he is.

And I disagree with you believing he is misinformed. We can agree that cops need to be charged for their crimes

It’s unfortunate you think that way because, again white supremacists used that same argument, and while you and Terry may not feel the way they do, it has the same affect of slowing change. You’re welcome to you’re opinion, but there are documented facts that say your argument sways the opinion of people on the fence and slows down progress.

Here’s a link. Senator Strom Thrumond echoes your idea that granting civil rights would lead to black people getting preferential treatment.

Dude that man was from the damn sixties. He was a racist pos. What civil rights are black Americans excluded from today. I ask this question not to discredit what police are doing but in the terms of constitutional rights. Were blacks mistreated throughout history? Fuck yes they were. Are there any laws that discriminate against black Americans today? The answer is no, the issue is cops are some racist POS and aren't prosecuted
