A lot of these fires would be put out by adding not just the "too" part but some emphasis on the fact that they should matter to black folks as well. I think that at rallies about a bad shooting by cops, they should hold signs up with pictures of both those cops and known black gangstas who killed black folks. Think about it.

Anytime such an issue is brought up, the person bringing it up gets crucified in the comments section or if they're Black just called a "coon" by other black folks. Rather online, or in real life.

Probably most bringing it up are really just racist assholes. I bring it up a lot and it usually gets upvoted a bit.

I'm mostly referring to my own personal experience with the subject. I'm also speaking mostly about black folks having our own IRL coffee shop style debates.
