Reply to comment by QuitProfessional5437 in Crowds march through downtown Boston to protest police killing of Tyre Nichols in Memphis by jojenns

That's why it's the best kind of protest. It doesn't bring attention to an issue the media hasn't already decided to tell everyone about. It's doesn't demand any sort of a actual response from the government. But, in ten years, they can claim they "made a difference" as long as no one asks any follow up questions to nail down the timeline. It's win/win!

What do we want?

What's already happening!

When do we want it?

In a timely fashion as determined by the justice system!

What we want is this for not to happen at all ya thick headed dork. What we want is to not continue the racist ideas that infect the bedrock foundations of our laws and policies that allow this injustice.

Tyre Nicholas’s death should never have happened. He should never have had to call out for his mother as he died. He should never have been beat up. He should never have felt like he needed to run away from police.
