          And while I think these riots are justified at this point, I beg anyone participating in any kind of protest in these times to PLEASE BE CAREFUL. HIDE YOUR IDENTITIES. The police WILL TRACK YOU. There have been SNIPERS spotted on rooftops in some areas (one area of which is very close to where I live). WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING/EQUIPMENT. Tear gas works by actively attacking the moisture in and on your body, so avoid wearing things like lotion, makeup, contact lenses, etc to any protest you go to. Cover your airways and protect your eyes. Cover as much of your body as you can. Do research on how to be as safe as possible during these times. PLEASE BE CAREFUL. YOUR SAFETY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING RIGHT NOW.

          Now, concerning the riots that are shaking the country right now. I have mixed feelings on this subject. On one hand, I dislike the use of property damage as a means of protest, but on the other hand, I agree that the time for peace is OVER. For decades, people have been peacefully protesting against racism and mistreatment of POC, but the people in power (primarily PREJUDICED WHITE MEN) HAVE NOT LISTENED.
          The only reason the protests have turned violent in the first place, is because the POLICE REACTED VIOLENTLY TO THE PEACEFUL PROTESTS. The cops in Minneapolis showed up to a peaceful protest in riot gear and started using WATER CANNONS, followed by TEAR GAS AND RUBBER BULLETS. They are using non-lethal weapons in a lethal manner, shooting these rubber bullets into people's heads. There is plenty of photo evidence of protestors with BLEEDING HEAD WOUNDS. It is also highly suspected that undercover cops are the ones starting the riots. There are multiple eyewitnesses that can confirm that there were undercover cops pretending to be violent protestors who were throwing rocks at the police. The cops also LIED about protestors being armed and throwing rocks. So if the cops are going to react this way to a PEACEFUL PROTEST, then they're asking for riots.

          About the Black Lives Matter campaigns and movements, I fully support them. If I had the money to donate, I would. I'm very disappointed and unhappy that I don't have the means to donate. George Floyd's funeral funding would be the first thing I would donate to if I could. I grieve his death alongside his family. I wholeheartedly wish the best for them.

          Let's take George Floyd's situation, for example. In video evidence, George Floyd was calmly in the back seat of a police car while at least 1 of 4 cops were beating him while he did nothing to resist them or deserve this treatment. 1 of those 4 cops stood and watched as this took place, not doing anything to help Floyd. Later, also in video evidence, a cop, Derek M. Chauvin, knelt on George Floyd's neck, suffocating him, causing him immense pain, and later killing him (all the while bystanders pleaded and demanded that Chauvin stop kneeling on Floyd's neck). While Chauvin knelt on Floyd's neck, Floyd was handcuffed and again, was peaceful and not resisting. In the first few minutes of this situation, Floyd pleaded that he couldn't breathe, to which Chauvin AND the cop standing next to them did not acknowledge. Chauvin was recently arrested and charged with THIRD DEGREE murder. Chauvin BRUTALLY MURDERED a PEACEFUL CIVILAN, who had only ALLEGEDLY written a false check (Floyd was known as a "Gentle Giant" among his community, standing at 6'6" and always exhibiting kindness. No one who knew him would ever believe that he would try to write a false check. It is highly unlikely that he committed any crime that couldn't be let off with a warning, much less a crime deserving of serious physical restraint). Chauvin and the other cops involved in this incident should be charged with AT LEAST SECOND DEGREE MURDER.

          George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery (along with MANY other black citizens) were WRONGFULLY SLAUGHTERED by the people that were supposed to PROTECT them. This isn't even close to the first time an incident like this (a black civilian murdered by a white person in power) happened, and I highly doubt that it will be the last. The murderers responsible for the deaths of innocent POC should be arrested and charged with AT LEAST SECOND DEGREE MURDER, because that is exactly the crime they committed.
          (First-degree murder: Any intentional murder that is willful and premeditated with malice aforethought. Felony murder, a charge that may be filed against a defendant who is involved in a dangerous crime where a death results from the crime, is typically first-degree.
          Second-degree murder: Any intentional murder with malice aforethought, but is not premeditated or planned in advance.
          See  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_(United_States_law)  for these official definitions)

Black Lives Matter.
          George Floyd.
          Trayvon Martin.
          Breonna Taylor.
          Ahmaud Arbery.
          Tamir Rice.
          Oscar Grant.
          Eric Garner.
          Philando Castile.
          Samuel Dubose.
          Sandra Bland.
          Walter Scott.
          Terence Crutcher.
          These are the names of black American citizens who have been brutally and wrongfully murdered. And this is just a few of the HUNDREDS of people of colour who have been SLAUGHTERED in cold blood.
          Every time I hear about another wrongful killing I'm filled with twice as much disgust than I was before. Racism is sickening beyond description. These killings are far from justified. Murder is murder.
          Derek M. Chauvin, the man who knelt on George Floyd's neck and killed him, has been arrested and charged with murder. Despite this good news, the fight for racial justice isn't over. Black lives ALWAYS matter. We should not stop protesting against racial injustices.
          Similar events will undoubtedly happen again. But the more we stand up for those less privileged than us, the less it will happen. If you have the privilege that someone else doesn't, USE YOUR VOICE. You have the means to help.
