You are perpetrating violence. No one owes you a conversation. I didn’t say you personally called the cops but by your own fucking admission you thought the cops had shit under control. You do know that cops KILL Black people, right? You said you disagreed with the woman who said that about peace. But you didn’t ask her to please not touch a Black woman. You admit you walked away. You are making snarky comments about “what could we have done” but not even considering how fucking simple the answer is. No one asked you to be perfect. We asked you to even TRY to do right. And stop making demands of POC to help you work out your failures. You have been disrespectful as fuck from jump. Fix yourself.
