As you can see, only two officers were White (both dark-Haired Nordics), while one was an East Asian (Sinid), while the other officer was a Mulatto (Alpine & Sudanid).

So, all of this black lives matter nonsense is ridiculous, as one of the officers was half or at least a quarter black himself, sure Floyd was at least 80% Black or even more than that, as most Black Americans are 80%+ SSA, the point of this whole stupid protests & riots, & is that race has nothing to do with this at all, yes, It was sad what happened to George Floyd, & I believe that this officers must serve their time for their horrible crime, but to bring race into this, simply because Floyd didn't look like these four officers is nonsense, why we Americans still so obsessed with race, if race is "Social construct" like many progressives say, than why do the same progressives make a big deal about this whole topic, I been studying humanity for 8 years now, & what as an anthropologist, I can say that this whole race card thing is nonsense, yes, thank god, that George Floyd is now getting justice, & but how about this, let's move on from this whole chaos, we have an election coming up, whether you vote for Trump or Biden, let's be sure to think positive, & make this country truly great.

Race is a social construct but that doesn’t mean it’s not real. It has very real effects on people’s lives.

I don’t know why people are so invested in the myth that races are biological entities, and get so offended by the truth of it being a social construct.

Lots of things are social constructs. Money is a social construct. But it’s so real you can touch it, smell it, and can’t live without it. If people lost faith in the social construct that is money, those paper bills in your wallet would be useless.

This is more about police brutality, it just so happens to be that many of these police officers murdering people are white, that doesn't take away the fact that even if there was an Asian or a biracial man murdering another black man, they are still part of the abusive force that policemen in general do to civilians.

We also have to remember that white officers tend to target and treat people of color as a complete threat even if they carry no weapon, meanwhile white people can carry their AK47 around the street and they will not be a threat to society, so there are double standards on how whites and non-whites are treated. Can you imagine a Muslim man carrying an AK47 in the streets? He would be shot dead without any question, they will see him as a BIG threat.

Watch this video and you will see what I am talking about


What I dont agree is with the looting, so many small businesses were destroyed and burned down, it was hard to see people crying when they would walk to their business the next day and all they saw were broken glass and a burned up building. We need to do better, if they wanted to burned down buildings, they should have all gone down to corporate businesses, police department, IRS, White House, etc why hurt the people who busted their asses off to make their dreams come true? This only shows how stupid some of our youth really is, they made the George protest an excuse to rob from their favorite stores and steal because their needs were more important than the life of George and the message most of us wanted to send to the US government.
