I understand your point and mostly agree with you. But I will never ever ever say both sides are the same

all right cracking down on that "excited delirium" horseshit is eliminating a very real and very deadly police overstep. I'm into it.

Dude right?? Our state is legislating against police brutality. And doing it with tools, and creating a safer space, rather than trying to get the good apples to snitch and risk their lives and careers.

The ebony alert sounds like white people grandstanding bullshit at first but there's a good point.. if all day you see that and rarely see amber alert.. you'll realize why black people are begging to be seen and the whole point of BLM. Plus it's first hand experience, not pushed on people, so they can draw the conclusions themselves without getting defensive
