My heart hurts because at the end of this, the people from out of state tearing down the cities don't have to deal with the repercussions of what they are doing to our communities. They don't have to rebuild the community they destroyed.
They get to sit back and watch as people in our communities, most importantly the people who have been peaceful since day one, get punished. They get to sit back and watch the chaos they created be blamed on the community who came together to support George Floyd by protesting. Hell as I watch live streams where you can clearly see the peacefulness, people are blaming them.
They don't see those who have been protecting their businesses. They don't see those who have risked their lives to maintain or put out fires because fire departments can't respond.
The community, people and family deserve justice for George Floyd. They deserve justice for every unarmed person killed that never got it. They don't deserve to be blamed for the havock others caused just because they demanded justice for yet another black individual who was wrongfully killed and the media wants to twist it.
