    I bet one of his ancestors was involved in the slave trade so that'll have to come down.

    Racism is a thing but let’s deal with the issues which actually exist and not invent ones.
    The idea that a systematically racist police are routinely shooting and killing unarmed black people just isn’t borne out by the numbers. Where does this perception come from that black people have to fear for their lives when interacting with police in the US? Obviously you can point to certain instances, I can point to plenty of plane crashes, that doesn’t mean flying is unsafe.


    More black people have died during the BLM "protests" than have been killed by police this year. Including a number of children, but as Don Lemon said BLM isn't about that.

    If you were to believe the narrative you'd think white police officers are literally hunting black people, they're not.

    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    62% of Americans say that Trump's handling of the Black Lives Matter protests has made the situation worse.

    Just 20% say Trump has made the situation better.

    Just lol at still believing the polls


    Also the whole thing has been theatre designed to harm his presidency so it's not surprising this is what the "polls" are reporting.

    He actually can't win with them, anything he'd have done would've been wrong.

    But you know who he is winning for, the American people. He's winning so much they must be getting sick of all the winning.

    While the polls were wrong in 2016, I wouldn’t just claim they are now. Take the UK for example. No polling company predicted that Cameron would win his majority in 2015, again in 2017 they predicted a May majority (although towards the end of the 2017 election, some had predicted a swing towards hung parliament).

    it just meant that over the past five years, pollsters amended their methods etc and when in 2019, they were all predicting a large majority for Tories, most didn’t believe them and were then surprised when they were right. It’ll be the same in America.

    However, if you look at some polls in certain states like Texas, they have Biden & Trump neck & neck. Now it is a lot easier to poll individual states rather than nationally and if Texas is going Blue, Trump is in trouble

    So this then

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-533...tions-answered

    The woman in this says about systemic racism:

    "Its about how society is really structured to keep people of colour from positions of power. To make it more difficult, say, for communities of colour to own property, to own homes, to advance in society.
    How is society structured that way? I mean, historically yes, but now? Obviously this historic things do have long lasting effects which persist, but how is society structured now to stop black people progressing. Later she says (in response to someone asking what they can do) writing to your MP. And say what? What laws can MP's change which will make a difference?
