The highlight of my day each day,

is reading that racist comments and actions cause people to lose their jobs. It seems to be happening in lots of states which is also encouraging.

Are these people truly that stupid?

Rhetorical question I guess. They really are.

On the police side of things, I'd like to see more immediate responses. Like with the cop in San Jose who fired rubber bullets directly at the department's diversity trainer. Or the cops in Warren, MI who arrested an Amazon driver. Here's what I mean by immediate: Suspended without pay. Investigation to be completed within one week. Termination. Charges.
