American racism at its grimiest and ugliest. And it has only gotten worse with the Gestapo forces on the streets now after the FG. Then of course the forces of the state are carrying out the white protocols in dealing with African-Americans. Being a vet I am so disgusted with this country's policies in dealing with POC. 4 white men and a brownish woman take down 1 black woman. One sounds Hispanic or Cuban. This was in Florida. So I'm not surprised. Cubans voted for trump in this state in large numbers.

America had been very adept at hiding the racism inherent in the American white culture for generations from the world. I am glad for trump FOR ONE REASON only. He allowed racism to again be permissible for the LEGIONS of racist cops and their helpers. He told the average citizen they did not have to be civil nor civilized about the POC they hated. As a disabled vet, the hate in this country makes me want to vomit. I did not serve for this. And yes a civil war is brewing hotter since TFG. I am very uncomfortable living in this racist country. At one time I thought we had turned a corner then the ability of trump to get into the White House ended that naivete. I am awake again like I was in the south in the 50s and 60s.

"She needs to be corrected". Like she's his young daughter or something.

Then he apparently lied about it.

I'm very glad and surprised he got some jail time.
