To: The PEOPLES view

Thanks for your time and answers. Though I believe black is not the only color that has received in some and very cases "Police Brutality".

I believe their is Brown, White and many more that I definitely don't have the time to mention because the list is to long.
But, I believe everyone in life has had a bad experience with Police, Firemans, Doctors, Attorneys, Journalist, News Reporters and etc..

I don't think it's fare to say that all "BROWN" people are hispanic. I don't think it's fare to say that all Black people are bad or a threat. I don't think it's fare to say that all "White" people are K.K.K.

BUT, I can sincerely say that the time that we spend seeing the negative or criticizing other if we were to SEE THE POSITIVE and the GREAT PERSONS AND THINGS that surround us?

I know we as the PEOPLE of this beautiful NATION and or COUNTRY we can make the change without the need of the POLITICIAN.

DONT MISUNDERSTAND my opinion but always with respect, formal, and discipline.

Once again thank you for your service and time.


HOOAH!

The biggest problem is not racism, bigotry, and prejudice. It's ignorance. Especially because of stereotypes!

Well said. Everyone has to do their part to make the world a better place. Stereotypes and generalizations exist for a reason. That doesn't meant they're all okay to emulate, support, and follow.

While I agree with the comments left here, lately it has been blacks who seem to be "the target". I believe that there are brown, white, yellow, green blue, who have had their share of problems with police brutality as well but haven't really seen it on the news. I just pray that no matter what the color is that it stops and people start thinking before they act.

That comment is racist in itself, you stereotype blacks as primarily the only victims of police brutality. Whites and Hispanics are victim too, those victimized just don't use it as a deterrent from accepting guilt of one's own fault as to why the police were involved in the first place.

There are many issues with in our country. My views are that there are people whom only want what they can profit from. Another is the muted out sheep that only want peace. Now what I see is that the group in the middle ( all races ) that act upon strictly what their social up bringing tell them to believe in. If we could only get the media to stop exploiting the negative in the world and promote that good i am sure there would be a slow but suddle change. But sadly they do not get the views they are looking for. In light of that, the government mostly with the backing to the group whom fight for the wrong ideal's because if the votes they can get. If we could get back to the roots of our Constitution I'm sure a lot would be changed for the better In stead of destroying what it was ment to do. But that's just me. I only love the country and would die to protect it. Even if its going down a very dark road which it might not return....

Seriously, they don't say "hooah" anymore? Just curious related to the "cute" comment above. I find it peculiar that the only thing you could add about a serious discussion was the fact that the PFC still uses "hooah".

We can all use some positivity. There are so many good things going on in the world. Sadly we don't see much of it.

Everyone is so busy being racist or offended by racism that we forget each race has actual genetic differences that do benefit them. However this is no reason to differentiate between races. In fact the only areas where race could matter are in medical cases, science and anthropology.
