When looking for someone to blame for your problems, we should look in the mirror first. We get the government we elect. If we want different results, we have to behave differently. If we want a different sort of police department and we keep voting for the same types of people that created it, it's on us. But as humans, we usually don't want to blame ourselves, it's always someone else's fault.
Oh I hold myself responsible for not stepping up years ago when I saw some of this beginning but like so many of us with white privilege I and the spouse were working our butt's off and raising a family. Actually 2 familys as we got my kids from the 1st mistake I made and we finished raising those 3 as well. No time to do what we should have done. At least we did not take that time so yes, who I see in the mirror is in part responsible.
Didn't see that coming did you.....
