By and large, the Black community is making a big mistake martyring a career criminal. Yes, criminals have a right to be treated humanely when arrested, but they are not to be admired. That the Black community chooses to do so reflects badly on their moral maturity. And BLM [actually Burn, Loot, and Murder] will be rejected by Americans when they come to their senses and begin to examine the large body of facts in this case. And this is why the Republican Party has just sat back and allowed this narrative to drown out the voices of reason. Because long term, Americans reject no law and disorder as unacceptable.
