    Kelley hits the heart of this moment. Not just justice for Floyd's case but need for a real system change

      No, that’s why they didn’t charge him with first degree murder and did charge him with manslaughter. The jury will compromise and convict of manslaughter. It’s a clear case of first degree murder.

    Serious questions, not trying to just piss people off... Would reparations go to a black person whose parents came to America 10 years ago? 50 years ago? 100 years? Would there be an income threshold or would even wealthy blacks get reparations? Would reparations go to someone who is 1/4 black? 1/16? 1/64? If blacks get reparations, what about Indians, who lost the entire continent? Reservations are just giving them a sliver of what was already theirs.

      Reparations is for the Afro Americans aka ADOS, FBA or the descendants of chattel slavery in the U.S. For the very small Caribbean group that was in the U.S. during Jim Crow yes they should received some compensation. The percentages of our “Blackness” is irrelevant. That wasn’t use for the Japanese or Jews.

      @@taylordupree6065 Thanks for the reply. So, more questions -- and, again, I'm not being rhetorical or just trying to throw bombs, I'm trying to explore how complex this topic is beyond the initial general idea of "reparations" itself. Who should pay reparations? Some of these are the inverse of questions I raised earlier. Should someone who moved to the US 1 year ago have to pay reparations? 10 years ago? 20 years ago? What if the person who came to the US was persecuted in his or her own country before coming here, should this person be taxed to pay for the ancestral persecution of others to escape one's own direct persecution? If not, what is the threshold of persecution that entitles exemption? Before I asked if recent black immigrants should receive reparations, but the opposite question can be asked -- should wealthy black immigrants pay reparations? Reparations to Japanese -- I'm figuring you're referring here to Reagan's Civil Liberties Act of 1988 that paid $20K to former Japanese internees -- isn't entirely helpful here because those damages were paid to specific individuals (former internees who were still living when the Act was signed), not to a class of individuals (Japanese people in general).

    1:50 Being progressive is a positive step forward for our society. But being a progressive that follows blind sweeping ideas instead of critical thought is not positive
    Society is one that is civilized. If an individual is wanting to act at a level below civilized such as killing another then yes they do belong in a cage or for that matter isolated from society. Why? Because it's likely that uncivilized person will kill again.
    Then he follow up his claim by stating popular progressive ideals even tho they have nothing to do with how society should handles a murder. He decides to include his personal agenda into the progressive one. This is why people get so irritated by centrist that play left. No leftist will tell you because cops get away with crimes that no one should be isolated from society if they hurt others. Wtf.
    Thus it is exciting to see justice for a murderer, especially from a group that often gets off from it free. It is progress of justice
