Over the past days, we have seen the protests over George Floyd's death spread all across the United States from Minneapolis to Dallas to New York to Philadelphia to Atlanta and beyond.

I have tried to compile a series of videos and tweets that depict the actual situation on the ground over the past 24 hours.

Children actually don't mind and see no difference when it comes to the color of other children like themselves. And the same applies to animals also, even if they're so-called "arch enemies" i.e. dog and cat. But if you raise them together, in a loving and positive environment, such preconceived notions of animosity can be totally shattered instead.

The main problem lies with indoctrination and peer pressure in society. It always starts within a family, then it continues through the educational system and with peer pressure while growing up, and ultimately into adulthood where the biases and socio-economic divide truly becomes a widespread problem altogether.

This was probably a catalyst or a "wake up" moment for Americans that racism does indeed exist in America and is prevalent and clearly evident amongst law enforcement. There are many many videos on Youtube showing racial injustice at the hands of law enforcement.

It seems to be a cultural thing going back a few hundred years to the times of slavery. Will be impossible to 'solve' this by charging a few cops and passing a few laws. It will take a generation or so to truly bridge the divide.

Everyone's life matters not just black. Vandalism or destruction of property is not a form of protest. Fight against weapon is not allowed for general public. Will you fight against 10 times of armY? You can do it if you want to lose your life. You did a pretty good jobs by submitting links of social media.

I agree with you. All people can fight against them even if people don't have any weapon because they do the right thing. Sooner or later, the government will realize that they make a mistake, and they will apologize to people, and they will not create another mistake.

We hope that everything can be fine, and there is no other victim of vandalism or destruction in the future, especially we still fight against Covid-19. We need to unite together because we have the same enemy right now.

This is the problem because election in US is coming near and i believe that there are political agenda in this cases,some politicians are pushing people to make such actions specially other races because of this sad event.

Those policemen that involves in the killing is whom to be punished and not the whole america.

Look this is looting and not protest.

Maybe people who loot just take advantage of the opportunities that exist, because covid 19 has an impact on the economy of all societies.
but even what their reason is,still Looting is not part of that said protest,why need to break those stores when it has nothing to do with their grieve ?
why instead that the stores and shop they should visit those Police stations?surely they are afraid and what they really tend to do is take advantage of the situation and loot is what they wanted.

the essence of the George Floyd killing is now dying because of this shits.

I watched the most detailed video of George floyd death, I must say that it was scary.
That is why American people are so angry.
It's inhumane.

There's the recent news that George's brother has spoken and wants to stop the riots.

racism has been going on for a long time in the United States, and the Floyd incident has caused outrage in the community. I hope they will settle down soon!
I wish all the best for all the people there.

It will be just a matter of time and things will go neutral again.

This was the original problem#1, which caused a domino effect that led to problem#2. Angry

This is problem#2 right now that's happening, which led and escalated to problem#3.  Sad Huh


Look this is looting and not protest.

This is sadly problem#3 that's still currently ongoing.   Cry

I saw a video about George Floyd, that police actions were cruel and racist, even the people around had warned the police to release George Floyd because he couldn't breathe.
And that's the reason why there's now chaos in Minneapolis.

Tensions are getting higher.

There's a thread made for it.
