The videos of the incident drew comparisons to the George Floyd killing. Dvontaye Mitchell’s mother said she believed her son was suffering from poor mental health.
how exactly is it racist, to be concerned with the fact that a murder occurred.
Is that actually what you think the disagreement is about? Be honest now, is this really what you think you’re being criticized for? Being concerned about murder?
You dismissed the relevance that a white security guard killed an unarmed black suspect, in an era where armed white men regularly killed unarmed black men with impunity.
I don’t find murder a political issue. Why do you think murder is political?
This is a weird response. I never said anything was “political”, I said that your rigid insistence on colorblindness in the case of a white armed security guard restraining and killing an unarmed black man is inherently racist because you seek to invalidate any claim of racial bias despite plenty of evidence that these situations are heavily influenced by racial bias.
You’re asking people to look the other way at an event that is being compared to the murder of George Floyd.
If anything, you seem conspicuously unconcerned about the nature of this murder.
If you think that Black lives are inherently “political”, I am happy to reiterate my assessment that you are a racist person.
I know I shouldn’t engage.

You’re so bad at this. Just say it with your full chest, my dude. We all know it already, and I’m sure the people in your real life know it.
Racists are always the biggest fucking pussies about honestly expressing their own world view and ideology.
Why do you think racial injustice is about politics not basic human rights and decency?
