Minneapolis Police Department, who employed the four officers responsible for George Floyd's death. Uhmm...if you had read the article I provided in the link, what MPD meant would've become self-evident

You continually fixate on the fact that George Floyd wasn't a model citizen (far from it), and therefore doesn't deserve to be the 'poster child' of the BLM, nor deserved to buried in a manner chosen by his family. It could have just as easily been Breonna Taylor, or Ahmaud Arbery, or any of thousands of black individuals who have been killed by police brutality and white supremacists. To hide behind 'all lives matter' is simply a smokescreen to hide your lack of understanding of what BLM really means. Of course all lives matter, but seemingly some matter less to you. And of course it's impossible to truly understand what it's like to be a black person if your skin color is white.

And it's going to be a very long struggle to change that system, a struggle that will probably continue longer than my remaining time, unfortunately.....
