The right wingers are all over this, but even in the local news, there is nothing suggesting this is a racial attack. Disgusting if it is, heck it is disgusting, full stop.
What sets aside killings perpetrated by the police from this and why there is so much furore over George Floyd, is that the police are meant to uphold the law and protect citizens. Not kill them. They are public servants and too many of their number are not discharging their responsibilities or don’t even care to do so.
That can’t remain unchecked and the culture that enables them needs to be eradicated.
