The process of becoming an officer and maintaining that position is too easy. I want to see that reformed. I don’t really have an opinion on their funding

Did I miss the discussion about this incident?

Black Lives Matter hero who carried injured 'far right' protester named





I already hear fake internet militants rushing onto this one but the power of what he pulled off in one act is pretty incredible:

1. Reinforced Black folk as the heroes with true souls and made racist White folk look inferior

2. Strengthened the narrative that the Black protesters were trying to be peaceful and the racist Whites were the violent ones

3. Defused a situation that could have been real bad press for Black folk in Britain

4. Kept some young men from catching charges that could have destroyed their lives
