If I were black, would I feel differently about the police? Probably so.

So am I prejudiced, or is my privilege showing? Maybe.

What I feel may not be the same as what others feel. What's just? What's right? Better policing and more respect for everyone. Yes. And less hate for police, and more respect for their work to keep our communities safe. Yes.

Both.

I believe I see the problems with policing.

I'm not sure you see the problems with de-policing.

What do you think?
I'm likely more "radical" in terms of police than BLM, so we're coming from different places.

That said, Bham1982 is correct. BLM only stands for black people not getting executed by police. That shouldn't be very controversial at all.
