Of course it swings both ways. In this case, the nutshell comes off as:

"Hey, could you be more understanding that a disproportionate amount of unarmed young black guys are getting shot by police?"
"Hey, could you understand that we don't want you to disrespect the government that is responsible for the people shooting a disproportionate amount of unarmed young black guys?"

One side needs to say "hey, let's address the issue and not the messenger."
