It helps bring about conversation around what we can do better as a society. If we are tone def to the issues of a race, how are we going to solve them? How are we going to educate ourselves, our kids, and others about this issue? They are rioting and looting because this issue is still happening. What makes you more upset, the rioting or the police brutality? Because you don't have rioting and looting if you don't have police brutality. Fix the root of the problem.

There is a right to protest and I totally support that, but don't tell me my uncle died to support rioting, violence, and destroying businesses and churches, because he did not.  You spit on his name saying things like that.  Chauvin showed excessive force and should be found guilty in a court of law and sent to prison.  That conviction and prison sentence will be justice for George Floyd, not the destroying of an unrelated business or setting fire to a church, or attacking other police officers.
