Believe I Have The Answer!
No one should be racist regardless of the color of their skin. People hear the word racist, and most of the world thinks whites are biased toward blacks. That's not so; the ugly road of racism is a two-way road. I've seen it; I've been a victim of it as well.

I agree with much of what you wrote. Racism does go both ways, if you just dislike people based on their skin color, then it's racist period. I believe even the "History" we all learned fueled the racism narrative. Divide and conquer has always been a strategy that works quite well for the Elites. Also police brutality is a real thing and it happens to people of all Races and both genders. I do not believe in defunding the police but I do believe they need reform. In addition the good police should police the bad ones when they get out of line. Or they should be charged as an accomplice.

I agree with you Robin, 100%. The things I've seen on TV is just not even of the human world. I think everyone needs to stand up/ The good officer and all of us. I get so broken, sometimes looking at the world. I know God watches over us, though, and I think there are many good people out there.
I also think it's time us good ones stand up and say no more. Thank you for your comment :) Have a great weekend and be safe.
I appreciate you Susan for publishing this post today. However there are evil people in this world, these days it seems like some police officers are evil. Some aren't doing their job to serve and protect, instead they're hurting people for no good reason and this is evil. I feel the way to conquer evil is a simple recipe. I want to share a scripture found in Romans "Do not let yourself be conquered by evil, but keep conquering evil with good." ~Romans 12:21

I agree Terri. There are evil people in this World, and some police officers are evil. Some of them even take the job to be on a power trip, I wonder how they are even hired. Unfortunately it's the Public and the Decent officers who pay the price for them. That's also a good Scripture to reference.

Terri, I agree with you 100%. There are some very evil Police officers in this world today. However, this can also pertain to preachers, boy scout leaders, priests, actors, politicians, etc. I feel like too many these days are judging by colors, be it skin or the color someone wears, and that's just wrong. I have seen things done by some (so-called offers) that have physically sickened me. Then again, I have seen innocent officers shot and killed in situations that should not have been violent.
I know we hold offers to higher standards, but we also have to realize they are just human. They don't want to die. The problem is they are not sure when they approach someone if they are friend or foe. Sadly many times before, they can figure that out the officer is dead. I am in no way saying the stuff I've seen on TV was in any way righteous.
My mom taught me I was not better than anyone but was just as good as anyone. She taught me not to judge a book by its cover. I think a lot of our problems are because some people didn't learn those lessons. I've been on the other side of the racial bias, so I know that racism doesn't just go one way. It will take all sides to rethink their thinking.
Thank you for your input and all that you do for us.

It's so sad to see the things happening in the world. I believe in the power of prayer and I know that God will answer in his time. It's up to us to be strong and endure through it all. Yes we're all humans and imperfect, so we need God's guidance and direction for living a righteous and godly life everyday. Yes God gives us free will to do the right thing and make the right decisions each day. In this world that can be hard to do, this is why we should pray daily to God for answers for living a righteous life.
