So I was listening to ESPN radio the other day and they were playing clips, of sportscasters and players alike, about the growing social unrest in this country.
In regards to this recent Minneapolis killing, one comment about it really stood out to me. The dude said that it wasn't a "Bad Apple" problem but that it was a "White" problem.
This got me thinking: What, exactly, is this guy referring to, because that's a pretty loaded comment.
We can deduce that he thought that there were a lot more racist murderers in law enforcement than just the one police officer, but it made me wonder how many more he thought there were. Was it a few hundred? Was it a few thousand? Could it be that he was trying to say that racism (white racism, specifically) is baked into the entire fucking system? Or was the guy really trying to say that ALL white people (especially white conservative males) are racists?
I'm curious to know everyone's thoughts.
