Relax. 2 younger, non-minority looking types, reducing the social injustice and systemic racism protests to the lowly lazy, donut eating cops? Not to mention the Freudian slip of using donuts as ‘bait’ as if they’re fishing for something to catch on their twitter account. Real ####ing poignant protest there guys, really captured the crux of the matter.
Sorry I take issue with the blatant mocking disrespecting of police officers as a whole. Systemically, I have no doubts the force has huge issues. I can only empathize with those who endure the life I only have presented to me through story or music or media, and I fully support the right to protest and entirely understand the rage and aggression that is being displayed.
I feel nothing but disdain for a group of brats who tries to use a tired cliche as some sort of comedy device in the face of officers. To what end? What was the message, the protest, the change, the point of their demonstration. I’ll bet everything I own that your average police officer is put in more dangerous, stressful and critical positions and part of their career than a majority of professions. And hanging a donut during a time of historically significant upheaval is not a impetus for change. It absolutely reeks of something en entitled college kid would do, thinking they’re witty but missing the entire ####ing point by a country mile.
But please, keep on fighting the good fight.
