What is the realistic outcome here? What happens next time a black man is shot, justifiable or not by police? It appears that these boycotts and the protests throughout the US have created as more division then anything I can remeber in my lifetime.

Thank you, that's how I look at it too. While I am all against racism, no matter the form or who the victim is, I don't think some of the zealotry we are seeing now is doing any good. Aklim Aliu founded Alliance for diversity, but is absolutely ok with saying stuff like "If you are not with us, you are against us!". That's right, lot of diversity with that mindest. Thats how totalitarian regime starts. Americans don't know it yet, because they have never expereinced communism as we eastern europeans did. The same thing with LeBron James, the man talks about slavery 400 hunderd years ago while making millions of dollars from children workers and slavery in present days. And I see people saying that it doesnt matter because now the main thing is the BLM. And it's more improtant because it's USA. In Czech Republic where I live there is no racism towards black community, because we have close to none here, but we have other minorities that are facing oppression and living at the edge of society. Can they relate to racism? Absolutely. Can they relate to BLM? Well thery are told they cannot because they are not black and their ancestors were not enslaved. How do you think the rest of the world is taking this in? Because trust me, the whole world is watching.
