If it was a Black Lives Matter protest people would already by shackled, arrested or dead.
Talked about the other side believes only they can choose the President and people like her are supposed to be allowed to vote.
She doesn't understand by Cruz and Hawley have not resigned.
Republicans and Conservative media have played a role in this.

She should be ashamed of her depraved indifference to the murders, beatings, false arrests and all the other typical victimizations of those who aren't black. This isn't a new subject to her, and she's not some clueless fool ranting to no one in front of the TV. Nor am I. At a low point in my life I worked on internal affairs depositions for the internal affairs division of the LACSD.
AA are @13% of all Americans, whites nearly 75%, which means many thousands of tragedies-by-police that she doesn't admit even exist. And that kind of stunning dishonesty and hostility are not okay in anyone, but especially in a person in her position.

Wow. There's some stunning dishonesty and hostility at play here, but it's not coming from Joy Reid.
