Following the nationwide protests over the death and the killings of Black citizens in the streets, President Trump retweeted two videos of Black men attacking a white man and a woman in separate incidents, asking: ‘Where are the protesters?’
But George Floyd was killed by an official Minneapolis police officer who pinned him to the ground by kneeling on his neck. These two cases represent random episodes of violence. Trump preferred to ignore those facts. Both men were arrested. [Yahoo News]

This guy brutally assaulted a Macy’s employee because of his race and then slandered him by claiming he said the n-word, which was a lie. This is a horrific hate crime and if the races were reversed it would be the only thing we talk about for days.
