How is celebrating black history month on a cruiser motivated by "horrible racism"?

I've been around... I don't get your meaning. Seems to me they're trying to bridge the gap

It is window dressing without fixing anything. And given hownlottle the police want to change in general, it is mocking actual diversity and black people.

So getting offended for a small step in the right direction. What else can we get offended over today?

The government spends 10x this amount of money on 10x stupider shit every single day. I get what people are saying but its still weird to see them all up in arms about the least egregious case of pointless state spending Ive ever seen. If you think the money spent on this paint job is an outrageous waste of resources then your brain would fucking explode seeing what else they spend money on.

So anything that is not a 100% legislative or reformative effort is somehow meaningless? That’s ridiculous. Was it a white person’s idea? No. Jesus Christ.
Your comment is in poor taste. Get over yourself. This isn’t an insult, it’s celebratory and intended to raise awareness and celebrate diversity.
