have been infiltrated by these white supremacist, fascist bastards. That's why they're so quick to pull the trigger on people of color, or put a knee on a neck.

Every PD in this country needs to be investigated, and every fascist, white supremacist son of a bitch fired, or if there's evidence of wrong doing, jailed.

These LEOs are supposed to be protecting every citizen, not just white people.
