Sure.
# Metoo was great until it crossed party lines. ( Never saw any real outcry from the movement when Biden was accused.Also, Bill Clinton seems to get a pass along with Woody Sllen and Roman Polanski) I agree that it brought a great of light to Hollywood types that were sexually assaulting or harassing women. But rape still happening and it will never be eradicated from humanity. Some people are just wicked.
Surprise me.
Other than making some people feel better that the police are to be used as a punching bag that the violence or destruction has solved much of anything in Kenosha right. You have a city that is under siege and has armed citizens that are under curfew. Flosman's description is of a place where the populace is almost held hostage. Yeah, I realize protest is supposed to be uncomfortable. Riots and anarchy are extremely dangerous. That goes beyond uncomfortable.
Nobody is saying that rape isn't still happening. That makes no sense. But you can make these things less likely to happen by making proactive steps. That's what we're saying here. You aren't curing wickedness, but that's by no means a reason to throw your hands up and say that you're not gonna take steps to make it less likely. Imagine saying that during 9/11. lol (Additionally, politically, this has been brought up in the news, social media, and in this forum. But it's politically motivated and I'm doing my best not to go there, here.)
But again, as you said, not the subject. I was just making the comparison clear.
#2, The goal is not to make police a punching bag; I don't think anybody fighting for this thinks that. The goal is to give them the accountability that citizens have. I think that's been said a bazillion times here, and I think you agree with that.
BTW, re your "the athletes should go out there and protest," a lot of them (along with several other wealthy Black people) are either sending funds in support or helping in other ways that they can. They have talked to activists on the ground, as well as members of the Wisconsin government, and acted accordingly. They're doing their part with the influence that they have. The same thing happened with the Taylor/Floyd killings.
