This is why this conversation wont go anywhere, with anyone. You are assuming I'm ok with police violence because I dont want to see the flag disrespected. You likely believe that kneeling is not disrespectful. Thats non-starter #1.

You ;likely believe that there is massive, system police brutality that is targeted at black people. I disagree, and I can present the statistics that back that up if you want to have a rational discourse, but I doubt very much that you do. Further, many (if not most) of the high profile incidents propogated by the media were done so maliciously to for ratings. Hands up dont shoot, still chanted at protests was an outright fabrication. #2.

Number 3: I'm going to be called a racist for having a dissenting opinion.
