I am an Iraq War veteran and I fully support the rioters!

Everyone who says they don't support the rioters needs to step outside of their comfort zone and put themselves in the shoes of the angry. <br><br>This shit has gone on for centuries. I'm sure that some of these protesters are just taking advantage of the chaos to loot, but the real reason for the protests is because Black Americans have been tortured, brutalized, and murdered for generations and nothing has been done to stop it. <br><br>I've seen videos of police beating up on white protesters. This isn't just an anti-black thing. This is nothing new. <br><br>The only reason this is getting so much attention now is because it's being recorded by more people. In the past, the news and media could portray protesters as the enemy, but now that everyone has a camera on them, more people are beginning to realize that the real enemy is the state who hires these fucking thugs. <br><br>More people are finally beginning to see through the veil of freedom that we don't really have. <br><br>I joined the military to fight for freedom, but the only thing I defended was the right for billionaire corporations to make more profits while the middle and lower classes struggle. <br><br>There is no democracy in the US and the citizens of this country are finally starting to wake up to that.
