Letter: All lives of all races matter
All lives of all races matter, so the signs should be changed. I feel that most killings are the result of the choices one makes before being pulled over. Some have criminal backgrounds and attitudes, and choose not to comply with police officers’ instructions.
The media and others should not post pictures or news until they have most of the facts. Half a video does not tell the whole story. I don’t think cops wake up every day saying, “how many people can we kill today?”
There are always going to be those who think they’re above the law. Why don’t we praise the positives of mankind, instead of lawbreakers? And if one is speaking the truth, it’s not being racist. Be a problem solver, not part of the problem.
