What is the goal of the protests?

Protests happen when the government refuses to listen. If you still do not know what the protests are about then you too have refused to listen. Some people are so willfully ignorant that it takes a crowd of angry people before they notice there is even a problem.
So a liberal State with a liberal Governor...a liberal Mayor...and a black Police Chief wasn't "listening"? Does that even make a bit of sense to you?

You know why part of the reason George Floyd is dead today? Because he woke up that morning...did some Meth and Fentynol...then decided to go get some cigarettes using counterfeit money! You know why else George Floyd is dead today? When the Police arrived and arrested him...he wouldn't get into the squad car! George Floyd is dead today because he put himself in a situation where an idiot cop didn't realize he was killing someone or didn't care! It's the same idiotic scenario of Michael Brown and to be quite blunt...I'm sick and tired of this guy being turned into "Saint George" by the media! George Floyd was a low life. You can march until the cows come home and that FACT isn't going to change!
So we should wait until the cops murder a boy scout to get angry? At some point you just have to say enough is enough. Seeing a man get murdered in cold blood on TV was the last straw.
Cops are human beings and therefore going to murder in the future. That is simply a fact. Do you have a way to prevent murders? If so, lets hear it.

Lets assume the cop intentionally wanted to kill him by putting his knee on his neck. For whatever reason, he just felt like doing it. Ok, now how do we stop people from murdering in the future? If there is no way to stop future murders, then these protests are pointless. There is literally NOTHING positive that can be gained from these protests. Its just a waste of time, money and human lives.
This shit happens because the cops get away with it everyday, and it's not just murder. Cops are uniquely positioned to lead a life of crime and many do. The penalties for official misconduct are so lax it is ridiculous when you consider the harsh penalties we impose on regular criminals.

Harsher penalties will stop people from committing crimes in the future? When has that ever worked?

The last straw? Black men get murdered every weekend in Chicago and you don't say a THING, Occupied! A low life takes drugs...tries to steal from a convenience store...refuses to get into a squad car when he's arrested...and then dies because an idiot cop kneels on his neck? We're shutting down the entire country for THAT piece of shit? Seriously? A man who participated in a home invasion and held a gun to a pregnant woman's belly demanding drugs? That's your "man"? I hate to be blunt but I don't even see George Floyd as human after something like that! He's scum of the worst kind!
Does not matter one bit. Once in police custody (handcuffs on) the police are legally responsible for your safety. What you got arrested for is irrelevant.

Cops lead a life of crime? Are you REALLY that naïve? 95% of the Police in this country are honest, hardworking public servants doing a thankless job which requires them to put their lives at risk every single day that they put on that uniform! Get your head out of your ass!

They are unless you continue to resist. Then YOU are legally responsible! What part of that concept don't you grasp? If George Floyd doesn't resist arrest...his ass in that cruiser and he's off to jail. But George is on drugs and George isn't playing ball with the Police!

More than 95%. We have a million cops. Very few commit murder.

The cops have been fired and will probably go to jail. There is no need to defend them because there is no excuse for their actions. Can't see anyone but a fascist feeling like they have to.
 
1. I understand the goal of the insurrection is to stop police mistreatment of ethnicity X.

2. I agree with the OP that such a goal is impossible.

3. I agree with the insurrection supporters, however, that such mistreatment can be minimized.

a. For example, more officers will now turn in fellow cops who go too far.
b. There will also be less mistreatment because more cops will start turning a blind eye to "minor" crimes.

4. The looting and violence have achieved two things:

a. They scared the blank out of the politicians and business community.
b. They will cause more people to vote for President Trump and law-and-order candidates in general.
 
Why not protest serial killers? Why not protest child molesters?
Those people get punished for their crimes. Stop being retarded.
There must be consequences for these riots. People need to move away. Businesses need to leave. Corporate headquarters need to relocate. To be held hostage every year is insane, unproductive and not safe.
 
The title is a very simple question that not one democrat can answer.

A cop breaks the law, kills a guy, and now democrats are "protesting". What exactly is the goal of the protests? We have TONS of crime in the US that isnt just limited to cops, so if you have a way to stop it from happening, lets hear it.

Why not protest serial killers? Why not protest child molesters? Do you think that will work? If not, then what the fuck are you people doing?! I'll tell you what youre doing... youre asking for an impossibility. There is literally nothing that can stop criminal activity. Its simply part of the human experience. To think otherwise is fucking retarded.
Blacks are slaughtering whites, so either we are in the twilight zone or the main stream is out of control

We have cameras on police now. There is no turning a blind eye anymore.

The amount of murdered people is about as minimal as it gets. Did democrats kill 9 people and burn multiple cities to have 1 less death at the hands of the police? Im not seeing the pay off here.
