Of course above all, I want forgiveness in the world. I do not lie when I say my personal hero for now and forever is Mr Rogers. But you have to understand how this culture has been crafted. The Bible was always taught to Slaves to endure. That you may suffer in this life, you will be free in the next. The Church asks you to forgive, forgive, and forgive so that you may seek your reward in the hereafter. The first slave ship hit America in 1619.

Literally 400 years later, and that tradition is still going strong. Black Christians need to forgive, or are at least expected to if they want to be real Christians. White Christians, vengeance is yours. Use it to justify your hate, your bigotry, and your further attacks on anyone.
The Fort Worth officer who killed a woman in her own home has resigned, and the mayor calls the shooting unjustified [https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/14/us/fort-worth-police-shooting-atatiana-jefferson/index.html]

Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price said the killing of Jefferson was unjustified.

"I'm so sorry. On behalf of the entire city of Fort Worth, I'm sorry," Price told reporters Monday. "To Atatiana's family, it's unacceptable. There is nothing that can justify what happened on Saturday morning. Nothing."
Always sorrow. Never abject outrage. Anyway, The Our Familiar Dance Partner has signaled they are ready for this well-worn tango. Let's see if anyone takes them up.

And the training you go to learn to drive is completely irrelevant. There's the same risk if you're a car passenger too and you don't go through training to be a passenger but people are not any more fearful being passengers than being drivers cause they're less trained.
Ahh, ok. Of course, the dangers of driving are also the subject of billions in investment into technology and awareness campaigns to mitigate the risk; would you suggest the same approach?
Sure, more investment in bettering people's lives is always good. I'm a socialist so I support higher taxes for any research towards the improvement of quality of life.

Just gotta be receptive to the results whichever way they may come out. You know, kinda like how we have seatbelts which are a pain but end up saving lives.

(I actually think a belt for this purpose was invented back ages ago...it was called a chastity belt XD.)
