The problem to me is the rich and connected get preferential treatment from the justice system regardless of ones ethnicity. A wealthy person can afford a great defense team a poor person cannot. Poverty knows no skin color as I can personally attest to from my childhood.
When I was in the military, it was drilled into our heads that there was no skin color. We were all green and that was the end of that discussion. When we were on duty, that was the law. In these new days of a woke military, I fear for their lives in an actual combat situation. Without unity and colorblindness, cohesiveness will break down and people will needlessly due.
These are just my opinions and experiences, as an old man in reflection. I do not expect younger people to think like me as they have grown up in a different world than I did. We were raised to respect other peoples opinions that we may have disagreements with, and I am that person.
