I seriously doubt that.
That demonstrates your lack of empathy.
I seriously doubt that.
Maybe Robert' could provide 3 examples of empathy...................?
My 23 year old grandson, my daughters boy, confessed to us all today he is a heterosexual cisgender male.
What can be done for him?
OK, these are his words.
"As someone who is privileged in most dimensions of his life (white, heterosexual, cis-gender, middle-class) I cannot speak for black people. I cannot ever truly understand the extent to which systematic (and explicit) racism affect them."

Just more proof you have no idea what the word means :roll:
What is the problem Robert? I am confused on what you're complaining about.
Here's my suggestion: This month, Warner Brothers is allowing everybody to stream the 2019 film JUST MERCY. You can watch it on Youtube or googleplay for free. Watch the film. I also recommend everybody here watch it too.
Thank you.
More proof you lack empathy.
We lack empathy because we called you on your claim which was very likely a lie of knowing what empathy was?
That's rich.
I presume you mean that Trump displays.
1. Empathy for the victims of violence.
2. Empathy for the nations law enforcement
3. Empathy for victims such as Floyd who was cruelly killed by cops.
Oh please you sound like my wife

A dna test, or maybe a trip to the Maury povich show is not out of order
Where were those displays? Gassing people in the street, using active-duty troops on protesters and calling for them to be beaten up isn't empathy.
Is Povich a Democrat?
The gassing is a myth. The nations Guard is not active duty. Trump has bent over backwards supporting blacks yet far too many of them do not appreciate what he does for them daily.

The Rev. Gini Gerbasi, the rector at a different St. John's Church in Washington, D.C., described a peaceful afternoon in a viral Facebook post.
"They started using tear gas and folks were running at us for eyewashes or water or wet paper towels. At this point, Julia, one of our seminarians for next year (who is a trauma nurse) and I looked at each other in disbelief," she wrote.
"I was coughing, her eyes were watering, and we were trying to help people as the police – in full riot gear – drove people toward us," she wrote.
A Reuters video showing a portion of the standoff shows none of the provocation described by Park Police until after police moved forward.
You are a lpousy liar and very poor at trying to deflect.
Floyd protests: Was tear gas used to clear park for Trump's walk?
Tear gas and CS were used in DC to clear the way for Trump's hypocritical bible stunt at the church.
Saying that the Klan and Neo-Nazis are good people doesn't endear Trump to minorities.
No idea. But, you would his target audience.
Our own AG debunked the gassing claims made by the media. So I did not lie.
AG Barr defends clearing protest near White House, disputes claims demonstration was peaceful
D.C. police Chief Newsham, in his discussion of Monday’s incident during a Tuesday news conference, also noted that “federal law enforcement officers” gave warnings to disperse.
The next question is, how did the police “redirect” the crowd? In its release, Arlington County noted its officers did not “unholster their batons, or fire rubber bullets or tear gas at the protesters.” (Note: Later Tuesday, Arlington amended its release to remove the reference to “batons.” Arlington County confirmed to WTOP that its officers did unholster batons.)
But, why were reports circulating that tear gas was used?
Smoke bombs are not tear gas.
“No tear gas was used by USPP officers or other assisting law enforcement partners to close the area at Lafayette Park,” Monahan said via a release from the National Park Service.
As Arlington County’s release noted, its officers were attempting to move the crowd with “their presence” and not any irritants.
Why, then, did multiple reporters describe the irritant in the area a tear gas, and why was it deployed?
Deeper reporting reveals that protesters did begin to get arrested, throwing water bottles, rocks and other projectiles at the oncoming police.
“As many of the protesters became more combative, continued to throw projectiles, and attempted to grab officers’ weapons, officers then employed the use of smoke canisters and pepper balls.” Monahan’s statement also described “caches of glass bottles, baseball bats and metal poles hidden along the street.”
