I've already seen too many videos of whites being lynched, white men defend yourself!
I know it's tempting but don't feed into the race war

Strange deflection has taken over the thread; that protests over police brutality against black people are invalid because of interracial murder stats. Besides being a dead giveaway of a white supremacist mindset, it's not a valid line of argument.
White people do not broadly feel mistreated to the point of these historical and current socioeconomic race-based grievances. Who would they riot and loot against? Who would they protest? Doesn't make any sense. There is no question there that begs for an answer. It's an impulsive show of racial resentment and fear. It also distracts from the discussion, which must be part of the point. And of course, these things serve as good cover for racists to let out their anxieties.Its not that it invalids animosity towards police brutality, it begs the question that why aren't white people more mad about the interracial murder stats? Why aren't there protests and looting over that?
America the shithole.
Are the black people engaging in criminality not responsible for their own behaviour? The looting, burning and violence from blacks is justified and should be overlooked because some white idiots are causing problems? There are certainly white people involved, but lefties trying to shift all of the blame on the absolute stupidity taking place in the United States right now is ridiculous. Everyone involved in the violence and destruction, regardless of race, should be held accountable for their actions. Making excuses and shifting the blame for violent black people is not helping anybody. The biggest problem in America regarding race-relations is the soft bigotry of low expectations. The Left in particular believe that blacks are not capable of being better. This is just another example. Blacks cannot be held accountable for their involvement in the riots and looting because, apparently, some white people started it. Bigotry of low expectations.
*Black People Built America!

Pick one and stick to it.
Lol... These “protestors” are an embarrassment and have killed any support the original movement may have had.
They’re no better than looters ransacking people’s homes and businesses after a major hurricane or other natural disaster.

No but being made aware that a certain racial group causes you harm more than others may create a fear and disdain of that group, wouldn't it?White people do not broadly feel mistreated to the point of these historical and current socioeconomic race-based grievances.

Not America, looks like Brazil. If so, it’s unrelated to the George Floyd protests and that poster is stirring up shit for no reason.America the shithole.
LA, Minneapolis, and the other places where these riots are happening certainly are; you are right. America is a very big place though. As long as you live in a red state somewhere towards the center of the country, and stay away from the blue pockets out there, America is awesome.America is a shithole.

I think she is trying to combat the narrative that this is all being done by black people. All groups have contributed in this. Black people, white people, brown people, police officers, politicians, antifa, blm, thugs & criminals, and the media have all played their part in this.
Its really important that we be mature and thoughtful in how we sort all this out as a nation. If we aren't careful everyone is going to pick sides and groups while all just hate and blame each other. Theres plenty of blame and grievance to go around right now.
American whites have to understand that their time as a cultural and economical hegomony is coming to an end. It starts with the younger generation, that is out on the streets today, where whites are already, or soon will be, the minority. The lines are being drawn, share your wealth and stand down your tools of oppression, or we burn down your cities.
