Amanda,

I believe you when you say that you want men and women to be equal. But they aren’t equal. Equality would be great, but a level playing field comes first. We don’t have that. Not with gender, and especially not with race.

So when you say that “a cop killed a man”, you are missing the material significance of that statement. Saying a white cop killed a black man is important when you have an epic number of unarmed black men being killed by white cops in America. I won’t regurgitate what others have said here, but please take a step back and look at your country, then look at the context of your statements and please try to see what others are patiently telling you here. I am not trying to be mean when I say to you that you really do have it wrong on this. I truly believe that if you consider with an open mind what I and others have said to you, and provided you are willing to be wrong, it will begin to make sense. Please, don’t let pride blind you to that.
