Your post has added the healthy flesh needed to build off the bones of my thoughts. I definitely concur wholeheartedly with your expanded explanation.

The reason I returned to the site tonight... Last night I went and met up with one of my aforementioned NYPD friends last night at a local watering hole. Wings and a few adult beverages were consumed. He reluctantly agreed (Law enforcement doesn't like seeing fault with other cops) with the majority of what I said here as we noted the difference between the individual I distanced myself from and himself and our 'hero cop' friend. Both he and the 'hero cop' wound up going to high school out of the area and met various people from various backgrounds during their HS years. My friend also noted that his parents had also met and moved out to Long Island from Brooklyn and they raised him in a manner where everyone is valuable and condemned looking at people in terms of race, color, or background. His father was also NYPD. So he wanted to point out that parental upbringing had a lot to do with it since no one is 'born' a racist. I have questions that I wanted to ask of you.

Glad to respond.

This Colorado Springs father denounces critical race theory and says that "racism in America would be dead today if not for certain people and institutions keeping it on life support"—including public education.
Following his testimony, the school board voted 3-2 to ban CRT.
