There never was any unity.

Ignoring racism doesn't make it go away. You just get "racism without racists".
Perhaps you prefer divisiveness because you feel some sort of superiority over "Caucasians".

We can "perhaps" all day; what good is it?

The truth is we are all brothers and sisters and our Father in Heaven is our Creator.

The best model for how to combat iniquity was the life of Jesus The Christ. Unfortunately, many who proclaim His Name do the opposite. Obviously, we all fall short, but those of us who believe, desire to continue striving to walk as He did.

Lively debate and disagreements are fine as long as we understand that we must all treat each other as we would wish to be treated.

The OT relates to the comments of a man who has first-hand knowledge on these matters. I found his sentiments to be truthful and honorable without being beholden to politicians, "black leaders", government officials or the hype of the media. In my opinion, he comes off as someone who really cares for and believes in the inherent God-given rights of the people and that he swore and oath to protect their lives and their property from criminals, thugs and thieves, regardless of race.

Sorry if that offends you.
