The US is starting to get some violent protests all across the nation, and I've heard other countries are in protest as well (though idk how violent those are).
Please make sure you keep up on the news of areas around you and don't subject yourself to anything dangerous. Your life matters just as much as anyone else's. -
This is probably a stupid question. But-
Why are countries protesting? Sorry, I don’t keep up with the news. -

That’s horrible! -
yeah it really is !
-
Yeah. His death escalated into riots and protests across the nation. I believe it's a Black Lives Matter movement, if I'm not mistaken.
As for other countries, I know Hong Kong has been fighting for their independence from China for a long time. And their fight is still going.
The Philippines has been having major issues with their president (?) and their police force. -
Adding to my thought: I think the protests in the US are also a call for reforming the police force
-
How violent are these protests?
-
oh hi dark
-
Differs on the state and location. I know a few people got shot, some cops got shot. I don't think we're hitting high death tolls yet, but a lot of buildings are being burned down or destroyed and the police have been told they can use full force. I've seen many graphic videos.
-
People are weird.
Hopefully they all calm down soon. -
I'm sure they'd calm down faster if the cops stopped murdering black people, but that's just a thought.
-
yeah, but that's no excuse to riot. they're just hurting innocent people.
