  1. 1) If you agree with Fidel Castro, the doors in Cuba are open. 
    2) If you feel oppressed in the USA, the doors are open…feel free to leave whenever you like. 
    3) No governmental or social economical system is perfect…with that being said..please compare the United States with these other systems. If you feel you will be better off under the governing authorities of these systems….feel free…
    4) If you feel so strongly about protesting, kneeling, rioting etc…take it a step further. Refuse to collect this blood money the USA has given and is continuing to give you. $800 shoes, $300 jeans, $190 t shirt….Capitalism at its finest. You admire Che, put your $60k watch up and go fight in the jungles of Bolivia just like he did. You admire Ghandi and his ideologies, why not hunger strike. Or serve decades in prison like Mandela. Dont talk about it, be about it. 
    5) The ignorance is rampant amongst put young brothera and sisters. There are 2 sides to every story. 

    • if its a free country so to speak. You can’t exercise your first amendment. Why can’t people protest ? If not then you are a hypocrite.  We have fake patriotism. All of us are products of propaganda and straight up.
