If we did have anarchy against any officials and government, we wouldn't be able to have our elected government members run the country, properly: there could be loss of possible deaths and creating multiple injuries. Not to mention the mental effects that may be brought on to individuals.
With what has happened with the death of George Floyd (Click here for details of store), all I can say is this:
I've always learnt that you cannot win by noisy and violent demonstrations that may make innocent people lose lives. My life experiences proves it.

You know I believe when people take to the streets and want to protest with what to them is wrong when it involves more human injury, accidents and eventually deaths, that when our reactions are wrong. In my case where I lived in Mount Druitt, over 10 years ago, we lost 3 major bus services. I was asked to be a community spokesperson in advocating in getting these vital services back to the heart of the community. Some local members of the community advised that the then NSW Government will not return bus services in Mount Druitt. We had an organised community meeting in the town square, I never wanted any demonstration, just for the people to be heard and we were heard. After 5,0000 petitions were completed and 6 ladies represented the area to the then NSW Minister of Transport, meetings with 30 important people around the Mount Druitt community, interviews with 2 local newspapers, The community got back 2 bus services out of 3. One of them was the major one 755 bus service. I always looked at peaceful constructive meetings that brought community results, back to the area. Politicians at first didn't like me - then I got asked to meet the Federal Member of Chifley, but due to work commitments, he met other community representatives. I was one of the original speakers at Sydney Alliance in Bowman Hall Blacktown. Other State & local politicians wanted to get to know me more. I believe in peaceful ways to change the community and even the world. I hope the rest of the world can grab onto the same idea.
Seeing how there in universal protests over one man that died and how he died in police custody (and shouldn't have died). This makes me think will the police officer involved and the other Police officers that they were with him, will they get their proper justice.
Especially now, they are charged. It will be hard to have an unbiased jury panel.
And the flip side to the coin is:
Would there be a universal uproar on the death of retired black St Louis retired Captain David Dorn, responding to an alarm at a Pawn Shop, during the riots? I would hope not. I would expect universal peaceful sympathy to him and his family, as he was doing his duty.
I say God Bless Australia & USA and I hope for peace in the USA for these hard times. Your voices are heard.
