Since Juneteenth is about the end of slavery, shouldn’t it be a celebration of the soldiers who fought and died to end slavery?

Why not? Who do you think freed the slaves? Black people should get down on their knees every Juneteenth and thank a white person for delivering them from bondage.

Bravo.

What has always irked me is how these race-baiting jackoffs will constantly run down this country for having slaves but NEVER give the country it's due for ENDING slavery.

This is the kind of thinking that makes sense, so liberals don't understand it.

Juneteenth has literally nothing to do with police and I'm all for it being a holiday

Why can’t we just give (Washington, Oregon, California, D.C, Chicago, Atlanta, and the northeast) to all the people who want to defund the police, self police themselves, no government oversight, or anyone telling them what they can and do a study to see how things turn out.

You used to be able to just laugh off these nuts as crazy and the world went about it’s day. Now these people are the loudest voice in the room with the same idiotic ideals.

Progressives pushed politics into social life. Get used to it.

In honor of Junteenth all police officers, that patrol majority black neighborhoods, should be given the day off with pay. Let's make the black communities free from the popo and sit back and watch.

Because if you call them out you end up losing your job, having your family threatened, etc. They don't play by any set of normal rules.
