The case of George Floyd has recently started. Part of me wonders if somehow the police will wiggle out of this one. No doubt there is more complexity to any case than just a video but it makes me wonder why does the balance of the evidence almost always seem to confirm the status quo. Maybe it's simply because society has built into it things that bend the arc of injustice toward the status quo.
Indeed, when you think about who makes the laws and sets the mores of a society, isn't it usually the people in power?
