So after all of that, still 61% of white americans stands by the side of the police? As a normal european citizens, americans what is your problem? Something like that here would have been considered unacceptable by everyone, beside some stupid neo fascist parties that fortunately are a small minority: not only killing a person for nothing, but then using violence against peaceful protesters.

Stupid neo fascist parties make up at least half of America and currently hold the presidency and Senate. That is the problem. Europe is racist as fuck but America's racism is on a whole new level. It's so ingrained into American culture, we have monuments glorifying it. Many Americans are proud of it. It's a core part of their identity. The entire society is based upon it. Entire industries depend on it (police, prison, etc.). And this goes back hundreds of years. That's the problem. It's hard to be a normal person in the US and denounce this history and stand up for what's right. So half are not and do not.
