Why would "the left" not "like it"?
Most Black folk who suffer through police violence and discrimination *ARE* part of the Left. Also, many White Leftists are more than aware of the existence of anti-Black discrimination, and join us in solidarity to resist and fight it.

The left is really not going to like it, but minorities are in fact disenfranchised by being a) predominantly the ones arrested for felonies and b) because this country allows white people to carry around guns as a right, and then runs Jim Crow laws to keep minorities in a special underclass that doesn't have that right.
So, on top of the state bias in violence against minorities, the state promotes a more personal violence against minorities.

Your feelings do not change the actual state of the world, whether you find something distasteful or not. If you start making questionable claims, you should at least stick to ones that aren't trivial to disprove.
Particularly when you make claims that minorities aren't disenfranchised, from a position of privilege.

Have all the white people never heard of how we got the police?
