Most Statesians lose their faith in cops/country in a similar way. There’s a reason US high schools don’t teach recent history. If it’s far enough back like the early 1900’s or 1800’s then you can rationalize it with platitudes like “it was a different time back then” or “we hadn’t evolved as a society yet”. Lot harder to rationalize away when it was only 40 years ago.

So they no longer teach recent history? Sucks. I think I’m now at an age where I can go terrorize a school board. My mother will be delighted!
I never learned about the Tulsa race massacre, and I live in state. I was much older when I learned about it.
