Because racial apartheid worked so well for South Africa...

Why not fix the broken media, instead of segregating everything by race?

Fixing the broken media is a necessity. I don't think that racial apartheid in one country is a good solution... just that it's how things are headed.

Also our per-capita people killed by police is 50x what it is in most of Europe. So there is definitely a national police violence problem. They aren't trained well enough, and there is rarely serious justice for wrongdoing for police.

There are many factors that affect these numbers. It's not clear that European numbers are the ideal, or what should be expected in America. Regardless, it would be a lot easier to tackle if it didn't have a massive amount of racial grievance tacked on. The inevitable fact that some groups will be killed disproportionately by police means that without unity, as well as an acceptance of inequality, these issues cannot be amicably solved.
