these folks' knack of knowing just what to do to get others to empathize with them is sheer genius
Black Lives Matter St. Paul intends to hold a rally to disrupt operations at the Minnesota State Fair during its opening weekend, the group announced Thursday.
Dubbed #BlackFair, organizers plan to protest St. Paul police shootings and alleged racial disparities at Minnesota’s largest community gathering during a march and demonstration outside the gates. Beginning at 11 a.m. on Aug. 29, supporters will march from Hamline Park down Snelling Avenue to the State Fair gates, disrupting traffic along their route.
They should team up with the Westboro Baptist Church and they can carpool to the next disruption party!
Personally, if they started blocking interstates, I'd just plow through. I have places to go and am on a very tight schedule. I don't like to waste time.

I understand your sentiment but if you were to do that you would never get to where you were going because you would be spending the next decade or so in jail. I really do understand the feeling...I'd be tempted to do the same. However I have kids to feed and other responsibilities to live up to. A civilized man with civilized concerns. lol
Just another "Hate Group" looking for people to join them. I'm sure George Soros will give them money so they can go buy protesters like the OWS Group.

That's what I thought when I first read this. If you want to alienate people potentially sympathetic to your main message, this is a great way to do it. Cause a major inconvenience to people who are just out for a good family time and don't want to be worried about political/social considerations for a few minutes of their lives, and you thrust your political agenda right into their face.....good idea, NOT !
Perhaps they should take marketing 101 first.
