First of all you conveniently omit the VIOLENCE and destruction being caused during these anti-police BLM/Antifa Commie riots. Peaceful protests? Not quite. Countless videos of anarchy and looting throughout the country by these commie thugs. Nice job they did beating a white guy unconscious in Portland. Nice job screaming at white people to give up their homes and pay them money. Screaming nasty things at police. These aren’t small groups but coordinated efforts to undermine western values and culture. Toppling statues and banning movies - hmmm sounds like the taliban. This is what the Democrats support and what they have been downplaying so their ignorant followers won’t know what’s happening. BLM has nothing to do with Black Lives or else they would be marching through their communities during this great surge in killings. It’s mostly white anarchist fascists. Stop making excuses for them.
As for your little snipe at Christians. Who is chanting gay slurs? The twenty members of the Westboro Baptist church? Nice try. Way to ignore the MUSLIMS around the world who are banning and jailing and killing gays. How about the horrible homophobia that rages in the BLACK community? (And anti-semitism). Those loving peaceful Muslims also have a bad track record with women’s issues. Wanna talk about that? How bout it feminists? Doesn’t fit the narrative for you so like an obedient comrade you twist things around to paint a different picture, sorry, won’t work.
The unholy alliance between LGBTQ and Islam is truly a sight to behold.
These people are sick.
Some cultures are better than others.
Response: The one commonality I have noticed among all ethnicity provoking and engaging in violence is their age.
They are young adults split between parents that did not raise them well and have now come to the realization
that they are failures thereby engaging in violence as an outlet or successful young adults whose parents treated them well by
molding them into contributing members of society whom you here nothing of as they continue to work to save lives and the economy.
People love that talking point because it is a "gotcha!" moment for them. As if they actually believe today's Democratic party is the same as the one back then. Willful ignorance.*
*And no, I am not a democrat so don't come for me, anyone lol. Facts are facts.
And beyond that... who really cares if a random protest group says something bad? That is their right as AMERICANS. A constitutionally given right which so many people froth at the mouth to defend, and rightly so. If a single word offends you so much that you crumble maybe you're no better than an SJW. I also find it laughable that people are flinging insults at me like I am some bleeding heart tree hugging hippy lol. There is no middle ground anymore, apparently. Either you're extremely right or extremely left.
BLM as an organization is awful though (but as a sentiment, "black lives matter" is completely right. As a group they do need to reign in the protestors because of the looting and because they are not centralized at all. But that is another issue.
Exactly, no more room for a sane middle ground. And yes that new BLM is not what it used to be, but as you say, they can protest and say whatever they want, the alt-right protested in Virginia and the president even called them “very fine people”, yelling all types of racial slurs.
The KKK which should have been banned and is an actual terror group is still active. But a handful of liberal protesters say a word or two, not even about a general population, but targeted persons in Particular, and that makes BLM the KKK???
If anything, they should do what BLM does, identify the persons who said these words, make their videos go viral and get in touch with their bosses and get them fired, if that can make you feel better, I don’t know.
BLM and KKK can gather and make witty posters and shout whatever they want.
But the moment they start trashing the place and private business, blocking normal citizens on the road or sidewalk, and assaulting Law enforcement then they gots to go.
What President Trump actually said was, "There are very fine people on both sides as well as miscreants on both sides."
Another absolutely true statement by our President twisted up like a pretzel by the willful arrogant media elite.
No. Onee of those "sides" was composed of Neo Nazis and White Supremacists, so we were supposed to assume that the group of Neo Nazis and White Supremacists included some "very fine people." No. If you are a Neo Nazi or a White Supremacist, you are not a "very fine person." That is an unthreadable needle.
Response: The failure to understand the true meaning of Conservatism is so blatant.
Honesty, integrity, family values, patriotism, fiscal and personal responsibility?
With Trump as the nominee it's more like corruption, xenophobia, fear mongering, environmental degradation, debt, treason, and it's Obama's fault!!!
If it wasn't the party of Trump, I could have supported a Republican for mayor of NYC, especially after DeBlasio. But those who stand up to him end up leaving the party.
