And I guess you got a 400 year chronology to back that up? In other words, you are saying that A = B and B = C.....but not that A = C because the latter implies racism.

Anyone who is a slave now in this country deserves to be compensated. Anyone who owns a slave in this country today, needs to be incarcerated. Otherwise, quit the whining and start rowing this boat with the rest of us and stop rowing it the other direction.
We are all one people. We are Americans and it's time all people in this country get on board. That includes my people.

Not sure if you're aware of this but it isn't 1859 anymore. Please set your clocks forward 156 years.

I'm sure a if this is true this will only make BLM a stronger force to reckon with or in my case annoy with. I was talking about this yesterday but could everyone imagine if in the future Black Lives Matter (BLM) was a major political party in the United States? I'm sure they want it to be!

White supremacists shoot 5 Black Lives Matter protesters | New York Post

I don't know the details here; but, IF correct, this could get ugly real fast and tho I think "BLM" is a sick joke. I just hope the perps; if found guilty, get theirs. I'm "white" and def proud of it but, the "storm front" kind are as bad as hood rats. Period.
I hope those guiyy are caught and charged acoordingly.

I read the article and the writer repeatedly said "white supremacists" several times.

I did NOT see ANY proof the writers claim.

"Another witness, Oluchi Omeoga, reported seeing three strangers wearing masks among the protesters. The three left the protest and several protesters followed them to a street corner, where the masked men pulled out weapons and gunshots rang out, Omeoga said."

They might be and they might NOT be.

I do NOT like the press automatically "labeling" people with no proof.

How are you able to determine that someone wearing a mask is a stranger?

I still can't get over this ridiculous comment. So someday when the country has finally spiraled down to 3rd world craphole status...most people living in cardboard/plywood shacks and pooping in trenches these fine progressive "patriots" will be hailed just like the founding fathers.

People will be disgusted by the days when Americans had a beautiful, safe society of enlightenment and invention but a few got left out for reasons they thought was the color of their skin. When in reality it was the shortfalls in their intellect and character.


But they bred like rabbits and steamrolled the terrible old Americans right out of the country. Oh, that will be a great day.
