Because things were going so well in Alabama, weren't they?
No, the Freedom Riders were brave people who despite the danger to themselves did so due to racial injustice.

Big difference today. People are now paid to cause problems, it only takes a few to get the mob mentality going.

So many examples if you pay attention.

So it's good that people like you are pushed into the center. It's a win all around.

Show me the money. You think George is tippy-toeing around the country handing out cash? There's got to be a money trail and there's no reliable basis for those Soros-paid demonstrator claims. Put up or shut up...everyone is laughing at you.

Soros did provide a $250 million line of credit to Jared Kushner (Cadre) who I guess is protesting quietly in his room.

there are peaceful protests across the nation every day so not really sure why you felt the need to act like the "elites" are better or worse than flyover states.

But you said that they were bussed in by lefties to cause trouble. Now you're mad that I brought them up?

Isn't Alabama in "flyover country?" Why weren't they peacefully protesting when the Freedom Riders came to the state?

What's the matter with HISTORY?

People want to preserve the confederate flag , the statues and confederate monuments because they're HISTORY.

Well, Jim Crow, segregation, lynchings, the freedom riders, etc are HISTORY too but you don't want to remember THAT history, do you?

Typical.

Nope, not mad.......I'm sorry you don't understand that was an entirely different situation/time period.....and yes, just as you, I am in fly over country....not sure what point you're trying to make with that statement...

So, you really are saying that those people, The Freedom Riders, are in the same class/situation as antifa?

Typical, yes....
