I think any objective person would say that y'all started it by using the other slogan that implies that white lives don't matter.

No, that's exactly what it means, because whites get shot by police disproportionately more often than blacks. In other words, BLM is based on a fake grievance that was manufactured to hurt white people.

Well "whites" may get shot more by police due to being a majority of the population but do they die in a higher proportion than blacks?
No they don't in percentage wise.

BLM didn't arise from hating cops but how many black men just under arrest have died under a police officer's hand.

If white people were being murdered by cops at the same rate as blacks there would be Congressional hearings so please stop "feigning" the hypocrisy.

200 or so members of League of the South, the Traditionalist Worker’s Party, National Socialist Movement, Vanguard America, ... showed up in Shelbyville around 11:30 am, about an hour and a half late.

About twice that many counter-protesters were waiting, many singing Christian hymns that drowned out the speeches and "Blood and soil" chanting.

At 1:00 pm the protesters marched out and folks dispersed to Murfreesboro where the next rally was scheduled to start at 2:00 pm.

"owing to the much larger population, proximity to Nashville, and the presence of Middle Tennessee State University in the town," they were outnumbered there as well.

Unfortunately, less than a dozen protesters showed. Apparently, these unfortunate fellows didn't get the tweet from Hunter Wallace, head of public relations for the League of the South, that they were withdrawing to a state park about 45 minutes away.

"As word circulated that the supremacists had given up on their rally, the crowd in Murfreesboro became jubilant."

"They thought they could come here and talk ****," said Teazy, a local man who identified himself as being of mixed race. "They're obviously outnumbered. Love always wins."

Wonder if this will be the pattern for future KKK/Nazi rallies?

They show up late and then retreat.

Another interesting tidbit is from Brad Griffin, public relations chief for The League of the South, who stated that that since the police protected them well at a previous rally in Shelbysville, the organization trusted local law enforcement to protect them well again.

"The demographics of the cities also played a role in the decision. Both Shelbyville, with about 20,000 people, and Murfreesboro, with about 130,000 people, are in more rural counties that heavily favored President Donald Trump in the 2016 election."

So most people think whites are hateful. I don't.

Blacks put there blackness first and have been for years . They play the victim card all the time.

Walk in a white persons shoes and know injustice happens to all races and colors . Life is no cake walk for white people.
