Comedy Central host Trevor Noah is defending the looting taking place in Minneapolis and other cities across America in reaction to the death of George Floyd, saying that black people are simply reacting to how they’ve been treated by society at large.
The Daily Show comedian also blamed the police for the large scale rioting and looting. “Police are looting black bodies,” he said.
“Amy Cooper was for many people, I think, the catalyst,” said Noah, in a nearly 20-minute YouTube monologue posted Friday in which he rambled at length about social contracts, the coronavirus, race relations, and failures of law enforcement. “I think Amy Cooper was one of the first dominoes that we saw get knocked down post-coronavirus.”
Black people “watch time and time again how the contract they have signed with society is not being honored by the country that has forced them to sign it with them,” he said.
Noah also blamed law enforcement for the widespread violence: “If the example the law enforcement is setting is that they do not adhere to the laws, they why should the citizens of that society adhere to the laws when the law enforcers themselves don’t?”
The comedian concluded by launching a defense of people who have looted stores, government buildings, and small businesses in the past two days.
“Try to imagine how it must feel for black Americans when they watch themselves being looted every single day,” he said. “Because that’s fundamentally what’s happening in America. Police in America are looting black bodies.”
Noah, who hails from South Africa, said black lives are valued less than white lives in America
wonder how he would feel if it was HIS house or place of business
yep anyone know where this guy lives, perhaps a few people can let any nearby looters know. We will just have to make sure only the black looters show up. We can send the white guys to someplace that is not so particular. We wouldn't want to offend Trevor by sending white looters to his home would we now.
I love how the OP puts "Liberal or Progressive icon" in front of all of his titles. Like he's trying to make it seem like these people speak for all liberals or something.
I know a lot of liberals. I’m pretty sure all of them parrot his same message.
Millions watch this guy for daily indoctrination.
So yes, he’s an icon and speaks for the unhinged low information mob known as the democrat party.
