Indeed. Let it be known that 'the right" stands tall FOR murder of black men on the street. That is what a 'counter protest" would be.

Liberty and justice for all?

This is getting out of hand.

One man has taken matters into his own hands though. He drove car into protesters, and shot someone

I am not suggesting that is what needs to be done unless of course is looters, and vandalizers. But something needs to be done.

If this continues, the Loony Left will get everything they want, and this country will be in the shetters. There will be no more police.

It's a free country. If you don't like the protests led by the BLM movement you are free to show up and peacefully protest against the people protesting against injustice. But please be aware; if you join those anti-protesters you'll be in the company of people that lack moral fortitude and those who have compromised character due to racism tarnishing their very souls...

Fight back? People are crying out for their lives and dignity and you take a few opportunists and agitators and lump them all together and now find cause to "fight" back.



Yet, black people aren't allowed to call all white people racists. You want to be seen as individuals. Well, so do black people. But I see you're more outraged at looters than black people loosing their lives, dignity, and even wealth due to systemic racism and discrimination.



How about fighting against the reasons why people are protesting in the first place? Eliminate the need to protest and you eliminate the opportunists, looters, and rioters.


Keep ignoring the message behind the tears, the pain, and the anger, and you'll see more of the same.



THe protesters are protesting for change. I don't know about you, but living in a world where people are respected for who they are and not the color of their skin would allow all of us to breathe a little easier and focus on moving forward and brothers and patriots.

I hope you're right.

But I see this as the end game. And you're probably gonna lose it all anyway. This shyt is going on all over the civilized western world.

The UK, Australia, NZ, Canada, France, the EU. This is an organized communist revolt. There are a lot of players in the mix. India doesn't really have any of this stuff going on, but they are having military incursions and skirmishes with the Chinese, to keep them destabilized. Think it thru. Ultimately the money trail will lead back to the CCP, that unleashed a bio weapon on the world. Connect the dots, it isn't hard to do.

I see this getting much worse leading up to the election. And it will really boil over on November 4th, regardless of whom takes the golden ring.

There have been a lot of them, but on the right, they have lately been called "rallies".

You may be confused because of the absence of looting, arson, rioting, and the like. Instead, these rallies are typically a large group of people cheering and booing in response to a lead speaker, who leads the rally in a controlled and socially responsible manner.

Weird, huh? You guys on the left should try it sometime. If you can find a leader who is charasmatic enough to draw and hold a crowd made up of more than few hundred people.

The "peaceful protestors" are providing cover for criminals who want to destroy and destabilize America by causing as much chaos and destruction as possible. They are useful idiots and tools.

As long as it doesn't impact me personally I can pretty much tune it all out, but as soon as I'm assaulted or someone damages my property, it will turn ugly. Luckily I live in a rural area so I really don't have to deal with it.

Oh... Okay, have fun with that Mr. Trump supporter.

Oh, it's way more than just George Floyd's fan club.

Sunday night Life, Liberty and Levin had some good guests who brought some rational, intelligent thought to the problem. If you get a chance, be sure to look it up. People want to burn and destroy their homes while making irrational demands only make themselves look bad but lack the IQ to understand that. They aren't protesting the death of the idiot who resisted arrest but demonstrating their own lack of moral compass. Other people come to the United States and do well which speaks volumes about any ridiculous claims. How sad that they want their 15 minutes of violence. Can't you just see that on a resume five years on.

I would rather die standing up than live on my knees.

Amen!
