Well, it seems the BLM movement and these protests are quickly turning into an anti-white movement. They don't seem to like their 'white liberal allies' very much.
At least he's being honest about what they really want.
It would have to be whites being brought down and minorities being brought up, and since affirmative action and other programs aren't doing it fast enough or punishing whites badly enough, just appropriate assets directly from white individuals and give it to minorities.
I am a full blooded Indian and don’t qualify for any of the reservations, tax breaks, quotas, or government goods that The Bureau of Indian Affairs has granted. Can I sue for same rights as the indigenous tribes based on being Indian?
You're full blooded Indian and dont qualify? Sooo...what tribe? Hell I know people getting benefits who are just 1/8th. Or am I misunderstanding and you are Indian as from India?
I dont use the "Native" term and neither does any Paiute, Shoshone or Washoe Indian I know. Those are the tribes here and the ones I've spent a great deal of time with. The answer to your question is rather rhetorical dontcha think?
The "Native American" thing is something the Indians I know well disdain. They've been "Indians" all their lives and are quite content to remain so. If they wanna get any deeper they go by their tribal name.

Yep: my parents are from India and immigrated to the U.S in 1979 and I was born in Pennsylvania, raised in California and suffered the confusion of Columbus’s boo-boo as a result. If they call themselves Indians, I want the same rights as them.
We'll have to agree to disagree, there. If that were true, we'd be hearing this sort of stuff from the majority of people involved in the movement, not just some one-off nutter.
but its these very loud "one-off nutters" that are making the most noise
its the one-off'rs that are saying that black criminals are more important than cops doing their jobs to protect the majority
its the one-off'rs that are saying that all cops are crap and we need NO law enforcement
its the one-off'rs that are saying that non-whites are more important than whites, and whites should have a pay cap of 45k
its the one-off'rs that are saying that all criminals should be released from prison
its the one-off'rs that are saying that illegals are more important than citizens or people who come here legally
its the one-off'rs, and in this case, the LEADER of the Seattle protest (according to the OP) that are saying , and very loudly these things

Makes it interesting when there are Indians from India. I have both heritages but use Indian for my heritage from India and Amerindian/First Nations for my heritage from the Americas. (My Amerindian heritage is not from the U.S.). It's interesting that indigenous people here in the U.S. cleave to Indian but guess its understandable. Native American is problematic as well.

Are you trying to make my point for me? You're doing a really good job of it.
Yes, the VAST majority of looney ideas being put forward are coming from the fringe. I'm pleased you recognize it.
As for the "leader" of the protest - if you don't think the wingnuts in "CHAZ" are not the fringiest of the fringe, you need to have another look.
the point I am making is they (the few) are the loudest of the bunch, and when the loudest few make all the noise, they become the majority or the spokespersons for the ENTIRE movement..
they (the few) make the movement, NOT appealing to the rest of the US and the world
because of these 'few' you have cities talking about defunding AND DISBANDING the police....these "few" are talking for the entire group and make these entire groups look like nutjobs
Somehow, I doubt he ever did have white friends lol
