There are radicals overflowing on both sides : Rioters, looters, cop killers and the people of CHAZ.

People protesting against injustice on the other : peaceful protesters, BLM

Called it like it is.

See how that works?

Why does pointing out the fact that BLM is a cop killing terrorist group equal an agenda? It's the objective truth.

Who said a cop killer shouldn't be arrested?

I was pointing out that trying to contrast BLM as some organization worthy of being contrasted with cop killers is stupid and ridiculous. BLM is a cop killing movement.

Or are the "Boogaboos" or whatever they are called, not a cop killing movement now?

You can't have it both ways.

And I'll never stop reminding people about the 2016 cop deaths. The fact that BLM is allowed to (largely) uncritically operate after 2016 is a travesty.

One person was shot and seriously wounded in Albuquerque, N.M., as protesters sought to topple a statue of Spanish conquistador Juan de Oñate.

The protest, held near the city's Tiguex Park, called for the removal of the statue that stands outside the Albuquerque Museum.


Neither the shooter nor the victim — said by police to be in critical but stable condition and undergoing treatment at a local hospital – was immediately identified. However, some protesters blamed the far-right New Mexico Civil Guard, whose members were carrying firearms as they tried to protect the statue, for the shooting.

"We are receiving reports about vigilante groups possibly instigating this violence," Police Chief Michael Geier was quoted in a department tweet as saying. "If this is true will be holding them accountable to the fullest extent of the law, including federal hate group designation and prosecution."

I'm talking about BLM vs. those that oppose black people protesting against injustice. I wasn't referring to antifa, leftist, or anything like that but nice try..

Truth be told, white nationalist and their supporters are the biggest threat domestically to America. Most of us protesting are doing so peacefully and we're doing so for a righteous reason. Those that have always been historically against black people's civil rights are all stacked up on the other side of this battle. So no, you are not going to be allowed to undervalue the entire movement against oppression and police brutality without being challenged..

You think that four years is cause to absolve BLM of the murder of five cops?

What kind of sociopathic logic is that?

The movement should have been dustbinned after that event.

He wasn't part of BLM, he was part NBPP and more extreme groups classified as terrorists by SPLC, and got kicked out of at least 1 if not 2 of those groups. He also served in the military. Maybe the military should be disbanded because both of these terrorists got their training from the U.S Military. That's idiocy to even suggest see how that works.

He famously thought BLM guys weren't extreme enough. I'd never actually read his story, but it's interesting, I had always thought he was just a terrorist, who was a black nationalist, but apparently he was normal till he got disillusioned with the military after sexually harassing a female service member, and claiming she lied on him (although it's pretty obvious she didn't from the story). He also had no previous criminal record. I guess it really is true that terrorists, always have some other personal/underlying issue going on, their also saying that's it's possible he had a mental problem. I really wonder could terrorism largely be solved through mental health becoming increasingly more important in society.

I've heard a lot of terrorists in the UK and France were irreligious gang members till they "found god" in jail and got radicalized. I'm sure their's a connection between being a gang member turning your life around and worshiping god, in a way that is thuggish.

The biggest threat to the US are the demographics that produce the most violence.

And no, just because a few white nationalists do these things does not mean they all do nor support such actions, you paint such a broad brush with them, yet want to distant the protesters from the rioters and take offense if anyone lumps them in the same group.

Blacks have the highest crime and murder rates of any group.

Blacks do more intra and inter-racial killing than any other group.

And its not close. Want to talk stats?

You may want to avoid talk of "biggest threats" lest some information that is talked around become front and center.

A White man is 11.2X more likely to be killed by a Black stranger than the inverse, using 2018 FBI statistics. To start. The stats are downhill from there.

Murder is murder. Want to talk about it? Or do you simply have a pathetic excuse in regard to every day Black barbarity and its common fallout?

You aren't doing a single thing "righteously" because you can't analyze statistics. If you could and would, you'd see that you are lucky that other races aren't filling the streets protesting Black violent criminality and its continued national cost.

You have all of the Civil Rights, to include employment preferences and other help, and you still murder yourselves at 5X the rate that Whites murder Whites. What other stats do you want to analyze?

You don't fall victim to cops at a greater rate than any other race per interaction, and more Whites are killed by cops on a pure volume basis.

Your only problem is yourselves. Get your crime rate down, have less police interaction, and experience less tragedy. Its a simple formula that other races all use.

Instead, you math-avoidant babies decide to burn down parts of cities, loot, and kill because of the results of your own crime and lack of impulse control.

So, please, with your self righteousness. The only thing you are demonstrating is your vulnerability to being used as puppets by the press, will toward apologizing for your criminals, and will toward violence and destruction given even poor excuses.
