Umm... Not quite the same thing.

High taxes are a legitimate gripe.

BLM doesn't have a legitimate gripe.

Americans have sometimes been violent before, therefore we can be violent now. This is the moron-friendly logic on display here. Violent idiots don't feel like they need much justification to be violent idiots.

This is the most puerile of arguments, but an increasingly common trope from the left to be repeated by their unthinking drones.

Just to help you out a little because you clearly don't understand how you are being manipulated; because something happened in the past, it doesn't mean something allegedly similar is acceptable now. Think it through, this isn't complicated.

It's not that they lack the nerve to stop it; it is that it's worth it to them if it takes down President Trump.

Anyone need more proof BLM is a terrorist group and needs to be exterminated?
I have to admit....the headline is disturbing.....but if you read his comments.....he does not seem to be making that statement literally.

He Said also:
"I don't condone nor do I condemn rioting," Newsome added. "But I'm just telling you what I observed."

McCallum did a great job in maintaining her cool in the face of a blatant terrorist threat. What a monster he is.
Yes she did! Guy was being a total ass, but what more can one expect.
