The mainstream media isn't reporting on many of these violent incidents taking place.
This one happened in Milwaukee:

And who is being targeted? The white "unwoke" people. Talk about racism. They are targeting people for the colour of their skin.



BLM is a big FAIL a Big LIE but what else should we expect from a Democrat backed, social justice warrior, feel good, knee jerk reactionary movement? What a bunch of hypocrites.

It's always fun to watch those on the left try to spin news about BLM into something it is visibly not. The lengths that they go to blur the lines and pander to them should be found to be repulsive by any person who claims to love their country. Most of the people out there holding up BLM stuff have no clue what they're even representing. They are just losers who want so badly to be a part of something. Anything.

There is no context on this video. Maybe it's just typical city turf/drug violence.

Agreed that there is no context but it doesn't appear to be just a typical drug-related or gang-related shooting. What is most striking is how many people are around and they don't scatter in the aftermath of the gunshots - they just keep walking around and milling about like multiple gunshots didn't just go off. This isn't normal.

The media is using BLM to practice with in getting ready for Biden if he should win. Covering for Biden with the "spin" they are going to have to be moving as fast as a centrifuge and possibly a particle accelerator.





I agree that most white people have no clue what they are protesting and BLM has no clue what they really want. Let's end racism? Ok it was pretty much ended before all this nonsense...

I dont think so. Appears to be traffic blocking "protesters" ( in that vein they are typical hood thugs) The neighborhood they're in doesnt look like the hood.

This invading different areas and pulling crap like this is going to trigger reprisals. A group tried to organize a looting and rioting event in the small town I'm from a couple weeks ago.

15 van loads showed up and were met by the locals where they had posted they were going to stage. They left without incident.

That's ironic to say, considering the hysteria that BLM is generating over a very small number of questionable incidents regarding police.

You would think the Tulsa massacre was happening daily considering how vocal and enraged people are.

You have people telling their kids to walk around afraid of cops because they are looking to kill them at a moments notice.

That is simply statistically not the case in any way shape or form, and that is REAL hysteria.

This mentality is doing tremendous, tremendous damage to the psyche of kids. It's just outright stupid.

You teach your kids to not fight with police, not admit to guilt, and argue their case with a lawyer if they ever get arrested. That's it. You do that, and you don't commit any crimes, your chances of having negative interactions with the police that end in your death are close to the chance of being struck by lighting. And anecdotes don't change that. The people killed unjustly should get justice with more police accountability. I'm fully on board with that.

But this crap that's being sold in the media about how dangerous police are to black kids is the true madness going on, and it has to stop, but it's only accelerating.
