Shockingly, not a single word from BLM or their ilk condemning the violence.

Democrats support this nonsense. They are a bunch of traitors. Trump needs to have some balls, send in the military to crush these wild animals and tell Congress to pound sand! The rioting and anarchy needs to stop. No more excuses!

Why not? Your certainly full of excuses in holding a political party to the fire. With not a shred of evidence.

Here's the reality. Not a single demonstrator was enslaved or even has a first knowledge experience. So they are ignorant on many levels.
I'm so fed up with dredging up incidences that have long been put in the past. That Pandora's box was closed thru civil rights and emancipation. So move along.

To me, that is part of the way that the Republicans can openly expose the Democrats - introduce resolutions condemning violent acts (but not peaceful protesting) and vandalism of specific, named statues of founding fathers and actual Civil War heroes (not Confederates) - such George Washington, Francis Scott Key, Ulysses S. Grant, the 54th Regiment Memorial, etc. - and force the Democrats to go on record as voting against the resolutions. That puts them on record as supporting the rioting, destruction and looting and has them demonizing George Washington, Francis Scott Key, Ulysses S. Grant & the 54th Regiment on record. There are certainly ways to make this uncomfortable and embarrassing for the Democratic Party.

One video clip showed a leader of the demonstrators, who was not identified, shouting into a loudspeaker in a challenge to white supremacists who historically have used Stone Mountain as a rallying spot of their own.

“I don’t see no white militia,” he declared. “We’re here. Where ... you at? We’re in your house. Let’s go.”

The article continues
How do you figure they were protesters? I didn't hear anyone give a speech. I didn't see anyone carrying signs.

WTH demanding reparations at gunpoint?

Did he say he was in a black militia? Interrogating motorists at gun point? Hahaha

We are 13% of the US population, the last thing we need is a race war.

Why don’t they patrol Southside Chicago, plenty of gangs will give them the gun fight they want.

If it looks and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck.

Your argument is that none of them have ever protested?

Well, that's one monument they won't be tearing down.
Dunno what is going to happen. It would take a MOAB to destroy it. I used to climb that mountain just about every day. Trail goes up the back side. Largest piece of exposed granite in the world.

You can't be serious. People are protesters only when they are actually protesting.

As for your "duck" thing -- they did not look like protesters because they weren't protesting. Therefore, by your own logic, they weren't protesters.
