BLM is not seeking equality of opportunity. They want a new America, with new laws, a new financial system, and equality of outcome for all black people. Some day this will finally dawn on you, tiny. They aren’t the good guys.

And they want to abolish police forces and prisons. Prisons.

I spent some time listening to someone on the far left Democracy Now elaborate--so that I understood their movement better. They kept railing against 'mass incarceration,' but for no reason. Not addressing that people in prison commit crimes. They weren't talking about wrongful convictions, but the very concept of incarceration. Then it hit me: they want criminals out on the streets. They are now being pretty open about that, which is shocking.

She getting her fame... but puts herself in a bad place. BLM is a good ideology but many other dangerous radicals have taken over what most want - which is peace and equality. I have no answer how to separate the two, but many have clumped all together ---as always, which is the BIGGER problem.
She is standing up against the communists and marxists who have historically and continue to remove her God from society and relinquish her right to worship whom she wants. Millions of people killed by communists and Marxists in the last century for not believing what they were told to. The current cancel culture is the seed of such a government.

She is fighting for among other things her faith and the right to worship and believe what she wants without being FALSELY labeled, classified, and cancelled. So, forgive me if I support her 100% and think you are full of it.

The base is NOT- I agree with you... why I call it the SWORD, where else should they turn tell me? Who will stand up for their plight?
Wanting a new America, I agree with- but in a democratic way. Corps and bad politicians have turned it into a mess for many people. We are not winning. Blacks, Latinos and others are still mistreated. Do you want all to be equal or not? If so- what the answer? I live in the south I know what I know and what I have seen. please do tell how do you change those relic puppets in Congress and a detached potus?

Why? The answer is contained within the timeline that you provided. Nearly every riot since 1980, and many of them before that, was sparked by a black criminal being subdued by the police. Most people don't feel that the life of a criminal is worth rioting over. In fact, most people are just as happy to have criminals removed from society. But a highly visible share of black people, and their guilt-ridden white liberal allies, would rather take the side of the criminal over the side of the forces of law and order.

Martin Luther King offered compelling arguments for acknowledging the shared humanity of black people. He exposed injustice and appealed to the innate sense of right and wrong that most people possess. That's why his movement was ultimately successful, and why people of every race regard him as a hero. But the current BLM folks "appeal" to racial division and the destruction of law and order, history, and the majority culture. So yeah, we're listening, all right. But we don't like what we're hearing. And the more they "talk," the more we will resist what they're demanding.

By that very action, I can easily call people who rip down Confederate statues heroes.

In her case we can let God decide, I only judge her actions not her beliefs. Jesus was not political, and I am certain if the sign on the road read,,, WLM or all lives matter - and she trashed it, you would be on the other side of this coin. and you have a right to your opinion, my hubby died for that freedom, so be free to express it.
