The double standard can’t be this wide. Can you imagine if a group of violent far-right activists came to a black majority neighborhood and threatened to burn it down? It would be front page international news. Society has completely handcuffed us from sticking up for ourselves out of fear of being labeled racist. This can’t continue we need to speak up. Most of these leftists have nothing to lose, they are being honest when they say they’ll burn down the suburbs.

Once they make that threat, I would say homeowners are justified in shooting the racist BLM on sight. They have been threatened and need to take that threat seriously.

Just another aggrieved loser who is trying to latch themselves onto a movement bigger than themselves to try to feel important. These are literally the dregs and lemmings of society. All complaining while doing nothing to actually better their situations. It is easier just to complain and complain instead of take action to make your life better.

People just need to obey the law, but do what they need to if they have a serious encounter. Everyday is just another day for me. No more or less fear than the previous day. But of course I live down south where this stuff may not be as prevalent.

If they simply put as much effort into bettering themselves as they do protesting they would be successful. That’s what’s most upsetting.

One summer of protest = 9 or so credit hours toward an associates/bachelors degree for those not already enrolled in college.

That could be 9 credit hours toward making whatever change they desire in society.

They've even torn down a racist dinosaur statue in Kenosha.
