This is me to a T.

I saw that think tank's results. The only peaceful outcome is if Biden wins, if Trump wins, the left will Burn, Loot, Murder, even worse than they did in 2016 and 1027, and more than they are now.


Maybe this is why the Dems will not disavow the BLM and antifa violence, they are leaning on those groups to command and control the post election riots.

Oh geez, they saw you coming,


Black Lives Matter is a Marxist, anti-America group which started in 2013. Before 2013, no one was characterizing support for racial equality or justice by reciting the phrase Black Lives Matter. They slapped up a name that has fooled people into thinking BLM actually care about improving race relations in the US, and working to protect black lives from crime and violence.

If black lives truly matter, I’m curious then as to why very little is done to stem black on black violence or the high rates of abortion in the black community.

Proof that a lot of people are very superficial and naive. They read the headlines, and think they are now informed about the news. They read the name of an organization, and they think they know what they stand for.

It's one reason why legislative bills in the US Congress sometimes have deceptive names, like Affordable Care, which are actually the opposite in scope and function. It's also why a lot of voter propositions are worded so poorly, that you vote for a law or change which actually does the opposite of what you think.

I'm talking about the meaning behind the name. What they do is a separate matter. Some of which are people associating people who are destroying property and causing harm to others with BLM.

I'll say it again, people are generally stupid.

I don't know, but what I do know is that other races lives do not matter any more or less than black lives. We're all equal. I judge people based on the individual, not the race, and I'll accept nothing less than the same.
