Thinking back, what dominated the news cycle for the the first 8 months of 2020? Looking back I remember Federal Buildings being attacked. F The Police signs flashed nightly on CNN. Pepper Spray and fireworks being shot at police.

The year of BLM and ANTIFA.

By the way, it was also our worst year ever for homicides. Homicides were up 35% in the top 75 cities in America.

Most of those homicides were black-on-black crime as usual.

Some of the biggest proponents of defunding the police paid the biggest price to their black communities with huge spikes in violence and murder in their jurisdictions.

While there's always multiple reasons for any spike in violence. Can we just call the kettle black and say that BLM is not moving the needle in the right direction for American interests? Or has America shifted to say that BLM and ANTIFA is the norm now, and we should all allow for their destruction?
