The protesting here  in USA would have had a more poignant impact , "if" it was done peacefully! Thus honoring George Floyd.

As is being done, All the Looting was done for "self" gain, (not to honor George) and then all the destruction done was criminal!


What I feel like you are not understanding by this statement is that many were protesting peacefully-

Other groups came in, and people from other states and began the rioting and looting and destruction. 

White people were looting. White people were destroying. There is video of it. 

Also in Seattle people were protesting peacefully UNTIL the officers in riot gear showed up. Kind of strange isn't it.


But of course everyone will associate the looting and rioting with black people.




Really didn't single out "black" people rioting & looting, what I did say was that rioting and looting "dishonored" George.

Done by "agitators", it was said 80% of the demonstrators were peaceful, but they were overshadowed by the rowdy rioters, that endangered the actual peaceful protestors.

No you didn't single out black people but you didn't make the distinction about protestors-you said their message would have been heard more clearly if.......
which linked the peaceful protestors to the rioters-black or white.

We had some peaceful protestors today, but this is mostly a small, wealthy community. Not me, but everyone else. Orlando was a different story.

Well . . . our Governor has declared a statewide curfew through next Sunday.

Seems my hometown, Scottsdale, was targeted by looters masquerading as protestors.  All young, mostly white and brown, targeting Old Town and a huge shopping mall.  Millions of dollars in damages and thefts. 

The social media message calling the thugs to rally (this is an honest to God verbatim quote):  "We gone take this protest, rage, anger, sadness and hurt to the white people community.  They need to hear our cry they need to LISTEN.".

Nothing says "racial payback" like looting a Crate and Barrel, an Apple Store, P.F. Changs, Roche Bobois Paris, Neiman Marcus and Urban Outfitters . . .Sprinkles Cupcakes, too.

Me . . . an Air Fryer from Target would seal the deal for me.

Susan Rice is now proposing the theory the riots and looting is due to Russian interference.

This time, she should have stuck to the video story . . . like her Benghazi bullshit.

What a cunt!

It's time to release the hounds!  (A centuries old British phrase related to fox hunting . . . not coon hunting.  Also a British TV show . . . and a Mr. Burn's catchphrase)

I keep telling people that the rioters and looters and peaceful protesters are 2 dif groups, but then a video emerges and it proves me wrong, but I do know there are 2 different groups-protestors are just protesting, not rioting or looting.

Here is a nice video

There are videos emerging that show black protestors taking down white people in ninja outfits causing destruction and handing them over to the police.

There's definitely something fishy going on with these groups.

Earlier Duchess blamed him for America being on fire and the riots. Now he goes live on TV and condones it and agrees that it is interfering with peaceful protestors. He says that if the govenors can't get it under control, he will. So now thats not good enough either because he's not personally there to see who's peaceful and who is not.

I want to find a clearer timeline of George Floyd's death. I've seen another video of where he was in the back of a cop car and it looked like they were already beating the shit out of him, one cop mentioned cameras and apparently the vehicle was moved.

Also I want to find out more information about Chauvin's wife who is reportedly divorcing him but she is also related to the other officer Tou-so it all just seems to be for show??? Also I don't know how much time I want to devote to this part because it doesn't really matter to me I am just curious about it.

Also I have been hearing reports that Floyd and Chauvin knew each other?

Also-how does it go from some guy presenting a counterfit bill to death? I mean why would he need to be arrested anyway? We see counterfits at the bank or in town all the time and no one gets arrested-they just get asked, "Where did you get this?"

It is so wierd I don't understand the timeline of events that lead up to even being in handcuffs. Also the others in the car-and the girl that recorded one of the videos-she was only 17! That is so fucked up. : (

I saw it said several times that chances are the divorce is so she can keep the house and whatever other assets they have.

I heard they were bouncers together at a club. Take that for what it's worth. I haven't seen confirmed by anyone who would know.

It usually is. 

Can you point out some Christians, or even one for that matter, that are trump supporters? I'd be interested in seeing who they are. Thanks!

The road to the white house is now painted with 'Black lives matter '

I think that's pretty fucking brave of the mayor knowing what a vengeful sack of shit Trump is but of course, far left ideology isn't satisfied.

"This is a performative distraction from real policy changes. Bowser has consistently been on the wrong side of BLMDC history. This is to appease white liberals while ignoring our demands. Black Lives Matter means defund the police. @emilymbadger say it with us," the account tweeted.

They're right in that there's a lot more that needs to be done but do they really need to shit on everything?

Yeah, I'm white and not a fan of the politically pure "cancel culture" far left so I guess my opinion doesn't count but still... fuck them with a chainsaw.
