BLM is hands down winning the quest for allies over the white supremacists. That doesn't happen unless the movement is fundamentally non-violent, and its ends seen as legitimate. It scares the crap out of you that they might actually get somewhere, which is why you're desperate to exaggerate any problem at any protest.
Put another way, people of all races including many whites march in the BLM movement. Only whites back their supremacy movement.Last edited by togor; 08-03-2020, 08:47.Comment

Only because the national news media bend over backwards to exclude from their coverage anything remotely detrimental to all the leftest causes they promote, & consistently LIE about the true nature of BLM by calling riots "peaceful protests".Comment

Well since the BLM came into being, there has been nothing but turmoil, unrest, burning and rioting in the country with BLM written all over it and on damaged buildings. And you call that winning...
I say again..wait until the colleges reopen and you will see a reduction in the marches by the never had a full time job, brain washed students, who never paid taxes yet. What was so bad about the country before that, which couldn't have been righted by peaceful methods and not by such destruction and turmoil?. But of course it's the communist's way..Comment

The thing is Ray, if there is a major social reform that is related to the protests, that you would be willing to support, you haven't said what it is. So consequently I conclude that there's nothing in the protests that you support. So....what you really want are quiet protests that you can ignore, and which don't inconvenience you in any way, and don't cause any level of government to consider changing the status quo.
But have you been inconvenienced by any protest? Or are you just going out on the web and finding stuff that upsets you?Comment

I support law and order in the county which is something that the protesters do not believe in..And apparently neither do you...As you side with the protesters all the time....The thing is Ray, if there is a major social reform that is related to the protests, that you would be willing to support, you haven't said what it is.

Do you support sheriffs refusing to enforce mask requirements? Is that Law & Order or freedom?
If enough people feel passionate about something, then the protests are going to get LOUD. There have been other times in American history where there were massive protests. Pick one that you think was wrong and please share why.Last edited by togor; 08-03-2020, 01:30.Comment

Your choice. Our history is that the big movements, like this one, have something to them. This is why you don't see me insisting that they shut it down.
To be honest I think I see cracks in your law and order facade. For example those sheriffs who refuse to enforce mask orders that are lawfully issued by the chief executive of the state, under emergency powers granted him/her in the state's laws.
Or...Bob Mueller, as straight an arrow as there is by all accounts, being slandered by politicians and sycophants with something to hide. And at Ruby Ridge, if the Weavers just did what the cops told them, just followed instructions of law enforcement, then nobody would have gotten hurt.Comment

The anti-Vietnam War protests were as loud as they were stupid, but nothing to match the mindless destructiveness of BLM. Can you believe cops at that time would NOT stand by watch to watch public property vandalized or destroyed?Comment

Your memory sucks.
Chicago DNC '68, and Kent State '70 were just two of many flash points in the Vietnam protests era, and they're two years apart. There were bombings, occupations, marches on DC. By contrast George Floyd died barely two months ago. Seattle and Portland have been a bit more persistent, but that's more to the character of the cities (think Seattle WTO 1999). Heavy handed Feds only make it worse.
It's gonna be like this until Covid is behind us. That's obvious to anyone who isn't consumed by race hatred and a terror that the protestors might actually get a point across to a sympathetic public.
Stuff can be repaired more easily than the dead brought back to life.Comment

It's yours that sucks. A riot that police are unable to control because they are too outnumbered or outgunned is radically different from one they deliberately ALLOW to continue without opposition because their political bosses are in league with the rioters!
The only "point" this violent rabble has made is that the laws that are supposed to apply to all don't apply to them because their race has been granted special privileges in Dem controlled cities. Whites who see this & think it's OK to do the same thing, like those anti-abortion protestors in the District of Color, quickly find out they were badly mistaken.Comment
