    I don't watch fox, or any other news channel but thanks. Wait I think I found what you're looking for;

    https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf...vAhVHZM0KHSPFC8IQzmd6BAgLEAs&biw=1366&bih=625

    "However, the violence by early June 2020 had resulted in two deaths, 604 arrests, and upwards of $500 million in property damage to 1,500 locations, making it the second-most destructive period of local unrest in United States history, after the 1992 Los Angeles riots."

    Unproductive and racist people out destroying property and causing huge problems. Uh oh...

    I wonder who is paying for their illegal and unethical antics?

    Ok I don't see how that makes up for up to 1-2 billion in damage. I don't see how acting like a bunch of nutbags is even remotely acceptable. If 7% of all police officers acted like that, people would lose their f***** minds.

    Nice of you to leave out Antifa, a left wing group. Why do you protect them?

    Black people are already free so what liberation do they need?

    WTF? How is it false when they literally teach people cops are bad? Go educate yourself. Cops has even died at BLM rallies before because of people who were taught by BLM to hate cops.

    The organization would not exist without cops.

    How are they peacefull? 6 cops died in 2006 in Dallas, Texas by a BLM sniper and you say they are peacefull? People died over the summer riots including cops.

    Left Wing Narrative talking points is all you have.

    Now that I read the entire thing I can say you are wrong. The majority of people killed by cops are white. Families don't fear the police. Black people who are brainwashed by the Democrats do.

    I was pulled over with a Cambodian friend who is dark skinned once. He had a gun on him and had been drinking some. We did everything the cops told us to do and they even knew he had a gun. We had no problems and were let go. I did not fear the police. I don't live in fear.
    I'm not a slave to the news or party politics.

    White lives should matter. So should blue lives. Anymore the Democrats just cares about the lives that keep them in power and the black people supporting BLM have become the very thing they accuse white people of. Hatefull racist bigots or brainwashed lefties.

    I think people can't stand BLM for the riots they inspire, just like people cant stand Trumpsters for the riots they inspire. Everyone is sick of destruction and chaos in the name of some cause that just rips us apart as a nation. Say what you have to say peacefully, without destroying, without rioting, and I think a lot less people will be annoyed. Even if 90% is peaceful, it only takes the 10% to turn public opinion against a movement. I think both camps are dumb myself. It is the destructive extremists at both ends of the spectrum that are wrecking things for everyone else.

    Bear in mind that among that 7% were Antifa, counter protesters and over and/or inappropriate response by law enforcement. 15 to 26 million marchers over 2000 national localities and a global response to
    Sorry, Charlie, 93 % of marches were peaceful and non violent. In the other 7% there were other factors/players involved This was a global phenomenon involving 15 to 26million marchers.

    Black men were killed by police at the rate of 2.1 per 100,000, Latinos at 1 0 per 100,000 and whites at .6 per 100,000. You were lucky.

    This was not an isolated happening. This was global in scope and involved 15 to 25 million marchers in over 2000 locations nationally. 93% of all American demonstrations were peaceful and non violent.

    I've got nothing against BLM's adherents, they are entitled to their opinion - however, their views are not backed by the evidence.

    BLM is demonstrably a racist organization: they only protest / riot when black people are killed by police. When white people, like Daniel Shaver, David Begnaud, or Tony Timpa, get killled by police, where is BLM protesting / rioting?

    Daniel Shaver


    David Begnaud


    Tony Timpa


    BLM was silent for all the aforementioned cases, and all the rest.

    You still dodged the question and deflected.

    You only listed groups that fit your agenda proving your bias.

    The summer riots were Antifa/Black Lives Matter and you left them out on purpose.

    Backed by numbers, statistics. Incontravertible
    This might help your understanding. .6per 100,000 whites killid by police. 1 per 100,000 latinos killed by police. 2.1 per 100,000 blacks killed by police. And blacks are only what, 12%, 14% of total population? Hell, no wonder they march in protest. The only question in my mind is what took them so long?

    Trumpers cause riots? The capitol riot was not really a riot and I don't know of any other riot they caused. Proud boys mostly spared with Antifa.

    What evidence do you have that Republicans incite violence on a wide spread level?

    To compare Republicans to Antifa/BLM is a very big stretch. I don't even think you could stretch it that far.

    Speaking of deflection, where are the threads on the latest Capitol Hill attack? For some reason, can't put my finger on it, the Democrats on this forum are not being as prolific as there were with the other one. Wonder why?
