    Loud white woman shouts down a black man. Apparently she didn't approve of the way he wanted to protest.

    "We are self-reflexive and do the work required to dismantle cisgender privilege and uplift Black trans folk, especially Black trans women who continue to be disproportionately impacted by trans-antagonistic violence."

    Cisgender privilege is high school girls, real biologically born girls, thinking they should compete in athletics with the same. So I'm assuming you think biological boys who fluidly decide they are female can compete against them even if it sets the real girls at a disadvantage? The "average joe" is going to think hurting girls like that is simply cold and wrong.

    "We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable."

    In other words, fathers arent important in the home. Crazy talk from a group that ignores the plight of 80+ percent of black children, especially boys that live without the the guidance of a father and turn to gangs instead. BLM cares not a bit about the well being of blacks. They care more about destroying the nuclear family structure of all races so that things will be equally bad across America.

    The man hate is abnormal. Most Americans realize that.

    This organization is truly warped .

    Around 11PM last night, a group of protesters split off and blocked a portion of I-35, stopping traffic.

    A black man got out of his truck, approached the (mostly white) protesters, and said he "appreciated it" then said, "but I gotta' go to work. I'm black. I gotta' go to work. I've got bills. I've got bills. Get the f*** out of my way! I've got a very good job. I've gotta go to work!"

    Let let him through as one of the protesters yelled at him "You're oppressed!!!!"

    (Can't find the video clip on YouTube.)

    It's a good thing those privileged and enlightened white riot rats are there to do the thinking for that poor, dumb black man.

    If it wasn't for them, the black guy would have no idea how bad he's got it.

    Odd, isn't it? This is the surreal version of the 60's Civil Rights movement. White people have mostly taken over BLM, because apparently, they think they can "do protests" better. I keep seeing clips of white liberals screaming a black people.

    I watched this interview yesterday of a Portland black police officer and his take on the Portland protests riots. He says the police academy has a higher percentage of blacks than the crowd of protesters (who are not even residents of Portland). Any time a minority came up to the fence wanting to have a sincere conversation with him about George Floyd, some white person would run up, interrupt the conversation saying, "F- the police. Don't talk to him!"

    Black people are leaving the protests. They've become about something else.

    There have been BLM protests in every city for two months. I've been more interested in the Foster shooting and Austin protests...just because I live here.

    According to a Biden commercial the riots are about Trump's divisiveness, probably why the DNC supports BLM, and it's painted out in front of his tower; it has nothing to do with a cop and his bad knee, which could have happened under Hillary too.

    Back in the 70's I was walking around Seattle after the ship got back, unaware of any news, and I heard a thunderous noise and hundreds of people ran around a corner carrying Soviet flags, they are probably the parents of this generation up there. Not many blacks up there, especially back then; we probably had more blacks on our ship than they had in the entire city. One blonde tried to get me to join her commie cult, with all kinds of promises, but wouldn't give me a sample first.

    I'm sure some blacks know they are being used.

    All lives don't matter, until the DNC/BLM Party matters, is about as divisive as it gets.

    So you said before, "Really isn't centered around black lives...more focused on transgender, LGBT activism and man hate."

    Are you saying Blacks can't be gay, can't feel transgendered? Or are you saying they shouldn't focus on gay and transgender Blacks? What is it about their support for Black LGBT that bothers you? Why does it bother you that they want to work together as a community to help families? I didn't see anything about fathers. Fair enough, it mentions something about a patriarchal practice, but it's in regards to mothers working multiple jobs. That doesn't sound like they want to get rid of fathers.

    Okay. They support increasing funding to create better educational, cultural, athletic, etc. programs in Black communities, but you think they don't care about Black kids?

    And what do you care about how someone else wants to raise their own family?

    Not only the city police showed up in full force, but backup came in from the Sheriffs, Texas DPS and the State National Guard. Austin is the state capitol, so legally the state-level officers could be called in to protect the many state buildings downtown.

    All the law enforcement looked to me like a great counter-protest saying, exactly, "Don't Mess With Texas!" It was kind of like a parade of officers (and no one got hurt). :)

    If Democrats ever win the governorship of the state, we'll be toast like Seattle or Portland in a few years, but as long as the governor is "Red", there's not going to be any of these violent riots and mass-destruction going on here.

    Proof positive that the riot rats can only take as much as their politicians give them, and they can only do as much damage and destruction as the same politicians allow them to do.

    ALL of these cities have the tools to stop civil unrest in its tracks, the only variable in the state and local politician's will to stand up to the riot rats, and use those tools.

    BLM wants to destroy the nuclear family...even though it's already destroyed for Blacks. The only communities with nuclear family majority are white.

    If Black Lives really mattered to BLM, then they would advocate for strong black families with committed fathers and mothers raising their kids.

    But their goal is to disintegrate the nuclear family within whites. Whites are doing better across the board because the nuclear family model gives advantages to the children within it. Destroy that and you have equality. Its sick

    And yet....

    Leave it to a 100% Liberal and Socialist city council and mayor to break something which is working really well. Their motto must be, "If it's not broken yet, then we must break it."

    Protesters were unhappy that the council didn't do enough damage to police funding.

    The theory is correct, but facts are wrong. Marxists do need to annihilate the family to be successful. However, whites are not far behind blacks in high divorce rates and single parent households, and recently, a growing trend in having children out of wedlock. Not as bad as not knowing who your father is, but whites are still deteriorating from not having a mom and dad under the same roof through the kids' childhood. Asians and Hispanics currently lead in preserving a culture of strong marriage and family values.

    We have a Kent State and the Left will blow every other discussion between now and the election completely out. We will see nothing but the bleeding dead bodies and the Fake News folks trying to tie it to Trump. The combination of Discipline, Order, Self-Restraint, Lawfulness and Standing their Ground of these fine Police Officers stands in sharp contrast with the mobs trying to provoke them into over reaction.
