    Worse yet for both the protestors and rioters; all of this was in motion BEFORE any of the protests and riots started; and the media outlets egging them on KNEW that the justice system was already in motion.

    That all black people are suffering from racism to the point that they have to constantly be worried about being unfairly killed by police, or unfairly harmed in some way be it emotionally, or physically by white people.

    Also, I read your OP and my posts stand. Perhaps it is YOU who needs to think about it. You can't get away with decades of all your anecdotes showing black people being victimized, when again....it happens more often in the reverse (IE blacks victimizing whites) and think that people aren't going to become emotional and violent just as soon as you have a catalyst like this officer murdering floyd.

    It feels like the outrage of the moment is defeating common sense in this country and thus everyone is being pulled down by emotionalism instead of facts.

    If you don't understand the purpose of the protests - if you think they are only about Floyd - then I can't help you. And likely, if I tried, you wouldn't believe me or understand.

    We live in an age of a willful lack of reason. Where despite the availability of statistics demonstrating where the real issues the black community faces are, people emotionally cling to the false narratives of racism being a prevalent force. Even some here are under the impression that statistics are not as important as anecdotes. With a political party that thrives on taking advantage of this ignorance and anger, and having a MSM serve that party so faithfully it doesn't seem to matter what the facts say...when you can just take an anecdote and run it 24/7...people lose their minds.

    But I stand by my stance that black people are waking up to the realities of the world around them, and in larger numbers seeing past the lies of the MSM and dems. It wont happen overnight as emotions are to high right now. But I believe in the next couple decades enough will realize this that it will no longer be beneficial for dems/MSM to lie about this.

    These aren't protests, they are riots.

    We know its not only about floyd, its about false narratives of racism being the controlling factor of black peoples lives.

    The rioters are just useful idiots to the left.

    Not only do I not know what news sources YOU use, but I have no idea who white people are that are getting beat up, or by who. But yes, white supremacists are not going to beat on whitey

    Which is how we know they're antifa and not white supremacists, because these rioters are equal opportunity enablers of mayhem and violence.

    So lost in that, is basically "nothing". And that's right. There is no justification, no greater crusade and no outcome. It's a mindless borg hive devouring itself, under the auspice of "justice" ROFL. Senseless, just like 6 years ago in Missouri.

    That characterizes each and every rioter and looter. Thank you for admitting, very progressive and patriotic of you.

    Sadly, you replied to the point I originally made. Now, I have no point. I couldn't have gotten better results if I'd paid you!

    You never made a point. I have no doubt you believe you did, but from an objective standpoint, you did not.

    then why would you reply (post #81)? Are you in the habit of replying to people who have made no point and just babbling? I'll assume you are still at home and not working...

    Hopefully they will never be able to vote after being convicted.

    Mainly from seeing their signs, symbols and graffiti on protest and riot live video feeds.

    Tell us how you "know" the false claims and slander against the right that you made in your opening post.

    You fool no one. Everyone knows that it's elements of the Left that are fire bombing, looting, assaulting and killing innocent people.

    These criminals on the Left have been trying to foment violent revolution for a half century, hoping they could use racial strife as a catalyst. Charles Manson's murders were in service of these wicked goals. .

    RECREATE ’68: How to destroy civilization — Thanks to tenured radicals, we are witnessing the retribalization of the world.

    ‘We must recognize that justice is a higher social goal than law and order.’ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to some eager CNN reporter? No, that was William Sloane Coffin, Jr., Chaplin of Yale University, in 1972.

    Remember Bobby Seale and the Black Panthers?

    Over the last few days, numerous policemen have been attacked, several have been killed, in the wave of domestic terrorism coruscating across the country. Seale would have been pleased. ‘If a pig comes up to us and starts swinging a billy club,’ he told a crowd, ‘you got to [shoot] that pig in defense of yourself! We’re gonna barbecue some pork!’ Tom Hayden, all admiration for Seale’s performance, told the crowd to ‘make sure that if blood is going to flow, it will flow all over the city.’

    This is where you were always going, this is what these lawless elements have always wanted, and hopefully the forces of law and order are going to identify the folks promoting, organizing, and funding this conspiracy of insurrection and we see folks doing 25 year sentences for the mayhem they have crapped all over our cities.

    These tenured radicals do not reproduce like we do, by forming families and dedicating our lives to their advancement, no, they appropriate our children through academic indoctrination, funded by us.

    And when we have finally had enough, and cut off the destructive funding that trains and indoctrinates our young into the goal of violent insurrection, we will be accused of being "anti-intellectual".

    That does not answer my question nor does it make much sense. What evidence do you have that ANTIFA was causing trouble. The FBI says that they were not:

    But it does not describe the peaceful protesters who you seem to want to deny exist.
