Second. How come BLM only shows up when a black person is killed by a white cop. Nevermind what happens in the big cities everyday.

Third how come the only time Antifa is mentioned is when they see a chance to break stuff.

Just my opinion and what I hear.

Because all to often in this country the police behave as if Black lives do not matter. If they did matter maybe they wouldn't be treated as an enemy and an automatic threat. It was blatantly obvious that to Derek Chauvin that George Floy's life did not matter.

The righties are the ones always crying ANTIFA!

My point is they destroyed some private citizens car with no thought of the respect of other people and others property. I mean come on, they don't know who it belongs to and DON'T FUCKING CARE!!! Let alone the buildings they were throwing bricks at. Then the small child has to come out and see it. IT IS 100% DISGUSTING. not to mention the many videos I could find to support this.

The big thing to me is how you titled the thread. You did not refer to a random group of teenagers letting loose. You referred to BLM and ANTIFA, of which you obviously know little that is true and much that is false. You referred to them with nothing to back it up except your own opinion, which is so off here I have to call it delusion.

You are cued by the title to react as if evil people were targeting an innocent little girl, and you did, even though that was not the case. You strike me as very willing to be led around by propaganda.

I understand that you are disgusted. These are times of change, and some disorder. It is bad that a random guys BMW was damaged. I agree with that.

Will you agree that a random black guy, who was on the autistic spectrum and who's social reactions were a little 'different,' DYING at the hands of police and medics when he had done nothing wrong whatsoever, was worse than a damaged car? The death of Elijah McClain disgusts me, and angers me, and makes be grievously sad.

On the BLM question, how come the fire department only shows up when something is on fire?

Black on black crime is alluded to by you "only when a black man is killed by a white cop." It's wrong, cops of any race who do killings are protested. But here's the thing: if a black citizen kills a black citizen, it's recognized as a homicide, it's investigated as such, if a perpetrator is identified and captured, he is prosecuted and is reliably convicted and imprisoned.

Now if a cop kills a black man, until recently, NOTHING HAPPENS. Exceptions exist, but they were damn scarce, until the age of citizen video arrived. Note now the case of Breonna Taylor. Nothing happening.

That 'nothing happens' is why BLM exists. Derek Chauvin's belief that he could kill George Floyd with impunity was based on a lot of reality.

PS: On ANTIFA, I know of no reliable information that ANTIFA is breaking one damn thing. It's only mentioned as you say because the only people mentioning them are right wing liars.

Personally, I don't see them as the same. Rather, I see them as two sides of the same coin. Their methods are similar. Their trip wire's are similar. Their age distribution seems to be the same. The political party to which they adhere seems to be the same.

So yeah. They are different in the same way a Firebird and a Camaro are different. Except one has power windows and air conditioning.

I have no reason to think one word of it is true. He gives no reasons, he just says "this is how it was explained to me." doesn't even say who did the explaining.

Oh by the way, he's pretty much backtracked on the whole thing....

From your URL:

in 1952 Byrd avowed that “After about a year, I became disinterested [in the KKK], quit paying my dues, and dropped my membership in the organization,” and throughout his long political career (he served for 57 years in the United States Congress) he repeatedly apologized for his involvement with the KKK:

You are a seriously ignorant putz.

His involvement was brief and minimal, probably related to seeking office or other 'networking.' Still, there are of course racists in the Democratic Party. There are racists everywhere. The record of the party in modern times is still light years ahead of the opposition, who have and continue to directly pander to overt racism.

Nope I'm not. I don't know how you can't see the hiprocasy. Could you imagine the backlash if a conservative had said the same thing?
