Does not contradict jimbob45's point that "BLM [...] incited a great deal of violence this summer"
Going by the numbers in your URL, 7750 demonstations of which 7% violent = 542 violent demonstrations.
- mrtesthah 6y agoHe said “they certainly incited a great deal of violence this summer.” I qualified that statement, which was worded to imply substantially more violence than what actually occurred. I thought HN discussions were based on facts rather than political biases.
- PontifexMinimus 6y ago> I thought HN discussions were based on facts rather than political biases. I very much hope they are.
