And BLM rioters didn't also attack police? Give me a break. Both extreme sides need to be dealt with.

  Do BLM protesters openly carry rifles and shotguns like the Black Panthers used to? Do they actually fire on police? I doubt it, and unless you can provide footage from the Associated Press or Agence France-Presse I don't think there's any evidence you could provide that might convince me otherwise.

    LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Hundreds of armed, predominantly Black, activists demanded justice for Breonna Taylor... Enjoy the photos. Took all of one google search. https://www.tampabay.com/news/nation-world/2020/07/25/breonna-taylor-protest-brings-black-white-militias-to-louisville/ https://www.tampabay.com/news/nation-world/2020/07/25/breonn...

      No police wounded or even fired upon. Only three white militia members got hurt, and their lives don't matter to me.

    If it’s dead cops you want google 2016 Dallas BLM ambush. 5 dead, 12 wounded enough? https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/09/us/dallas-police-shooting.html https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/09/us/dallas-police-shooting...

      > If it’s dead cops you want google 2016 Dallas BLM ambush. That's not how this works. If you want to persuade me, it's up to you to provide evidence. Telling me to google something doesn't count. Now, fuck off back to 4chan. You haven't engaged with anybody but me since you created your account, and I don't find your singular focus especially flattering.

  >whatabout BLM So then you agree that the Republican insurrectionists invading and looting the nations capitol this week were bad?
  • burtcooper 6y ago
    Every bit as disgusting as the nationwide BLM rioting, looting and arson. Anyone who disagrees is a hypocrite.

      I’m not the user you’re replying to here, but I apologize for making unconstructive comments earlier in the thread instead of flagging. Thanks for all the work you do to moderate this community.
