I agree that there is a clear danger to society, and to Black folks in particular when cops feel threatened or on edge. I guess the reality is for me, the implication of this statement “sure did lead to even more black people getting murdered by cops” is pretty clear, and if it’s not something that has actually…

I am familiar with that tragedy. I am asking about where you got the information that informed the statement you made earlier, which is that BLM protests have resulted in more Black people being killed by cops. If what you meant to do was reference this individual incident, then I’ll retract my question. Simply wasn’t…

Did BLM protests lead to more Black people being killed by cops? Is this true? Where does this information come from?

Thank you. I needed to see that others were as critical of this piece. Conflating people who are forced to work outside the home with people who choose to eat out regularly, not wear masks in public, or travel for large holiday gatherings is just plain silly.

I think you’re confused. Neither of these were false flags. 

Ahh.  A fool. 

Given that it’s widely known and accepted that these ongoing protests are being driven by the extreme left, will you admit your fault? Denying their political adherence is just as silly as all the Trumpers acting like antifa was behind the Capitol riots. We know who these people are, they’ve made it very clear now and…

So you think this is a false flag? Highly unlikely. These protests are ongoing, nothing new. 

This isn’t a right wing riot. Unfortunately, it does play into the hands of right wing peddlers of misinformation. 

100%

Occam’s Razor dictates that the simplest explanation is the best — Simplest here is that the people are what they claim to be, not that the alt-right has infiltrated a months-long protest driven by extreme left, anarchist groups. These actions aren’t new, they are ongoing. Thus, it follows that the perpetrators are…

Ehh, humanity is violent. Whoever has power most of all.

By all means, feel free to keep your bullshit opinions to yourself from here on out. 

What’s amusing is that you seem to think I am defending the guy’s politics. I am not. Trump is a cancer. I fear, deeply, fascist infiltration within our security apparatus. However, your post lacks logical coherence and betrays your simple-minded, reductive thinking. This guy died doing the right thing, even if his…

Classy. 

So the cop was killed fighting an attempted coup and because he was a Trump supporter his life had no value? And I am guessing you think he supported the people who killed him?

If it was coordinated with the Capitol Police, then they did a very poor job because apparently half of them didn’t get the memo. They got Congress to safety, and the only people harmed were 50-some cops and one of the terrorists.

In what way has it succeeded? Unless you know something about what’s coming, you’ve got to explain this statement.

DC police are only about 1/3 white, so I don’t know that the narrative that this was “white-on-white” holds any water. In fact, I know it doesn’t. The individual officers largely did the best they could. I am aware of some questionable videos, but I have seen large umbers of police being violently attacked and…

This is dope, groundbreaking, and overdue.
