I’d like to think Floyd’s death would kick Amy out of VP contention, but Biden is tone deaf enough on race that it probably won’t matter.

Ehhh. There have been plenty of protestors and activists who have been harassed, arrested, and/or murdered.

“Give me one example, please!”
*Receives several examples*
“LOL NOT THOSE THO!”

How hilariously pedantic to claim that the founding of our country technically doesn’t have anything to do with our country because it happened before the papers were signed. 

This entire country was founded on violence where’s the evidence that non violence gets these thugs to stop stealing land, enslaving people, and respecting their right to live in fucking peace?

I think you’ll find technically your whole damn country is founded on a violent protest, and without it you’d be singing “god save the queen” before big sporting events.

I’m all for the chain stores getting it, but this is not otherwise a rich neighborhood. I wish the police union head was breathing in smoke and tear gas instead of me.

I answer your question with a question: when, at any point in history, did a group of historically disenfranchised people ever gain rights, equality, legal recognition, etc. by asking politely?

A riot is the language of the unheard. But yea lets all spill some tears for capitalism and those shitty-ass fully insured chain stores instead of the continuous injustice of police brutality.

Martin Luther King, Jr., spent years calling for equality, advocating for change through non-violence. Those non-violent protests frequently resulted in white reactions of violence against the protestors, and King found himself widely disliked by whites, including liberal whites, and targeted by the FBI, until finally…

Yeah, about that “random Target”:

We’ve tried being peaceful and what has it gotten us? When polite and persistent requests go ignored this is what happens. This ain’t a riot, it’s a revolution. 

My 8 year old son looks up to you

The world would be a better place if every parent taught their children the phrases “fuck racists” and “fuck the police” from an early age. I support Boyega bringing that to the house of mouse, and fans as young as 4. 

TIL being anti-racism is a controversial position, and some people hate profanity more than racism. Love America!

Rahm Emmanuel is capable of many things: being a melodramatic asshole to disguise his incompetence; having low self-esteem and anxiety over his height; spewing profanities to get attention; cover up of police violence; threatening to withhold funding from black communities if they protest him; and general, all around…

For the moment, I’m going to assume you’re not deliberately concern trolling. But regardless, you’re misconstruing what “believe women” actually means. “Believe Women” is not a blanket statement. It’s a shorthand that we use because the more accurate statement “afford a woman reporting an assault the same benefit of…

This comment took an interesting left turn. From “Be wary of white women falsely accusing black men of crimes” to “Let’s not investigate a white woman accusing a white man of something that he has already been known due to do and of something for which she has some corroborating evidence even though a failure to…

Churchill was a fucking ghoul whose racism and imperialism gets entirely glossed over by most Americans. This was probably not the comparison you wanted to make. Or, maybe it was?
