I sure these "protesters" will have their defenders too. Because, you know,...
Honestly, Neo, if BLM spray painted that shit on your face while you were sleeping..I;d be on their side, not yours.
So, spray painting statues is the same as spray painting someones face? Sounds alot like you did when you were claiming adultery is the same as slavery.
So, let me understand something here: Every week or so, I hear a new story about black people being killed by police. Usually it's an unarmed person and the cop thought they had a gun and the cop gets away with it. Courts rarely bring charges. It's become so damn common that I can't even keep track of all those situations anymore. So, what's to be done about it? How can they protest? So far, any attempts to protest have been dismissed or told that they're too hostile. Even reasonable protests, like those of Colin Kaepernick, are met with hostility and hate. How would you suggest black activists act on their first amendment right to speak up and say this is wrong?
Why do I mention those issues? Because, to quote MLK, a riot is the voice of the unheard. If you don't want violence, try listening to them. If you want more violence, murder someone by hitting them with your car while your side tries to take the moral high ground.
