What an interesting mix between alt-right libertarian, anarchist, and academic justifying violent revolution. Throw a couple conspiracy theories into the mix.
FBI investigating death of suspect after Minneapolis police officer put knee on neck

French Revolution, China Revolution, Iranian Revolution, etc. The only successful revolution, wait for it, the American Revolution. What China is to-day could have been accomplished through evolution without all the deaths.
The French Revolution is beyond the scope of this thread suffice to say for now: The Reign of Terror, Napoleon and 20 years of war, etc.I would be happy to discuss the subject with you or anyone else in a separate thread.

I was watching CNN and some folks were saying that peaceful protest isn't working. Is anyone saying that blacks are not much better off now than they were in the 1960's? What is the alternative to peaceful protest? Armed insurrection?
The French Revolution was in the end known for its violent excesses and it's extraordinary zeal for idealistic (and psycho I might add) purity. Napoleon a military man established order and eventually himself as Emperor. He was deposed after reckless expansionary ambitions. The French monarchy was re-established.
Oh as far as executing the King and Queen and some nobility, it was a rousing success.
Explain. How do you know what I know and feel in this regard. I haven't told you.

What a way to go though. Feed people for free and they end up killing you by wildly firing into a crowd. They literally bit the hand that fed them.
RIP dude. Snuffed out int he same city as Breonna Taylor who got gunned down while in her own bed because they had the wrong house.
Damn

I hope she's safe and they don't corner her back at the base, and do unspeakable things to her. These juiced up, roid rage dudes will need a tool aside from the one they were born with. Maybe some Abner Louima treatment?
Stay safe, queen.

Let's not jump on this story just yet. The Louisville police claim to have released security videos showing McAtee firing at police.
A few Atlanta officers are seeking new employment where they can crack some more heads after being fired and charged

Videos are known but the story isn't done yet. They won't answer whether a gun was involved or not. They are on a let's wait and see. Either you have the gun or not.
That Breonna Taylor mess is still lingering so who knows what they're doing.
If they're not claustrophobic they can work in the White House basement, helping to protect #BunkerBitch.
Your post said it. Or you can correct me. Do you realize the leadership of both parties have no interest in changing things?
Yeah sure. MLK protested peacefully and had a huge impact, is still talked about and respected by all races. He didn't loot and steal and cause riots.
All these protests are not going to change the few that are racist. The people who are actually racist won't have their minds changed by riots and looters, it will probably make them even more racist.
Now in terms of what happened to George Floyd, everyone on all sides of the political spectrum agree the officers involved should be arrested and charged. There is literally no one who disagrees on this.
Virtue signalling on instagram with black squares and looting isn't going to change anything.
Oh, the amazing opportunities that exist for black children from their grammar school days throughout their careers. It's astounding how much of American life is dedicated to how do we create opportunities for African-Americans. Are there African-American we can admit and provide scholarships? How do we hire African-Americans? How do we promote African-Americans? How do we buy more from African-Americans?
I don't think Canadians understand how solely focusing on economic outcomes gives you a shallow perspective on the issue of race in America.
Sure and taking out the King wasn't such a bad goal, but in the end revolutions tend to eat their own. The American Revolution wasn't much of a revolution as far as revolutions go. It did throw-off the British monarchy, but it was more of a popular separatist movement clearly demarcated by geography.
Ding-ding-ding! If the Dems focused on class, we would have more clean and healthy political dialogue. I have no idea how Trump moved enough working class into his column.
For some reason, the Democratic party has been taken over by elements of the radical left with a desire to build the party around identity politics. It greatly confuses the politics in our country. Since I don't support many of the Dems ideals, I guess I am a racist. Oh well.
Since Butler1000 is here, I will say Bernie was always a class warfare guy until he realized the party had become focused on identity politics.
