Peaceful Protests

I'm sure that if you were born in an area with endemic poverty, had parents who had to work multiple jobs and were hardly at home, needed to get your own jobs during school to help the family pay the bills while also helping care for younger children, went to massively underfunded schools where they struggled to keep teachers, and faced systematic discrimination based on your skin colour, you would find it easy to escape poverty.

And sorry to burst your racialized bubble but poor whites have many of the same barriers keeping them from escaping poverty. Only difference is Bubba Rae from West Virginia can put on a suit and tie, speak like he was from New York and fake his way around it.
You're pretty much describing my dad in the first paragraph (but he is of Irish descent). He's done very well for himself. As have thousands of others who've had to fight for everything they've earned. But we'll keep making excuses, and more excuses (that never ends well by the way).

I agree with you especially your point about blacks killing each other. No one wants to talk about it. It's taboo because it kills all their other arguments. They won't even report crimes because snitching is a sin in the community. Go figure. Other races and ethnic groups have faced discrimination but have risen above it. How about starting businesses in the community like other have. The Koreans, Chinese and Italians came with nothing and started their own businesses and became successful.

Anti-Black racism is worse, the vestiges of slavery and segregation are worse than what other groups have had to suffer.
 

Clearly only someone interested in human rights would post statements by Barr.
Just because 80% of Americans think the US is going in the wrong reason obviously is no reason not to push the narrative of those 20% who are happy watching Barr and Trump's goons attack Americans.
 
The police certainly have a right to defend themselves and they also have have a LEGAL mandate to disperse a violent and destructive crowd.

Then why are you defending them using violence on the ones who aren't being violent? You should be furious about that.

Do you ever get anything right?

If you are against violence you should be against this one,
 
Those aren't the only people police are attacking.

And there you have it, Loonie left logic at its worst
Despite video which clearly shows the police in Chicago being attacked, you say its the police doing the attacking

The police stayed behind the barricade and were attacked with frozen water bottles, sharpened PVC pipe and fireworks mortars.
And you claim the police are the aggressors?

So do we just assume everything you post is disingenuous?
There is not much of a rational reason to read what you post now is there?

If you talk to your dad you will also likely hear about lots of people who did not become successful. My Irish ancestors were able to fake an English accent and moved to a new town. Sort of hard to fake skin colour. It is also a very different world now. Pretty damn hard for a kid to earn a scholarship when you have to work 40 hours to support your family and are taught with whoever your town was able to convince to teach for $30,000 a year.

Some poor black people grow up to be wealthy but most don't. If you believe that is because of 'black' culture, then you have some very serious issues to work out.
 
No you missed the point
...
As usual you just ignore facts you don't like.

You might want to pretend Portland became some kind of Mad Max Thunderdome crossed with the beach landing from Saving Private Ryan but that's not reality

I don't know what you want LaRue.
You keep saying these protests are all about the police being attacked. This is false. I am not arguing the police can't defend themselves when attacked. I am pointing out that the police have not been doing that. That's just a fact. They have been using disproportionate force and illegal tactics. That they have also occasionally gotten push back from people and that some people have decided to attack first is also true. But that doesn't make the protests violent. That just means there has been violence at the protests.

You seem to mistake nuance as disengeniousness.

But maybe I am being unfair.

Try stating your position clearly.

1) when is police violence appropriate?
2) what level of police violence is appropriate?
3) when is police violence inappropriate?

We can start from there. Maybe we don't actually disagree much at all.

Democrats will still tell you these are peaceful protests and isolated incidents.They think you are stupid and will believe every delusion in their hear because orange man is bad and gives them justification.

These posts are fucking awesome.
I love seeing you digging further and further against the protests against systematic racism and police brutality.

You wanna know why?
'Cuz its the death knell of Trump and Trumpism.

As soon as the protests hit and Trump doubled down, like you're doing, Trump's chances at re-election without massive voter fraud died a sickly death.
And every time you and him double down it just makes that hole so much deeper.

So please, keep posting us your random twitter shit.
And don't forget when Trump is backing you up.

Trump said police officers would be 'protected' to 'fight back' against protesters in confrontations
 
People are not stupid. They are seeing all the daily violence, crimes, destruction, racism , bigotry, intolerance and suffering being committed in the name of systematic racism, oppression and social justice. Then they blame it on trump and say that’s their justification because orange man is bad, he is a racist bunker bitch white supremacy and in their BOT 🤖 mind this makes it perfectly legit and okay.

The good news about the "peaceful protests" in Portland is that they're not spreading. Portland is a lib-left pocket with a cowardly, weak-ass mayor who's afraid to do anything against the mob. In the South, there are plenty of well-armed white folks with a long tradition of taking the law into their own hands, who will not hesitate to take on BLM. I can now see why the Founding Fathers included the Second Amendment, something you can't find in other countries.

Keep it up, I think you've almost convinced all of us left wingers.
But give it a bit more anger and more twitter videos.

Calling us bots really almost convinced me, I think you need stronger language.
