Yeah am actully suprised that I have not got any hate yet.
You've received no hate because we're able to understand each other and have person to person conversations. A discussion won't provoke hate in most cases.

I ( sort of ) disagree with blm

This isnt no where near the right time to go out and protest, the country has its hands full right now. We are dealing with the corona virus which has killed hundreds of thousands of people and affected tens of millions of live. We can not add another problem to the list at least not yet. Lets finish with our current problems and than deal with the next. If this has happened a year from now the movement would be significantly larger and have the full attention of the world. Yes the blm has a small affect in the world but not enough. In addition to that, we have a dumbass , racist ass , stupid ass president. In a year from now, we may have a president who is less stupid and racist who can face this issue and not ignore it. In a year from now the corona virus might be a smaller issue and the president would have to face it head on or he will get absolutely shit on by the media, our current president is hiding behind the corona virus for his reasoning not to do something about the blm.
Trump is none of that, Trump 2020. Better then someone who touches kids, aka Joe Biden. gl dems

Violence is not what the protest is about, its about change.
The people who are using a movement to campaign for change to benefit from honestly disgust me.

Lootings, come on people - we can do better than that.
As loads of people in this thread mentioned - its gone too far, i'm all for the protesting - but when shit gets violent - thats when its extreme.

A protest for change should not involve violence.

Trump disgusts me. That bitch hasnt done shit for the country , we need change and that starts with a new president. I agree biden isnt the best, but at least hes better than a president who doesnt know shit and doesnt do shit.
I suggest looking into his term and seeing what he has done before blindly commenting.

I know the point of this thread is not Trump's politics, but I feel as if it's always nice to inform those who are not aware of Trump's achievements.

  • ~4,000,000 jobs created (as a result of Trump import/export tarrifs causing plant relocations to the U.S)
  • Lowest unemployment in recorded history for the United States of America.
  • Highest median-household income.
  • Lowest African-American unemployment rate.
  • Lowest Hispanic-American unemployment rate.
  • Lowest Asian-American unemployment rate.
  • ~3,900,000 Americans off of food stamps.
  • 95% of American manufactures optimistic about the future (highest recorded).
  • Retail sales up 6% since last year.
  • $6,000,000,000 to fight the opioid crisis.
  • Increased coal export by 60%.
  • USMCA trade deal to restore 1.4 trillion in North American commerce.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/trump-administration-accomplishments/ - From 2018, and I've seen arguments that the list is biased, but a simple Google search of any bullet point will prove to show true.

And for 2019;
  • Defeated ISIS caliphate.
  • Space Force created.
  • Tax cut reform.
  • Increased natural gas export by 60% (Highest since Eisenhower presidency)

Black Lives Matter was created by white democrats in order to empower black individuals. The moment a black person sides with a conservative or simply doesn’t vote Democrat their life is meaningless to the left.

Also love how saying all lives matter is considered racist by these troglodytes.

Nobody who's worth thinking about believes black lives don't matter, and I don't think anyone who really understands the problem thinks there is no discrepancy between the treatment of black and white Americans by the police and criminal justice system.

I think the more interesting issue here is the police issue.

Recall Hong Kong, 2019. Mainland Chinese Military Police Forces entered sovereign Hong Kong to control protests. They sprayed dyed pepper spray and water to mark anyone seen protesting. Officers without identification arrested any protesters they could, took IDs, then moved them off to unknown detention centers. The Hong Kong Government pushed back against the mainland police taking control, but were unable to take any meaningful action to stop the takeover and now the supposedly sovereign region is more or less under direct control of mainland China.

Now look at Portland right now, nondescript federal officers have been roaming the streets arresting protesters silently and taking them to god knows where in unmarked vehicles. They've used dyed pepper spray to mark protestors. Portland's mayor joined the protestors and detests the federal officers who are now policing the protest.

The parallel's between the US' response to the protest and China's is Orwellian.

Perhaps the police are right to try and stop protestors from damaging federal property, but to align your methods with that of the CCP? How can you align yourself with China and claim to be the protectors of the free world. Something has to give.
