Black Lives Matter—Do You Agree With Their Philosophy?

i agree with people who say all lives matter.

i think blm is a racist group.

if white people pushed an agenda saying white lives matter, some people would have a conniption..

How are the KKK and Nazis racist but BLM/Antifa - which has the same goals but for a different skin color - is not? BLM/Antifa is about to be considered a terrorist group for their actions. BLM/Antifa's goals are exactly the same as any other fascist group from the past.

How is their phraseology: If You’re White, Pass The Mic or Blacks to the Center, Whites to the Outside not considered outright racism and segregationist? Those are official BLM/Antifa slogans uttered by official BLM/Antifa leaders during official BLM/Antifa rallies they will defend as not racist. There are videos of them forcing white people to kneel before them and ask for forgiveness - official BLM/Antifa rallies. A few years ago they segregated an entire University and kicked out all whites, Hispanics and Asians for a full day to celebrate black history.

Once you start separating yourself as superior or more worthy or more necessary of legal and societal protections, you're by definition a racist or segregationist.

If black lives matter over anything, why did BLM protesters kill a black retired police officer? 7 black people have been killed by the BLM protestors thus far, why do their lives not matter?

I am starting to think there is more to these riots than just some meets the eye.

by phoenixrising in

the fake news wants us to believe that one cop who murdered one person sparked all this.

i am seeing this crap in london and around the world.

this does not make any sense.

Obama yesterday said that "direct action and civil disobedience" is necessary when he was talking about participating in the political process, he basically said, yeah you can vote, but to make a change, you'll need to be violent too to get your way.

If you ever wondered what side he is on. The Biden/Michelle Obama presidency: throw a hissy fit if you don't get your way.

What's the difference? Million? Billion? Trillion? For the curious among us ...

what's the difference?

a millionaire, a billionaire, and a trillionaire recognize each other outside an attorney’s office.

chat reveals each of them just signed off on their last will and testament.millionaire: “i feel really good about what i did here today.

If you're a working stiff making $15/h at the end of your career, you're a fool.

$15/h minimum wage is for students and an in-between for unemployed or when you're retired and want to make some extra cash by sitting at WalMart.

Do note that if you are a billionaire, it would be very foolish to spend much of that money. Most of your money would be tied up in your businesses employing thousands or even millions of people, spending that value and converting it into cash means selling off parts of your business, which means you either devalue it or lose control over it. You may need to fire all your employees and destroy all your assets just so you can give them a one-time payment? Then what? They'll get some fancy TV's before they're all unemployed for the next decade?

Going from rich to pauper is easy, not the other way around.

@SimonSez: Blacks/African Americans only make up 12% of the population, whites make up 60%. Blacks given your own statistics commit "hate crimes" at least 2 times as much as Whites on average.

@Simonsez: You're only including mass shootings. When you look at racially charged crime statistics from the FBI, you get a different picture. Sure black people don't go on a lone wolf rampage that makes the news, but plenty of race-driven crime happens against hispanics, asians and whites. Chicago alone has enough murders in a weekend to make any rampage shooter blush. Either way, any sort of extremism is bad.

On the other hand, we all have to do what we need to do to protect ourselves. At this point, it's clear the police in left-wing cities has been told to stand down, where I live, it's slowly spreading to suburbs, businesses are looted and torched throughout the day.

The place I used to live which was on the outskirts of the city had an attempted mass shooting at a Walmart by a BLM 'protestor' (terrorist) yet our police are simply 'holding the line', nobody is reporting on this, nobody is saying that BLM and Antifa are terrorists.

I currently live relatively far outside the city (20 minutes by car), one of 'the best places to live in the US' and all day we've been hearing fire trucks and police on the main road. Tomorrow I'm going to get my first gun, a short 9mm rifle, legal, portable, collapsible and light enough for home defense. Me and my neighbors will have to hold our line when it comes to it.

has anyone turned it down or know of someone who did turn down being an elder or ms?.

yes, it should be one of the biggest privileges a brother can get !!

(how do i put the barfy icon in?

Anony Mous

I know some people that have explicitly turned it down, before I left, many weren't willing to take up the mantle and just outright refused.

I did accept it to make a point, the meeting that my appointment was announced was the first meeting I intentionally didn't attend.

Do You Think We Will Ever Get Back To “Normal”?

i hope that within the next several months we will get back to some type of normalcy.

will restaurants ever get filled again?

will you ever be able to sit at a bar or go to a concert or broadway show?.

@Finkelstein: We've seen nations that both had full shutdowns and left the country open. Even within the US we've seen both. Florida remained open while NY locked down tight, NY is worse off than Florida in every measure. Sweden is better off in every measure.

It's almost as if poor policies and ideologies that were in place prior to the pandemic mattered more than the policies the government enacted after it began. We haven't seen the full analysis yet, but people with private health care choices did orders of magnitude better than those that relied on government health care options in the US, a lot of people lost those options with ObamaCare.

The reason so many died in NY is because Medicare/Medicaid/ObamaCare policies forced old people and homeless back into nursing homes and shelters to reduce costs for empty and financially failing state hospitals which Cuomo effectively turned into a political tool to blame others. Even in the midst of the pandemic, Cuomo made very clear that taking in money for his state was more important when he said volunteer health care workers would have to pay income taxes to NYS.

Florida on the other hand committed funds to hospitals so people with COVID-19 could stay longer in the hospital. Cuomo still hasn't copied those policies, I'm working in a currently financially defunct system myself within NY, we got more from Trump ($200M from the Federal Government) than NYS ($30M).

There is no 'normal' to go back to. People will adjust and behaviors will be changed. The primary problem is that when a real pandemic comes by (something along the lines of Ebola) nobody will believe the governments. The governments blew this thing way out of proportion, especially the effects it was going to have on health care systems.

Nothing they warned about realized, not even their best case scenarios, and it turns out that the biggest proponents of the shut downs were themselves liars and cheaters that didn't follow their own advice. People hopefully realize the media and politicians doesn't have their best interest at heart.

Anony Mous

Civil war is possible and I've been thinking that ever since Obama started this divisive political nastyness.

The civil war will not be south vs north, it will be city vs suburb. The cities have long been under rule that takes away their voice in exchange for state handouts. The coronavirus has put state handouts under extreme pressure and not having jobs to look forward is an easy spark.

Tasers don't work, I am large enough and have experienced electric shocks enough they hurt but don't phase me much. Under the influence of drugs/alcohol, you can walk through a taser shot with some muscle twitching.

It also takes ~30-60s to reload a taser if you miss. They're basically a 1-bullet gun and could be equally dangerous under the right circumstances.

These officers should've had guns. In the UK about as much officers (152 in 2019) die in the line of duty than the entire US combined (158 in 2019)
