Scenes of Minneapolis - home of the PEACEFUL Protest

Oh my.  I can only imagine what a non-peaceful protest would look like.

It's idiotic and misleading to focus on a few isolated incidents of violence and then say the entire protest was "non-peaceful."

 

This stupid conservative narrative has been circulating for weeks. The vast majority of the protestors have been peaceful. When some alt-right white boys come in with their gas cans and guns and set fire to things, that doesn't change the overall peaceful nature of the protests.

 

Of course, you can choose to focus on the violent incidents to the exclusion of everything else. It's the way Trumpers try to demean the protestors and obscure their message.

 

That's what you're trying to do here, boys. Belittle the protestors, sling racist attacks at them, and concentrate on the worst aspects of the protests while ignoring what the protests are about. You should be SOOOOO proud of yourselves.

    "a few isolated incidents of violence" ---- equaling $55 MILLION in damages -- thank goodness the "vast majority of the protesters"  were "peaceful". Shameful for " the way Trumpers try to demean the protestors and obscure their message" -I guess that delivering their "message" was worth the $55 million in damages, businesses and business owners lives ruined. It is just shameful to "belittle" the protesters. Shameful!   What a stupid conservative narative!

Yep. News media covering the protests by focusing only on the incidents of violence and looting is in and of itself systematic racism.

 

The protestors' message is much more important than the violence. And BTW, we know that much of that violence was caused by alt-right white boys from hundreds of miles away who actually had nothing to do with the protests.

 

But you and Fox News, etc. etc. can continue to distort the issue if you wish. We understand your ideological motivations to do so. We know how much you hate Black people and civil rights.

 

 

  "The protestors' message is much more important than the violence." -Really?- I wonder just how many of the business owners and citizens agree with your statement. -----------Would your "message" be the same if YOU were one of the business owners there? Or if YOU were one of the citizens?  --- I don't know what videos you were watching, but I did not see "much of that violence was caused by alt-right white boys ".

Believe what you want. I'm not really asking for any responses from you--your viewpoints are worthless. But go on screaming, bleating, and spreading hate propaganda. You have every right to say what you think--just like those protestors you hate so very, very much.

True, I do have every right to say what I think ---the difference is I don't injure and destroy others property and businesses when I say what I think.

Neither did the protestors--except for a very few.

Thank goodness that the limited rioting in Indianapolis only damaged 112 business.  Luckily it was so peaceful.
