Do either of these two countries have enough blacks to fill a coffee house?

Tensions DID NOT reach a boiling point in England, a place that has no connection with the acts under “protest”. Trouble makers are trying (and straining rather badly at that) to start something. These shortsighted asses are going get their wish, eventually,and they’ll rue the day. They don’t understand the nature of their enemies.

Thanks to Obama, Holder, Soros and the rest, BLM has plenty of money to spread out all over the globe.

<><> Obama and Congressional Democrats----w/ then-AG Eric Holder----gave NeighborWorks America (formerly ACORN), and blood-thirsty La Raza a huge funding source...our tax dollars.

<><> Obama/Holder/Dems extorted banks via DOJ litigation/bank settlements----these nefarious organizations got all the loot.

Holder's DOJ went after CitiCorp and ordered them to pay $50 million to La Raza and NeighborWorks America as part of bank settlements.

A clause in the settlement agreement makes it possible for La Raza and NeighborWorks America to rake in even larger amounts of money.

Of the remaining money the banks needed to pay in settlements, the banks were required to contribute additional money to La Raza and NeighborWorks America. For every dollar contributed, their debt to the government reduced by 2 dollars. That’s some mighty powerful incentive to give generously.

==================================================

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) and House Financial Services Chairman Jeb Hensarling have questioned why this money was sent to the ACORN clone and the blood-thirsty LaRaza----rather than to the alleged victims of the bank’s crime. The administration of course declined to answer.

Here's part of the Congressmen's letter to Holder: “It seems that the alleged victims are not the primary beneficiaries of these multi-billion dollar settlements. Instead, the terms in the Justice Department’s two latest settlements look less like consumer relief and more like a scheme to funnel money to politically favored special interest groups.”

“This makes donations to activist groups far more attractive to banks than providing direct relief to injured consumers. As a result, the settlements appear to serve as a vehicle for funding activist groups rather than as a means of securing relief for consumers actually harmed.”

=====================================

So now, with tons of money to fix the presidential election, the largest and most successful voter fraud campaign may alter the course of the elections not to mention the future of the United States.

NO WONDER HILLARY KEEPS SMILING.

=======================================

AND THIS---Obama bullied bank to pay racial settlement without proof: report
NY Post ^ | 2/7/2016 | Paul Sperry / FR Posted by DCdude

Newly uncovered internal memos reveal the Obama administration knowingly exaggerated charges of racial discrimination in probes of Ally Bank and other defendants in the $900 billion car-lending business as part of a racial justice campaign that's looking more like a massive government extortion and shakedown operation

Obama's Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has reached more than $220 million in settlements with several auto lenders since the agency launched its anti- discrimination crusade against the industry in 2013. Several other banks are under active investigation. That's despite the fact that the CFPB had no actual complaints of racial discrimination--- it was all just based on half-baked statistics.

A 23-page internal report detailing CFPB's strategy for going after lenders shows why these companies are forking over millions of dollars in restitution and fines to the government despite denying any wrongdoing.

CFPB applied the screws to Ally, saying it had statistical evidence showing its participating dealers were œmarking up loan prices for blacks and Hispanics vs. whites (by an average of $3 a month). Ally fought back, insisting non-discriminatory factors, such as credit history, down payments, trade-ins, promotions and rate- shopping, explained differences in loan pricing. After conducting a preliminary regression analysis, the bank found these factors alone accounted for at least 70 percent of the “racial disparities” the government was claiming.

CFPB admits in the memo that it never considered these or other legitimate business aspects of the car deals it investigated

Also in its initial rebuttal, Ally complained CFPB's entire case was based on disparate impact statistics, not actual complaints by consumers, and that those estimates relied on guesswork about the race of the borrowers. (The auto industry does not report borrower race, so CFPB tried to ID race by last name and ZIP code, a so-called proxy method that is wildly inaccurate.)

They ‘care’ because they are part of the same worldwide organization (BLM) with the same ends - the utter destruction of police forces in the US and through their connections in the anarchist community and with Hamas the imposition of Sharia and Islam everywhere.

BINGO! Anyone who believes that BLM is about racial injustice needs to crawl out from under the turnip truck.

BLM is being used to gin up a crisis and globalists/NWO/liberals "never let a crisis go to waste".

Obama tipped his hand yesterday with his proposal of more federal control of local/state law enforcement. But there are many other goals, including but not limited to:

1) Grabbing guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens

2) Limiting free speech

3) Strengthening the executive branch at the expense of the legislative and judicial branches

4) Elimination of the middle class through transfer of wealth

5) Civil war which will justify Executive emergency powers

6) Federalization all law enforcement 7) Repeal of the Tenth Amendment (federalism).

Their goals are clear as day. All you have to do is look at the liberal rhetoric that rears its ugly head after each of these events. They don't even bother to disguise it any more.

People will fight more violently to defend their self image than life itself. (There is ample evidence of this, consider Japanese Kamikazes.) For many Europeans and others in the West, a great deal of their self image is invested in the ridiculous notion that they are culturally and morally superior to white Americans. Germans believe this. Think. About. That.

In the 1950’s they could at least cling to the vapid tu quoque argument, “but you are lynching Negros.” Both of the recent “controversial” incidents involved armed felons in possession of handguns, shot in confrontations with the police.

Vermont has about the loosest gun laws in the United States, and about 75% of its residents own firearms. It also has a firearms murder rate of 0.3 per 100,000 and an overall homicide rate of 1.1 per 100,000. Lower than France, Belgium or Great Britain. It also has an overwhelming white population.

The problem is not firearms and it is not white Americans.

‘hands up, don’t shoot!’

If people would just, you know, put their hands up... I guess they’d run out of people to protest for.

I’ve had more than a couple people pull the Black Lives Matter campaign out on me, people I usually consider to be quite sane. ‘Yes, I know all lives matter, but...’ they start with, and my response is: All lives do matter, it starts in the womb, and you should absolutely repudiate those who try to turn it into a racial argument and embrace a far more inclusive, broad and consistent message.

‘But those who say ‘All lives matter’ are trying to hijack the cause...’

Not a cause, an exclusion. You’re trying to make it about one demographic; if you’re going to protest police violence, you also have to protest violence by those who attack police, violence by those who fight police. You can’t disclaim hate while holding up as example those who live in hate.

‘But black men are dying...’

By the score in Chicago; if you’re going to make it about that, then there’s where you need to march.

“Again, my spell check has shut down systemwide? Any ideas why?”

I don’t have a clue but there seem to be as many errors blamed on USING spell check as for any other reason. I have tried it and I do much better without it. Spell check seems not to know, in many cases, just what word you are trying to spell and in other cases seems not to know the actual correct spelling.

Did they speak out against the Democrat party, who runs almost all of the cities where blacks are regularly gunned down?

I had the pleasure of meeting a gentleman from the UK at our local farm market here in Upstate New York.

His accent was distinctive and I asked him where he was from. Interestingly, he said from the UK. I had expected him to say England. We talked for a little while and I asked him about Brexit.

He was happy the old folks stood up in order to regain their sovereignty.

He said the young folks know zip. I told him we have the same problem here.

He's been here for 30 years and was about 65.

He made my day.

BLM and various Muzzy groups are simply a form of anarchy designed to bring Marxism to our shores. It is insidious and zer0 is the de facto leader and implementor.

zer0 pours gasoline. Starts riots. Ready for martial law and president for life.

Yep, and from his vantage point, who is going to stop him? Congress? SCOTUS? The Joint Chiefs? Pffft...

It's Trump or outright war, and it is probably war anyway with Trump, but at least we can have a chance to turn back the red tide at the Federal level if elections are held and he wins.
