Is this the same Frank Rizal from the Jerky Boys?

16 August 1977 is when he died. Perhaps today is day they will strike.

I was wrong

"Protest leaders say the mass demonstration is planned for 6:00pm Monday. They said they specifically chose Graceland because it is Elvis week and they know it will raise awareness."

Why is it BLM, and not AALM?

Because African-American is what guilt ridden lefties and people who don’t think about it call them.
I call them black, I have some black friends and the know who I am. Funny, the think like me too.

BLM are proud supporters of the Palestinians and Hamas and radical Islam. Even libs won’t touch BLM with a 10 foot pole.

Frank Rizzo was the last decent mayor that Philadelphia had. He was the former police commissioner who didn’t take crap from the criminal class and that’s why the BLM hates him.

Last time I looked, the Libs were embracing BLM. Including their Standard Bearer, Hillary.

Because “B” is one syllable and “AA” is six syllables and the”Bs” who ascribe to BLM have enough trouble with even some one syllable words because hood slang overrides anything that might be learned in a classroom - unless “Ebonics” is taken into consideration?

Yes, and that's why the MSM is working to suppress news about black violence. Truth works against liberal liars...

No, this is the former mayor of Philadelphia - who started out in life as a beat cop and was famous for the “shocking” things he said and the way he openly talked about beating hippies, etc.

This video will give you an idea; lots of colorful talking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HWHhev-aag

He was a Democrat, but when he died he was running for mayor again - as a Republican - and he would have won most likely!

Some might say he was Trump before Trump was Trump:

In 1986, he became a Republican and ran in the mayoral election of 1987, once again losing to Goode, by 49% to 51%: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7_v1e9kylg He ran again in 1991 and apparently was headed for victory according to some observers.
