The top U.N. human rights body agreed on Monday to hold an urgent debate on allegations of “systemic racism, police brutality and violence against peaceful protests” in the United States and elsewhere on Wednesday.
The U.N. Human Rights Council’s decision followed a request last week by Burkina Faso on behalf of African countries in response to the killing of George Floyd, an African American, on May 25 under the knee of a white Minneapolis police officer. His death has ignited protests across the nation and worldwide.
“We think it is a moment to really discuss this issue, as you have seen with the demonstrations all over Europe, including here in Geneva,” said Elisabeth Tichy-Fisslberger, Austria’s ambassador who serves as current president of the Council.

Get the USA out of the UN and get the UN out of the USA.
The “UN” needs to worry about the Sequoias in its own eye
This should be fun.
GFY
This is legally stupid. The problems in the USA are internal, are not government mandated and is no one else’s business.
Does the world really want to talk about what is in our yard compared to their own back yard? Who is on the UN human rights counsel these days anyway? Important Question.
Take a look at yourself. Counsel. You really want to talk? lets go. 308 is the best caliber for a simple reason. Been that way for a long time. UN-GFYS and get out of America.

A recent Chinese-African cotton agreement could usher in a new era for the African cotton industry — but not in the short-term, say industry experts. Under the agreement, signed in December with four key cotton-producing African countries — Benin, Mali, Chad and Burkina Faso (known as the C4) - China stated it would provide machinery, expertise and materials in a bid to increase and improve the quality of local production. At the signing ceremony in Geneva, Chinese commerce minister Chen Deming suggested this was a step towards outsourcing production to Africa. “In [the] longer term, we may relocate some of...
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you that shining light of democracy and racial equality: Burkino Faso, sitting in judgement over the United States!

They will be. Trump will tell them to mind their own business and FO
UN has what business in our sh*t how?
GTFO.
Time to defund this anti-American organization. Only leftist extremists (and some very gullible sheeple they indoctrinate) really think that “protests” where people burn buildings, break windows, loot, throw things at the cops, scream profanities, deface other people’s property, tear down historical artifacts, and assault (and occasionally murder) people are “peaceful.” Our cities have gone up in smoke and the left and the Democrats have aligned themselves fully on the side of the rioters and criminals and against their innocent victims.
Our racism is so “systemic” too that twice as many whites are killed by cops each year as blacks; yet naturally no one cares. They also do not care about the disproportionate numbers of whites, Asians, and Hispanics killed by blacks every year for decades rather than vice versa either. No protests over all those innocent deaths, because the openly racist left has declared their lives don’t matter nearly as much as those of their most favored group, the one they think is most politically useful to manipulate.
They don’t even care about the 90% of black murder victims who are killed by other blacks. Most black lives clearly do not matter to this lot because their deaths aren’t politically useful. We need to start standing up against the anti-American propaganda media attacks against our country and their dishonest incitement to violence and disctruction, which have painted a radically distorted image of the US abroad.
It’s offensive that countries with horrifying human rights records in the UN get to judge us based on Marxist propaganda. It is amazing how Orwellian the world is becoming right in front of our eyes.
The United Nations has jurisdiction here.

Sorry for the messed up post above.
Move the HQ to Mogadishu
So as it reads the Council’s decision followed a request last week ‘by Burkina Faso on behalf of African countries’?????
So a run down city in Africa has spear headed these allegations?
UN is anti-Christian, anti-Israel. UN is for globalism. Their opinions matter not.
How about, FOAD UN?
It's actually in their 'front yards' and they can't even see it.
