Woman Heckled By BLM Protesters At DC Restaurant Says She Still Supports The Movement

A woman dining outdoors who was harassed by protesters in Washington, D.C., wrote an op-ed saying she didn’t like being bullied for not raising her first, but that she still supports the Black Lives Matter movement.

Lauren Victor, a photographer and urban planner, has since taken part in Black Lives Matter demonstrations since the incident, according to an opinion piece she wrote for The Washington Post on Friday.

“I wholeheartedly support the Black Lives Matter movement,” Victor wrote. “I also support an individual’s choice to participate in a protest, or not.”

“In retrospect, I would have done the same thing even if it was crystal clear to me who they were and what they stood for. If you want my support, ask it of me freely,” she continued. “That’s what we do in a democracy.”

Victor added that the incident looked “scary” though she was “not hurt in any way.”

“This was a group of mostly young people of many racial backgrounds working together to sustain a movement to uphold Black people’s civil rights,” she wrote. “There are worse ways to spend a Monday night.”

“More than 600 Jewish groups signed a full-page New York Times ad in support of the Black Lives Matter movement.”

Jews are HATED by the left-wing just as they were hated by the Nazi who were left wingers.

“Nope.”

Actually, they did. The Association of German National Jews supported the Nazi and even put out a statement of support for the seizure of Nazi control in January 1933.

Because they thought Hitler was only talking about the ‘bad Jews’.

So what does she plan on doing next time she goes to a restaurant and she’s one of the few there? Most patrons there wont go out anymore until the adults and common sense are back in charge.

Protesters say: “It’s not a Nazi salute like “Heil Hitler” if we keep our fist closed.”

I believe the Nazis adopted the salute from the Italians, who in turn had revived an ancient Roman custom. Back when it was done by the Roman Empire's soldiers, the open-hand salute had a specific meaning: "See, I bear no weapon (or ill intent)".

Now then, what could a clenched fist salute signify?
