The three women began Black Lives Matter in 2013 with the social media hashtag #BlackLivesMatter after the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, a black Florida teenager. The hashtag and its meaning became nationally known in 2014 in response to the death of Michael Brown, a black teenager who was shot and killed by police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Missouri....

A
peace prize of some kind for the violent BLM organization?
How ridiculous.
Apparently, actual truth—aka objective reality—doesn't matter...

If you ever check out their web page, take a BIG bucket with you. It’s projectile-vomit inducing.
Just sayin’...

“Black Lives Matter founders to be awarded 2017 Sydney Peace Prize”
Obuma sent one of his peaceful BLM big chiefs down to South Carolina last summer. He’s facing 10 to 20 years in state prison for attempted murder.
But it gets better...Obuma or Soros didn’t do squat to protect this BLM thug from prosecution - no bail money, no lawyer. That sent a message to BLM thugs that you’re on your own; you’re nothing more than tools and useful idiots.
Ha, ha, fools!

I always thought it was funny when Deray & Netta decided that Talcum X (Shaun King) was cutting into their money and that he was really a white guy, she called him the N word on Twitter.

Is this news?
A "peace prize" I never heard of shows itself to be about the same as that notorious "peace prize" I already heard of.
But it's not fake news because somebody really did this, right?
