BLM is nothing more than a gang of con artists and criminals. Lock them up and throw away the key!

That’s about $46,000 a rioter. That’ll buy a lot of Salems and Colt 45.

You’re way too kind. BLM is a certified domestic terrorist cell.

Not to mention hair weaves and ghetto wheels.

They not only weren’t punished, but they are paid to burn, steal, destroy and assault.

Looks like being a professional leftist rioter is a lucrative career choice for today’s youngsters.

Let’s do the math.

- 9,250,000 total payout
- less 35% attorneys fees
- less 15% cost of litigation including, marketing, administrative fees, cost of investigation
- less larger cuts going to those with most severe injuries (probably 50-100K each, depending on taxpayer paid hospitalization and rehab and unemployment payouts).

= most class members will receive no where near what they expect, likely about 5-10K each, less taxes, and even less when the rest of the rats show up limping, with self-imposed bruises and cuts, demanding their own share.

We can do some more downstream math and figure that out of the $3mm legal contingency fee, at least a couple hundred thousand will go back to the same city managers who authorized the settlement.

It was the BLM rioters who caused the injuries. Those are the turd roller that should have been sued. The BLM Dung beetles have more money than they’ll ever be able to spend if they bought every Jaguar in the system.

Can those funds go into a non-taxed Retirement account of some type?

Now that the rioting thugs know they get their medical treatment paid for, they are just worming up.

How sad. Rewarding violent behavior only encourages more violent behavior.

Philadelphia deserves to be called a cesspool rather than a city.

Essentially money-laundering of government funds.
