I used to spend a lot of time in and around the Loop in downtown Chicago. Had a dozen years where a third of my time I lived and worked there during the week and commuted home on the weekend.
The blacks and other minorities I was around in business, at my condo I rented, at hotels and just on the street were very fine people. I base that assessment on spending time in dozens of large and small communities all over the nation.
Now, I was in the Southside a time or two late at night and I know there are places that are not like downtown, but I wouldn't begin to think that AntiFa and BLM are about Racial issues. This is the Armed Left -- the Communists.
It’s about free stuff and an opportunity for causing chaos, nothing more. Those fine people you speak of live primarily on a voting plantation (Well over 80%) that gives authority to these “people” to do their will.
There should be no excuses for those who vote for any democrat, for they are misguided and intellectually reckless.
