They (BLM) thought in their ignorance, that marching in these small communities was going to intimidate whitey (which, if truth be known, almost every small community has a contingent of blacks that have fled to the safety of small, mostly white communities). They did their thing in my small community and a couple of other adjoining towns around here too. I got irritated at the ‘warm’ reception by some of the locals. Apparently they weren’t connecting the fact that the cretins are implying they are racists and that the organization is marxist in nature. In any case though, no one attacked them and they also got the message ‘not’ to attack.
At that Black Lives Matters protest, the display of firearms was 100% them. The shop owners as myself displayed nothing. We were armed to the teeth but wished not to display such. BLM knew it. Thus nothing happened. If violence had of occurred they would have lost their ass.
