National Review via Yahoo ^ | 4/22/21 | Caroline Downey

Black Lives Matter on Wednesday condemned the comments Speaker Nancy Pelosi made about George Floyd in the immediate aftermath of the Chauvin verdict.

Speaking at the Congressional Black Caucus news conference on Capitol Hill after the trial, Pelosi said, “Thank you George Floyd for sacrificing your life for justice.”

“For being there to call out to your mom, how heartbreaking was that,” Pelosi continued. “And because of you … your name will always be synonymous with justice.”

The House speaker’s remarks drew backlash and questions on social media, including from the Black Lives Matter organization.

The Black Lives Matter Twitter account called Pelosi’s remarks “so disrespectful” and pointed out that “George Floyd didn’t choose to die.”

**SNIP**

After her comments received criticism, Pelosi tweeted a response that “George Floyd should be alive today.”

No so ‘disrespectful’ when you understand that Blacks are being used by the white dominate Left. But yeah, apparently, sBLM has/have not figured this out yet.............

Gee, why was it “disrespectful?” What was wrong with her comment? Wasn’t it stupid enough?

White people need to stop caring what black crybabies have to say. If White privilege is real than why should i care what they have to say and if its fake why do they keep bothering me about it.

You just can’t please some people!
If Pelosi was black, or identified as black, nothing would have been said about it from the BLM’s.
They just didn’t like her grabbing the spotlight.

Pelosi’s too stupid to realise that she’s one of the White Devils herself.

“Maybe they should riot.”

Maybe? Burning, threatening and rioting are the 3 best talents on the resume of a BLM booger.

That’s exactly what the poster is saying and it’s 100% true. BLM is simply a means to an end, and if the Left ever gets total power, BLM will be among the first left-wing foot soldiers, along with Antifa and the LGBQT folks, to go to the gulags.

That’s rich. BLM’s sole purpose for existing is to manipulate black people’s emotions in order to advance its own fortunes.

She is a member of a fragile aristocracy. This aristocracy must continually transform through an ever-changing multitude of celebrated social media posts. Their self-created, arrogant positions are stoutly rooted in impressions. When challenged they begin the search for deeper ground to erect new fortresses without acknowledging disruption of any previous positions. They are unconcerned with what emerges, because it will be placed within the boundaries of the willful exertions of a mind never redirected by the legitimate spiritual beliefs or moral philosophies that sustained our founding.
