Monday marks day 54 of protests in Louisville, following the shooting death of Breonna Taylor. One group is taking that protest further with a hunger strike.
They began their strike on a Facebook Live today at noon.
The people who have been out protesting decided they needed to do more. The participants say they want to re-energize the protests but amplify that theyre hungry for justice.
For the past several weeks, around Louisville weve all heard these protesters voices. As of Monday, they want us to hear their hunger. Theres only one thing that they say will satisfy them.
We just want justice; however that is going to look and whatever the outcome, Amira Bryant said. Bryant is one of the four people who have volunteered to go on the hunger strike.

...four people who have volunteered to go on the hunger strike. Sounds like a small day care center everyday around lunch rather than "protest movement" AND without even clicking the link am I guessing that these 4 are young, single, female and ugly?

LOL. Like anyone with a brain believes they will actually starve themselves. It’s all kabuki theater.

I’m in complete agreement with them. Fully fund the police and let the protesters starve themselves to death.

I like that idea. I hope they get the proper time to starve their asses to death.

“As of Monday, they want us to hear their hunger”
That’s your stomach growling from not eating.

If only they actually meant it. This typical Leftist posturing. Just like all the Leftists that threaten to leave the USA if the Republican wins every presidential election cycle.

A little starving won't hurt 'em.

Wall them off and deny food when they start begging for it. Meanwhile, set up nearby barbecues,

I’ve no problem with it. Never mind that these protestors won’t *actually* starve.
