Jesse Jackson: Chicago Riot ‘Humiliating… Our Martyrs Cry Together in Shame’
Breitbart ^ | 10 Aug 2020 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Posted on 08/10/2020 4:00:54 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Left-wing activist Rev. Jesse Jackson decried widespread looting in the Democrat-run city of Chicago Monday morning, calling it “humiliating, embarrassing, and morally wrong.” “This act of pillaging, robbing & looting in Chicago was humiliating, embarrassing & morally wrong,” Jackson wrote on social media. “It must not be associated with our quest for social justice and equality. #DrKing, #MedgarEvers & , our martyrs, cry together in shame.” Hundreds of people descended on downtown Chicago overnight after a police shooting on the city’s South Side, with vandals smashing the windows of dozens of businesses and making off with merchandise, cash machines, and anything else they could carry, authorities said.

Has his funding dried up with corporations giving protection money to the extortionists running Black Looting Mobs instead of to Je$$e?

I think that shareholders of major retail chains should go to the annual meetings and demand an answer for why they maintain stores in the inner cities of Chicago, Portland, New York City, and elsewhere. Normally, the cost of operating these stores is higher due to the cost of added security. These stores, invariably, experience higher “shrink”, and the employees from the neighborhoods are less dependable. You can be woke all day long, but doing business there is not good for business. At least IMHO....

It must not be associated with our quest for social justice and equality. #DrKing, #MedgarEvers & , our martyrs, cry together in shame.”

Tough schiff, you POS. It was people like you, shake down artists, that screwed up equality. You turned generations of Negores into takers, not makers. You destroyed the black family and replaced it with baby mommas on welfare with multiple children from different sperm contributors. Education doesn't mean a damn thing to 95% of Negroes. You, Jesse Jackson, made it that way. Social justice is utter horse schiff. There is justice and justice. There isn't a special variety based on the color of your skin. It's based on the content of your character, and your content Mr. Jackson is woefully lacking. You eff'n Marxist pig. (Thanks, I needed to get that off my chest.)

I don’t like the guy anymore than you do, but how many other black Democrats can you name who have condemned the violence?

At least he had a smidgeon of conscience. “Can we all get along in peace”

We could...it’s possible...if...

Of course.

That’s why Rev Jackson, Mayor Lightfoot, even the mayor of Portland Oregon have, after 2 months suddenly become so hard- line law-and-order lately. The focus groups are telling them that being pro-riot is hurting.

If the polls said that about being pro-abortion, our liberal friends would suddenly be more pro-life than Mother Theresa.

Jackson wrote on social media. “It must not be associated with our quest for social justice and equality.

How convenient that would be for you.

Jesse is a little slow on the uptake-—been a long time since anyone heard a peep out of him-— a “kinder,gentler” type of shakedown artist than the later Sharpton, but a shakedown artist nonetheless. Even King saw through him ,too late-—he’d already attached himself like a barnacle.

CIVILIZATION

Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage’s whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.

The precondition of a civilized society is the barring of physical force from social relationships—thus establishing the principle that if men wish to deal with one another, they may do so only by means of reason: by discussion, persuasion and voluntary, uncoerced agreement.

The necessary consequence of man’s right to life is his right to self-defense. In a civilized society, force may be used only in retaliation and only against those who initiate its use.

Well Jesse, where have you been for months? So, now that it hits your backyard, it’s humiliating and morally wrong?
