> A lone woman, in one video, is seen surrounded by white activists raising their fists and shouting: “White silence is violence! White silence is violence!” <

That sentence illustrates two very significant points.

1. It is a mistake to see BLM as just a black thing. The organization has been hijacked by white radicals.

2. Now just being silent is a crime to these folks. They no longer will respect the wishes of someone who just wants to be left alone. I cannot see how this will not lead to violence.

Good points. I don't think the Left has ever left people alone. They are the true bullies all over the planet. Every Left leaning friend/acquaintance of mine has no problem broadcasting their beliefs and their hatred of anything non-Left. I'm sure there are plenty of bullies on the Right, but I've not experienced the genuine yearning to control people as the Left does.

” I cannot see how this will not lead to violence.”

At this point, I think it is inevitable. It will be interesting.

This is systematic oppression and it is one step away from murdering the person who doesn’t agree with the mob.

This is not just political intimidation. It is a violation of the people’s right to free speech.

“A critical component of the freedom of speech is the freedom from speech – that is, the right not to be compelled to make statements or take positions that violate the dictates of one’s conscience,” Harris wrote.

She cited the case of West Virginia Board of Education v. Barnette, in which the Supreme Court ruled that requiring students to salute the American flag was not legal, after a group of Jehovah’s Witnesses refused to do so.
