They were not protesting. They were rioting. They engaged in violence, intimidation, destruction of property and other crimes

If it had been directed at any other group, the riot police would have been there the 1st time they tried their goon tactics. They would of all faced serious jail time.

A small start, but it is a start.

It’s enough to put everyone else on notice.

BLM riots were directed at whites throughout 2020.

The only consequences were that some BLM leaders got book deals, DEI consultancy fees, government grants and various other lucrative gigs.

Yeah, and Israel was suddenly totally incapable of stopping such an attack. Amazing.

But the cleansing of millions must go on.
