Michelle Obama Claims ‘Only A Tiny Fraction Of Demonstrations Have Had Any Violence At All’
LaCorte News ^ | 10/6/2020 | Penka Arsova

Posted on 10/06/2020 2:28:24 PM PDT by Zenyatta

In a Biden campaign video released Tuesday, former First Lady Michelle Obama argued that only a small percentage of protests in the U.S. have turned violent.

The story: The former first lady asserted that the majority of protests in the U.S. are peaceful and instances of riots and looting scarce. She also said in the video that claiming otherwise is “racist.”

Shortly before that, she attacked President Trump for what she said was dividing the American people. Obama further noted that painting protests against racism and police brutality as violent plays into President Trump’s tactic to scare people into voting for him. She called this period a “difficult time, a confusing time” and said, “when people hear these lies and crazy conspiracy theories repeated over and over and over again, they don’t know what to think.”

I’m also mindful that only a small percentage of Nazi party members much less the whole of the German population in the 1930’s and 40’s actually killed Jews, gypsies and the disabled. It is not the size of the group that is of consequence, but its relative impact on doing good or evil in the world that is at the heart of the issue.

Yes, and Jesus was only crucified for a tiny fraction of his time on earth.

It’s the ‘one foot in the river, the other in the fire - on average, I’m pretty comfortable ‘ analogy.

Well, Moosechelle, it could also be said that 'only a tiny fraction of Americans died from Covid-19.'

Specifically 0.64% of the population.

I’m sure that it was more than that in NYC alone.

I wish she were as good as a lying Sasquatch. She isn’t even close. And there are people who believe every word out of her lying, vicious mouth.

I’ll take the same “tiny fraction” of the $2 billion of property destruction and theft. 3% x $2B = $60 million, thank you!

“She also said in the video that claiming otherwise is “racist.””


And there you have it. If you think there was violence, you’re a racist and should just shut up! Or to put it another way, “Shut Up!”, she explained.

Millions and millions of guns owned in the USA. Only a minute fraction of them are used to commit crimes.

Checkmate!

“Delusional”

Maybe she watches the news, cause that’s what they say too.

One hundred percent of the violence was by Democrats.

She forgot to mention that the (few) violent protestors are white supremacists. She be slacking.

True story: A long time friend is so caught up in the media/blogger BS as she sends me article after article trying to blame Trump and capitalism for every ill in the US. She used to be reasonable. I finally got tired of sending her documented counter facts when she said "You and your buddies are looking to kill anyone who disagrees with fascist Trump.

I asked did she really mean me, and she said yes. I was astounded since I've never said nor implied such a thing. My last words: "You have lost your f#cking mind accusing me of such a heinous act. FOAD, you nutcase." Sad thing is, we once actually agreed on some of Trump's policies, but not his demeanor or tweets. She is now all in for BLM and Antifa and actually believed it's white supremacists who are doing the rioting.

Goes to show you the influence of the MSM and bloggers. We are definitely in a real fight for our American values, liberty, traditions, history, and even free enterprise.
