I live in New York City. Don’t kid yourself. There’s a whole ton of blacks ready to do damage in those marched. They are open for business

It’s becoming apparent to even the low-infos that “Black Lives Matter” is pretty much a bunch of skinny white kids acting out.

Nailed it and may I add the few blacks at the top are raking in the money on the back of blacks.It's a lucrative industry and an avenue of power.

I'd bet as the protests, looting, burning, etc escalated it turned off many.

The nba and other sports kneeling, etc, isn't helping.

Even the agitator at work isn't posting as much on the internal chat page.

I'm willing to be corporate Amerika is second guessing its support of this mess.

The BLM garbage is going to backfire on them. Suburban women that were weary of Trump’s mouth are doing an about face now. They’re big on security for their kids and the democrats backing of rioting thugs doesn’t play well with them. They want it to stop and Joe Biden cheering on the looting, murder, and burning is turning many of them to Trump.

I don’t think you are being fair. Trayvon Martin had some discipline issue, but none of them were violent, or is there any indication he was in a gang, or anything like that. It’s unfair to call him a thug.

From what I’ve heard more white people are raking in the money. Look at the guy who does all the racism training.

Blacks I respect.
BLM can eat sh*t and die. Rinse, repeat.

Well, if someone attacked me and was repeated bashing my head into a concrete sidewalk, I’d consider him to be a thug. But that’s just me.

Apart from the videos of Trayvon engaging in MMA style street fighting? Apart from his social media handle No_Limit_Ni**a? Apart from trying to illegally sell a pistol on his social media account? Apart from his other rantings on social media about delivering beat downs.

Watching how people generally, and white people in particular, have allowed themselves to be snookered, buffaloed, bullschitted, and played by the “civil rights movement” time and again, over and over, unendingly since the 1960s has made me utterly cynical that this country will sustain itself much longer. Our fetishistic negrophilia, even as we see our cities burn night after night for months on end caused by bogus claims of racism, will be our undoing. It’s happening right now, in real time.

And the last line is the call to action. Ratchet this up a notch dems, and fast!

That also means that without prolonged activism and sustained media attention, the impact of this year’s protests on white public opinion could evaporate entirely.

Here are a couple of handy tips for American CEOs who'd like to right their ship really quickly. Let's say you run a bakery.

When quizzed about your political views, simply smile and say, "We're too busy running a bakery to worry about much of anything else."

Oh, and if you have any "woke" employees in marketing. Tell 'em to hit the bricks.

An estimated 15 million to 26 million Americans have taken to the streets to protest police violence and advocate for Black lives.

I call a Bigly Bull-SHIITE on these numbers!

LOL. I've never watched MMA, but I see tons of white kids doing those kinds of videos. Are you saying they are all thugs?

**********************************
Still quibbling? No, of course Martin did not attack me. But considering what he did to George Zimmerman makes me consider him to be a thug.

In the same way, Lee Harvey Oswald didn’t assassinate me but did assassinate Kennedy so I consider him to be an assassin.

Did Trayvon Martin bring you chocolate chip cookies and mow your lawn for free?

If they’re engaging in street fights they probably are.
What about the rest?
