    If one took a map and the counties that Hillary Clinton won during the 2016 2016 election. And today's counties that are in riot conditions. You as almost a perfect merge of the two documents.

    The death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police have sparked protests in more than 75 cities across the United States and around the world. many of the protests, against police brutality against an unarmed black man, have gotten violent, forcing the National Guard to intervene in some cases.

    If the local police kills a suspect but innocent man somewhere in the US it has an effect on the Palestinians who get killed during a terror attack on the Israeli police or by mistake. Can you see the connection? Whatever bad happens in the world the reason is the Israeli occupation. Congrats Ashrawi, you learned from your friend Omar and Tlaib.

    How about requiring schools to send children home who refuse to wear masks. Currently schools are not allowed to even enforce any rules on mask wearing

    Gadi Yevarkan: I cannot rest with the image of George Floyd's murder

     

    This is one of the most racist, cruel and deadly events ever recorded, Yevarkan, an Ethiopian immigrant, said. What has happened is atrocious, but the worst ever recorded? I guess he has forgotten about the holocaust and the millions of blacks that have been and continue to be kidnapped, castrated, and sold into slavery. People put in steel cages and burned alive. Yes, what happened to George Floyd was a horrible abuse of power and never should of happened but Yavarkan needs to study world history and current events.

     

    Nice spin. But it's Antifa.

There were plenty of people coming into Oakland from the more conservative regions of the state. Politicizing this is a mistake, especially given that the left has made this about Trump far less than I would've expected. We need to find commonality in all of this. What that officer did was flat out wrong but the wheels of justice are moving faster than i've ever seen in such a case. And these displays, torching police cars, police stations, are not the actions to be taken. All it is doing is drawing battlelines for a war that can not be won through violence.

    People not heard will react with oppositional defiance. Regardless of the rhetoric of peaceful protest pleas. They havs made to stay indoors and watch their communities crumble to abject poverty. These us citizens will have their voice heard. Kids ignored will misbehave it really isn't rocket science humans as an animal are the most collective destructive force in this biosphere.

    The map represents a 50 50 split in America. All the areas not effected directly with this world riot. The riots are not confined here nearly 17 nations have areas in new riot not the usual war zones.

    50 percent of America faces direct riot scenes. 50 percent of America doesn't. But don't kid yourself all of America will be effected by this event more dramatically than with just corona viral concerns.

    I'm going to start a protest against citizen violence. You know, the kind where regular ole folks kill, rape, and beat each other. By the hundreds a day(if not more).

    One POS cop from Minnesota commits a crime, and this is the outcome?

    Definitely UMS.. Here's another one. A bunch of old people get killed by a bad flu from the Communists. Spreads worse than most bad flu's but kills relative to the every year version. 

    Fact: 7,700 people die a year in the U.S.A. (2.8M per year), just under 1%. The counter just cracked 100,000 and it took 3 months over this and this stops a rolling U.S. economy and puts 40M out of work, AND SHUTS F'N VEGAS DOWN...

    We went to our knees with the flu and now a cop kills one guy, heinously as it is and this is what we get? Gonna take live rounds soon or the government could easily have a problem. Minneapolis idiot mayor never should've given up that police station like it was in Kabul. Go through the crowd to hold it. You don't do that to a police station.

    Where's the leadership (Democratic Party) calling for calm since it's their voters) ? I haven't heard a word since the Atlanta mayor went off Friday night.

    The great Reverands? crickets, must be complicit if not calling off the dogs.

    Dozens of cities are burning down and now we find out George Floyd had recently used methamphetamine when he died, and also found "fentanyl intoxication.".. the Hennepin County medical examiner said ...

    So,George was stopped for allegedly trying to pay at grocery store with fake $20 bill..he appeared to be resisting arrest on one video (drugs could make you do this )and he was on a illegal drugs.

    Solution to the problem we are having in America with black Americans dying while being arrested by white Police officers ..

    Don't break the law,don't take illegal drugs and do not resist arrest..there are other things we can do ..nevertheless do those three things and most (not all) for the incidences like this would not happen..

    Got ya. So white people can do all of these petty crimes without being killed for them but don't do them while black. Thanks for the tip, bro. I'll pass on the message.

    You can make excuses. Say he tried to pass a phony $20. Say he was on drugs. Say he had medical conditions. Say he resisted. The fact is he doesn't die if an officer charged to protect and serve doesn't put his knee into the back of the neck of an already cuffed man. He was cuffed. There were two officers already pinning him down. He pleaded. Bystanders pleaded. A fucking officer pleaded. He decided to ignore all. It's not a justifiable homicide in the line of duty. It's murder. He killed a man as he begged for his life after responding to a call for a counterfeit $20. Now white people love to quote the number of white people killed by police officers. Find me the case where it these killings start with a counterfeit $20. Or a routine traffic stop of an innocent man, ect. White people get killed for fighting with cops. Shooting at cops. Not passing bogus dubs. Not selling loosie cigarettes. Slim, you know I respect you but miss me with that, "Well, you shouldn't have been breaking the law...." bullshit.

    p.s. Another black man was killed by police in Louisville Sunday night. A group, not protesting, had gathered in a part of the city they gather in every Sunday night for food and music. The dead man barbeques for the event. Again, while there was no protest going on, the police and national guard were called in to enforce curfew. They claim they were fired on first. We may never know since none of them activated their body cams. Find me the story of the white person killed for breaking a curfew.

    In Chicago, there is ZERO coverage of what is happening on the south and west side. Reporters won't dare go there. Cops have basically vacated those hoods. I've only seen some helicopter footage. My friends have been seeing all the real footage via snapchat. ALL stores are either boarded up or looted.

    Kind of a deconstructive method of protest wouldn't you say? I don't understand people.

    In Chicago they vacated the police from the bad neighborhoods and used them to reinforce protesting boundaries to the loop, gold coast, and north side. Basically in parts where they knew the citizens of those neighborhoods wouldn't loot their own backyards, but the threat of looting from outsiders was always a possibility.

    In turn, people are burning their own neighborhoods. Their have been only a few minor injuries to police that I have heard of so far. If those police were to remain in the hood to you know, do their jobs, there'd be blood spilled on both sides. And if any looters got hurt, killed or arrested, why should the police be a part of more fuel to the "racism" fire?

    Chicago is gangster, from the street level all the way to the top of the politician's offices. We raised all the bridges on the Chicago River so people couldn't cross for Christ's sake.

    You'll like this one Sundance. Here's a video from Elmhurst, where a lot of ex cops live, that used to live on the west side when it was primarily Italian in the 60's. 2 man protest fail.

    Unfortunately,  black on black crime doesn't matter in society.   I guess not all black lives matter to society, and   That is just so hypocritical.
