Sure. It’s her right to be a hypocrite. I don’t see why not other than the fact she will lose viewers. I, for one, won’t be tuning into her show anymore and that’s my right. I already gave up on CNN. Tucker is the only guy I can tolerate at this point. 

Just so you know, I agree with you on Ingraham. I also agree about Tucker. I think he's a pretty straight shooter. Hannity on the other hand is just a cheerleader for Trump. Can't stand him. I think we agree on a lot of things. Stay safe Justice.

I don't agree that most people on PPP don't think their fellow citizens protesting perceived injustice have a legit case. I think there is confusion about legitimacy of feelings and accuracy of perceptions. They are different. Racism is a real thing. That it exists is not debatable. The degree that it exists, the degree to which it is behind behavior in general, and the degree to which it permeates and motivates an entire profession are all debatable.

 

I believe a vast majority of those peacefully protesting legitimately feel what they feel. However, the accuracy of their perception that an entire profession is so pervasively racist that they have no regard whatsoever for black lives is certainly open for honest debate. 

 

Of course, we all know it is easier to paint an entire group with the same brush stroke... Not intellectually honest, but easier

Yup. And all that needs to be done to address this situation is the media has to report all police brutality cases equally regardless of race. That’s all. Lol. I won’t hold my breath. 
 

And then maybe, just maybe, blacks would sit back and say, ‘wow. We aren’t the only ones getting killed by cops’.

I agree with just about everything you said. As far as the part in bold lettering how do we actually know that? Maybe it just isn’t publicized. Maybe it falls on deaf ears because the people that are hearing those speeches aren’t the ones that need to hear it. 

 

Thanks for the reply. Those figures are right out of the FBI's Uniform Crime Reports. Staggering numbers. You're right, I don't think it is widely known.

AMID DEMONSTRATIONS, LIBERAL ELITES PRAISE VIOLENCE AS PROTEST TOOL:

There’s an astonishing story in the Boston Globe-Democrat — it’s hard to imagine it appearing anywhere else — in which Newbury Street shop owners hit by looters and vandals Sunday night still stand by the protest “heroes.” These stores were ransacked, and not for survival gear or basic foodstuffs, but sneakers, coats and luxury goods.

 

No matter. The events on the streets in response to the killing of George Floyd are good. Period.

 

If you think it’s unfair to throw peaceful protesters and violent rioters under the same bus, you make an excellent point. That’s almost as bad as treating all cops like racist murderers — throwing bricks at them, screaming in their faces, calling them “pigs,” — because one despicable dirtbag in Minnesota used his badge to perpetrate a horrific crime.

 

So yes, it’s possible to support protests and not support violence. Unfortunately, many members of the social justice platoons are determined to defend both. And so the headline from Slate.com is “Non-violence is an important tool for protests, but so is violence.”

 

Nine local police officers were injured trying to protect the lives and property of Bostonians, and Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins takes to the mic Monday to attack the cops as murderers.

 

In a New York Magazine piece entitled “The Rioters Aren’t Here to Convince You,” Zak Cheney-Rice defends the violence in and of itself, arguing that, like The Joker who wanted to see everything burn, “you might begrudge the rioters their insistence on seeing some of it burn for a few nights. But then again, you’d be missing their point.”

 

 

 

 

As Stacey McCain writes, it’s “The Return of the Riot Ideology.”

Interestingly enough, black men are more likely to be killed by law enforcement (based on size of population) than any other group. They also have more contact with police (based on population size).

 

However, if you are going to be a murder victim, you have the greatest chance of having your death be at the hands of law enforcement if you are a white male than any other group.

 

2015-2019:

Approx 32,000 murders of black men. 1118 (approx 3.5%) of black men were killed by law enforcement.

Approx 22,000 murders of white men. 2215 (approx 10%) of white men were killed by law enforcement.

Not trying to minimize deaths of black men at the hands of police. Just interesting numbers.

My memory claims that the Hong Kong protests weren't anywhere near as violent as what we've been seeing here and that the government was the one that triggered the violence. 

They lasted nine months.  Thousands of injuries, thousands of arrests, allegations that the police were kidnapping and murdering protesters.  You had mobs of pro-government anti-protesters who were allegedly Triads, cops in plain clothes, and paid thugs assaulting the protesters.  It was basically a pitched battle in the streets between civilians and cops at points which is why there was international outrage and condemnation from the way China handled the protest.

 

I would encourage you to revisit

There is quite a bit of this going on in my social media circles but it’s typically from white liberal girls.   And I mean like the really really white girls.

This is %$#$ing ludicrous.

I mean. I literally can't stop laughing at how absurd that is.

 

??? Statements of support on social media are what's needed. I just can't. It's so superficial and dumb. My chest hurts.

FOUR QUESTIONS FOR THE DEMOCRATS, THE MEDIA AND BLACK LIVES MATTER.

 

 

The Democrat / Media / Left have managed to insert quite a few false premises into the national conversation thanks to the death of George Floyd in Minnesota. Before I agree to consider accepting them I have four questions that need answering

 

Question 1: Why does the Democrat/left BLM think it’s OK to lump all Police in with a bad cop in Minneapolis but objects to lumping all protesters in with rioters, looters & arsonists

 

Question 2: How is it that The Democrats / left / media insist that guns can only be trusted in the hands of the police and government when they also insist that police can’t be trusted to use force?

 

Question 3: Right now the big twitter trend is on the left is #DefundThePolice If the Democrat/left/BLM believe there should be no police then who should enforce the law? What happens when a person assaults or robs or murders someone. Who will they go for protection? Gangs? The army, The Mafia? Privates organization of Citizens? Or will they be expected to defend themselves (without arms if the left has their ways?

 

Question 4: Since the Media the left and blacklivesmatter insist that the statement “all lives matter” is beyond the pale can they tell us do

• Hispanic Lives matter
• Jewish Lives matter
• Arab lives matter
• Oriental lives matter
• White lives matter

If not why not?

 

I submit and suggest that pols, corporations and individuals considering supporting would be well advised to get answers to these questions before they do.

So everyone should stop their lives because morons were stupid enough to burn their own communities to the ground?  How about calling them out?

In any event, the difference between the Hong Kong thread and this thread are striking (which was my whole point) and the law and order folks can't claim this is all about rioting, violence against cops, or property destruction.  I believe the participants on this board have more sympathy for the citizens of Hong Kong than they do for their fellow Americans marching in streets and I think that has to do with the governments being protested and general views that BLM, police brutality, inequality, and injustice are a media creation.

 

I love getting lectures on racism by a person with an avatar of a white person wearing Indian "war paint".

What will happen when the wild mob start climbing over the fence at the White House? Lot of talk on Twitter.
