B-Man Posted July 9, 2020 Author Posted July 9, 2020 IT IS A RIDDLE WRAPPED IN A MYSTERY INSIDE AN ENIGMA; BUT PERHAPS THERE IS A KEY: Exhausted cities face another challenge: a surge in violence. NEW YORK (AP) — Still reeling from the coronavirus pandemic and street protests over the police killing of George Floyd, exhausted cities around the nation are facing yet another challenge: a surge in shootings that has left dozens dead, including young children. The spike defies easy explanation, experts say, pointing to the toxic mix of issues facing America in 2020: an unemployment rate not seen in a generation, a pandemic that has killed more than 130,000 people, stay-at-home orders, rising anger over police brutality, intense stress, even the weather.

B-Man Posted July 10, 2020 Author Posted July 10, 2020 BLM is simply a group meant to promote far leftist groups with a brilliant name that if you say you're against them, you are inherently racist. This is why we should now refer to the group as BLM and the movement, which I am all for, as Black Lives Matter. 2

As I said before, whoever came up with the Black Lives Matter name is a marketing genius. People cannot (will not) differentiate. 1 1

Please, someone tell me what's so offensive about that sign. She must have taken her training on whiteness to heart. She's upset because white people should NOT be made to feel safe or comfortable. It just reeks of privilege to expect those things. Edited July 10, 2020 by LB3

Read the twitter thread, it was simply appalling. I did read it a bit. Some are calling it “beautiful”! I assume there are other departments that work in that building. They have zero respect for public or private property. Their mothers must be so proud of them.
