They are doing it to be trendy and fit in. There have been huge calls for the white people to stand up and protest. |
I am an educated black woman who is tired of white folks using black folks for their agenda and letting black folks take the blame! Of course there are many races out there but this is a valid topic and needs to be discussed, I don't know any black folks right now who are talking in their community about the number of whites who are suddenly down for the cause! If legit fine, but don't burn shit down and blame me! Also, if you think that ANTIFAR is down with black folks you got a shock coming to you. Did you actually read the article, get woke! |
Protest and anarchy are 2 different things, and when I don't know your agenda because you hide being #BLM signs and banners, I don't know who you are and what you really believe in! Hold up your signs along with mine, show your faces and let me decide for myself! If there were that many woke white folk out there we wouldn't have so much racism in the first place! Some of these folks are not our friends. Grateful for those that are! |
| Anarchists. They’re appropriating BLM and it’s disgusting on every level. |
| Are these white people who are rioting progressives, or are they white nationalists/nazis? Because I keep reading they are actually trump supporters, that are causing trouble to make progressives look bad. |
Are anarchists trump supporters? |
Wait what? What would you have him do? Just stand aside and let all cities burn? For how long? And to what end? |
There all up in the mix and that is now the problem because we don't know who is who, no one is holding up their signs to say who they are! There are some ninja dressed ones who I;m particulary suspicious of as they have everything covered and dress all in black, even their hair! |
You know, I might agree with you, but I am not sure. Try posting in English so you can be understood. |
I suspect there are both sides represented - white supremacist trump supporters and left wing radicals, both of which hope to benefit from the chaos. In my opinion, neither side represents the African-Americans who have been mistreated by the law enforcement establishment or the political elites in this country. In my opinion, both of these groups should be suppressed and imprisoned when they take over a legit social grievance and turn it opportunistically into an opportunity to commit mayhem. I have zero respect for these people. |
I have way too many friends going out of their ways to justify rioting and looting in days 1-3 and then spin around and not like it based on who is doing it. have the guts to support a cause and not violent extreme methods, by anyone.

For starters: not teargas peaceful protesters to get them out of his way so that he can walk to a church for a photo op because he's mad that people called him Bunker Boy. |
Lafeyette Square belongs to the federal government, and I don't believe the protestors had a permit? Correct me if I'm wrong. |
Lafayette Square is actually a Federal Park. The WaPo is always reporting about this in more 'normal' times because there is some other 'protester' who is always sprinkling marijuana seeds there who occasionally gets arrested by the Park Police. MPD do not patrol Lafayette Square as the laws are 'different'. Typically you see USPP and Secret Service there. Marijuana still illegal on federal land Even though legalization of marijuana is expected to take effect Thursday in the District, parts of D.C. are still under federal jurisdiction. National parks, military property and other land controlled by the federal government totals about 18 square miles in the District, 29 percent of the city's total land area. |
