Are you seriously that clueless on how it can look to others? Its not ok and a take off of the salute. Be real. You are a moron for thinking its ok to attack people and to use a salute like that and force others but physical intimidation. For one racial group to try to impose power over another is very concerning. |
No one deserves it. All you can do is stay calm or get up and walk away. In the one video she couldn't do anything and that should be consider assault as they were in her face blocking her from leaving. In other videos, at least people could walk away. What concerned me was how the restaurants did nothing to help their customers. |
You let that genie out of the bottle. These are your tactics and people. |
If you read the thread, it makes clear that a Black protest leader urged the White protesters in their group to come to the front to harass the diners. Now that it’s blown up, BLM supporters are claiming these were just clueless White kids being a nuisance or even Trump supporters trying to create bad publicity. If only. I don’t think a White diner being harassed to offer up her solidarity compared to another Black man getting shot by police, but these tactics by spoiled, aggressive youths - even if their behavior is fueled by a mix of anger about police brutality and utter uncertainty as to their own futures - will benefit anyone other Trump, especially when most Democrats in senior positions won’t criticize their behavior. We are so screwed. |

So much for social distancing.

I know exactly what it looks like. It looks like your BLM protesters are really upping their game and starting to branch out into your private spaces. Enjoy! |
No. Elected and appointed officials whose decisions affect millions can be confronted by taxpayers. Nobodies (like me) should be left alone. |
| they're not just harassing her and other diners, they're breaking the 6-feet social distancing rule while they're screaming at them. If they're ill, their masks aren't going to help much in blocking covid droplets. |

Here is a different video from Mezcalaro.
https://twitter.com/sethweathers/status/1298240378273959939 The sad thing is the pathetic doughboy who goes along with it. |
that’s not what the clip shows - the black girl tries to stop them. this is dumb white kids. |
| What a bunch of dumba$$es. Trump is going to retweet this small group of idiots and they will have harmed blm for no reason. I’d be pissed if I were that woman re: the shouting/personal space intrusion, given the incredibly high rate of infection for chorus members. |
The footage I saw, they are invading peoples personal space and with Covid endangering lives. The person they are spittling on could be high risk, live with an elderly or simply have an unpredictable response. How is this not a biological material assault, like spitting on someone? |
Not in the Mezcalero clip. And she is not wearing a mask right up in their face. |
| I guess they want to hand the election to Trump with that behavior. |
| Pendulum is starting to tip on BLM. It's tactics have been this way from the beginning but the fact that people are even noticing these ploys now shows that it is losing steam. This woman in the video is not a BLM convert now, she is mad. BLM lost more sympathy with this video than whatever good they thought their bigotry would achieve there. Anyway, swim away from the sinking vessel, the vacuum will consume everything around it. |
