Race in America - Riots Explode in Chicago

[Typical Lax Dad]

[6ftstick]

To all the TDS folks in the clown car that doubted the story about looters and Chicagos Ronald McDonald House.

Just saw it confirmed by A Chicago Tribune reporter.

Parents couldn't get to their sick children in the hospital next door.

Hope all you enablers feel good about yourselves.

Biden Harris—Make America like Chicago

DEFUND THE POLICE

[cradleandshoot]

Amir Starks - 19, Nazier McFadden - 21 both shot dead in their car parked in a gas station on West Main St in Rochester NY... Narry a word about their deaths from the folks at SBLM. The sad truth is... Some Black Lives Matter, other black lives... not so much if there is no political capital to be made. There were a number of witnesses to this shooting. The police report that no one there is cooperating with the investigation. No snitch in action one more time. SBLM for sure.

There have been year to date 206 (at least) homicides in Baltimore.

Not a Baltimore Fanlax Dem could name even one victim.

But they can all tell you every last thing about George Floyd and tell you that the police are corrupt.

That is why the name of the organization is a croc. I call them Some Black Lives Matter because it is much closer to the truth of who they are.

Given the hypocrisy of BLM, that is sadly very true. SBLM would better define who they are.

Funny how Cradle is suddenly so concerned about black lives and condemns BLM. But he won't condemn the continued "war on drugs" sham and his Republican party's refusal to decriminalize drugs. As we all know decriminalization would end all street gangs and stop all black on black crime. His refusal to condemn police crimes and his refusal to demand the real social reforms that would end all these troubles show his hypocrisy and prove that he does not give a shttt about blacks.

Someone tell him that because as we all know, somehow, he has me on "ignore".

And its another good things sick kids and their families don't matter either.

You need better news sources.

You posted a link to a Newsweek article ... a rag that recently published a racist birther op-ed against Kamala Harris.

The other story you linked to was from the NY Post, a Murdoch trash bin.

You are polluting your mind with garbage. Respectfully suggest you read more enlightened news sources.

So much easier to pretend the things YOU'VE enabled and encouraged "never happened."

Keeps you comfortable in your beliefs.

The political utility of violence: BLM and what happened at Ronald McDonald House in Chicago

By JOHN KASS
CHICAGO TRIBUNE |
AUG 15, 2020 AT 5:00 AM

While much of the focus has been on rationalizations for the looting, the violence did some horrible things to innocent human beings.

Like the parents of seriously ill children at the Ronald McDonald House in Chicago. It is a place of sanctuary and peace for families, a place to sleep and rest as they take turns at the hospital bedsides of their seriously ill children.

What happened was disgusting.

As looters raged early Monday morning, a group with hammers attacked the Ronald McDonald House, smashing windows to pieces, smashing doors.

If you’ve ever had a child in the hospital, you know the feeling of fear and panic building inside of you.
And add to that looting mobs that prevent you reaching your child’s bedside or getting a much-needed few hours’ sleep. And later you hear the rationalizations of a political actor telling you that history works that way.

So what you guys are saying is: you'd support Black Lives Matter if they were, instead, called "the Helpful Organization"??

Your problem is with the name, not the mission?

That's a pretty weird complaint, don't you think?

[DMac]

The way I see it, only some black lives matter to BLM. Specifically the one's who are killed by white cops.
Meanwhile, I don't seem to hear much about how they care about these black lives.

And you'd be right. That's the ENTIRE reason the organization was started.

To my eyes, people are intentionally playing games here. No, surprisingly, BLM isn't going to tackle every single problem facing America's black community. Neither is the NAACP, for that matter. Yet no one is yelling at them for "doing it wrong".

No one plays this game with any other non-profit organization.

Or have any of you lost your minds because March of Dimes isn't doing anything to save the American dime?

The discussion is being had, just not in the right places. I often go to a black friends church, he is an associate pastor. I pick and chose when I go....they enjoy being in church a bit longer, like hours...and one of the only white people getting up to leave early ain't gonna look too good. Although,he told me don't worry, man I don't like being there all that time either on most days.

IMO, this is where BHO really missed a huge opportunity, as do most leaders that caught up in the BS of everything else.

BLM would be wise to blow up their current leadership team and adopt a more unified, in-touch leadership team. I also believe that a singular message from this new leadership team would go a very long way, it goes something like this.....

"We forgive you", then allow the healing to further begin.

While that would be noble, forgiveness is typically provided after an apology is presented first. Whether that apology has been provided or not, the BLM folks don't believe it has.

I respectfully disagree 100%. The whole purpose of forgiveness is to release the pain and burden on oneself, regardless of the one that has hurt you, because the pain is often only felt by the one that has suffered. Certainly , an apology is the perfect time to reciprocate, but never required.

"Your problem is with the name, not the mission?"

That is not a weird complaint. My problem is with a name that misrepresents their mission. Two young black kids were shot dead in their car in a gas station parking lot in Rochester NY. Should it not bother me a Fan that not a single SBLM representative said a damn thing about it? Break down their own organizations name... Black Lives Matter. Does that mean what it says... BLACK LIVES MATTER? No it does not. Their mission has nothing to do with their name. If their mission has nothing to do with their name, why does that not bother you a Fan? It should bother anybody who is ticked off that 2 young black youths were gunned down in their car. I am ticked off these two young men were murdered, why are the SBLM people not livid about it? They effing should be. If they were who they said they were they would be concerned about ALL BLACK LIVES, not just the ones taken by the police. If they are going to stand up for the black people murdered by the police why would they not be a voice for all black lives period. They have the power to do so. Explain to me a Fan why no snitch comes in to the equation? There were numerous witnesses to the murder of these two young black men. Oddly, no one will tell the police what they saw that night. No snitch, that is the rule. Tell me again how BLACK LIVES MATTER If people can witness a murder and effing say nothing. It means what I said... Some Black Lives Matter, other black lives just are not as important. That is a god damn embarrassment to me as a member of the human race.

What apology are u referring to and do I apologize to the organization or the people in the street?

And, " BLM folks don't believe it has"... You know this how?

Do the BLM forgive you or the United States Government or the US Institutions? I have no idea why you take it personally. It’s strange.
