Black Lives Matter Plaza

[FindersKeepers]

The reaction to the death of Floyd has gone from tragic and unfortunate to downright silly. On Tuesday, Inversigation Discovery blacked out for about 5 minutes wit this ridiculous tribute to George Floyd. What in the $#@!?

Most people are sheeple. They're bandwagon riders and they just have to "join up." What happened to Floyd was awful, but it was really a local issue, and the guy who did it has been charged with Murder 2. People just don't think for themselves, and the media takes advantage of that.

Now, I totally support teaching de-escalation tactics to our law enforcement officers, which might help avoid situations similar to the Floyd incident, but at some point, people have to understand that a good number of criminals are violent and the police might have to use deadly force.

For the second time in a decade, the anti-officer sentiment is putting cops in danger, because brainwashed morons fall for the media's narrative. Despite the stats, we have members of this very forum who think there's systemic racism in the treatment of suspects. It's the media's fault, and now we're seeing the fallout from the idiocy.

All these empty corporate gestures are amusing though. We're with you in solidarity! Well, no, we won't be rebuilding our stores in the neighborhoods you $#@!es burned down but...hey, we'll always have Blackout Tuesday. Fight the Power!

DC Mayor Bowser has "Black Lives Matter" painted on street leading to White House

Kind of neat but I don't think escalating things with Trump is going to have a good outcome.

Virtue signaling to distract from the fact the mayor has lost control.

Like BLM trending in 2016 and now 2020? Coincidence?

Why isn't this painted on the street approaching the Minneapolis State House?

Should be replaced these days with Representation without Taxation.

She's clueless.

I love the protests. It is the American way. I have no problem with what she did - it is a form of protest.

The riots - no.

It's not protest, it's just virtue signaling by a politician who has nothing else to offer.

Agree, though, protests, yes! Riots, no.

Wuhan virus. social distancing. social gathering = stupid. Isn't that what the Democrats and liberal media has been pitching? Yes.
