    The left needs a new martyr

    The days of George "overdose " Floyd are getting to be too played out to be effective. To prove my point have you had the name of your favorite syrup bottle changed lately?

    What will be the next card in the deck that liberals will play to created victimhood?

    Another George Floyd ?
    A new pandemic ?
    Another Crayon Martin type incident ?

    Thoughts ?

    Interesting as it could easily be Americans. Do you read, Cotton1, Race is a social construct, is there any need to bring up your bigotry regarding victims. There is an interesting history in cotton production too - see down. But I'm reading 'Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century' by Jessica Bruder and find it amazing in a land of plenty. We could say world but any view of the earth would be tragic in many areas - our border for instance. Do you ever wonder what God thinks as they look down on the world? If you are in the learning mode read 'Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents' by Isabel Wilkerson. Caste too is a social construct but it is a powerful one like skin color. Your post is an example of caste thinking.

    I and most conservatives are not without desire to help people. But that is not what this "movement " is doing.
    Transitioning 6 years olds going through a phase is not help.
    Destroying small businesses in the name of "everyone must be 100% safe at all times" is neither help nor safe.
    Allowing nightly chaos in inner city neighborhoods for an entire summer helped no one. As evidence more young black lives were lost than usual and usual is too damn many.
    Cancelling those who think different , slanted SM and half truth "news" don't help the people.
    Inviting foreigners into our country and then creating the current border mess is not helping them or anyone else
    Nurses must vaccinate but Hatians aren't even tested sends a very unhelpful mixed message.

    And BTW, in general, our poor are the richest poor on the planet so maybe the toxicity should be aimed at the terrorist, child soldier takers, socialist mightmares around the globe?

    It will not be a person of color killed by the greatest threat to persons of color today. That I know.

    I have to agree sort of here. One side needs martyrs while the other side need boogymen to scare people.
    One side uses percieved oppression while the other side says fear this..............

    Seems to me that side is the same side. Their boogeyman was and remains Trump.

    Well we know it wont be some Asian attacked by Black Leftists. We know it wont be Senior Citizen Trump Supporters or any other Trump supporter for that matter. We know it wont be some Republican attacked by leftists. Nor some Conservative, Libertarian, Jewish, Constitutionalist attacked by leftists.


    Does that Narrow it down any?
