I will say, I'm glad I'm white and live in OC.

Thoughts and prayers for Lou.

To refute your claim that he wasn't a piece of shit.  I'll leave the final determination up to the people whose lives he negatively impacted but he wasn't a contributing member of society.

I’m not saying he wasn’t a piece of shit. I’m saying it’s not why he was detained and it’s not why he was killed and to bring it up is just deflection from the event of the day

do black lives REALLY matter to black lives?

I don't disagree.

There is also merit to everyone being quarantined and kind of a "fuck this" mentality. And you are right that it seemed to come to light after the fact....or what was portrayed on the media. There was an uprising with her death, but you are right that it didn't gain national traction until the Floyd situation.

you combine his death where it looked like the officers didn't have an ounce of care in the world, with the lockdown orders and people's frustrations with not being allowed to live normally, no school, lost jobs, and can't go anywhere, and you've suddenly got a perfect storm of social circumstances.

I think it's a fair question to ask (what has BLM contributed). Besides raising awareness, making t-shirts, painting street messages, and encouraging athletes to kneel, can anyone point to something specific that BLM has done?

[angelinkc]

BLM has simply gained corporate and social acceptance of blacks being black.

It is pretty hilarious how many leftist support these Marxist  thugs. Dems declare racism a virus while attempting to  argue we are in the largest pandemic in history. There is at least some truth to corona but leftist shouldn't be shocked people are skeptical. According to Dems, we can solve America's problems if everyone becomes a Marxist, destroys property, and wears a mask. 

Don't be shocked when the big orange asshole is re elected.

Seattle CHOP shooting suspect identified, charged in death of Horace Lorenzo Anderson, 19

An 18-year-old Washington man is wanted on a first-degree murder charge in connection with the shooting death of another teen in Seattle's former Capitol Hill Organized Protest (CHOP) zone.

According to investigators, police identified Marcel Levon Long as the suspect within a day of the June 20 slaying, but they have not tracked him down. He is believed to have fled the state, according to the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office.

“Extremely high quality” surveillance video of the scene near Cal Anderson Park, close to the Seattle Police Department’s temporarily abandoned East Precinct building, allegedly shows Long pull a handgun after a conversation with 19-year-old Horace Lorenzo Anderson.

Anderson then tries to leave, investigators said. Other people in the CHOP, the heart of the city's protests, tried to intervene, but Long kept following Anderson.

Portland mayor slams protesters after they try to light precinct on fire and trap cops inside

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler Thursday evening condemned the actions of rioters who attempted to set fire to a police precinct and blocked the exits while officers were inside.

“When you commit arson with an accelerant in an attempt to burn down a building that is occupied by people who you have intentionally trapped inside, you are not demonstrating, you are attempting to commit murder," Wheeler said in a news conference with Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell.

"Don’t think for a moment that you are if you are participating in this activity, you are not being a prop for the reelection campaign of Donald Trump — because you absolutely are," he said. "You are creating the B-roll film that will be used in ads nationally to help Donald Trump during this campaign. If you don’t want to be part of that, then don’t show up.”

 

But it's only graffiti, right?
