    Trump is lying. "Research backs it up..." Massive eye roll! Nothing to see here. Can’t believe this person places her party ahead of citizens. Including black businesses and neighborhoods that are still smoldering for the past 6 months.

    "Fiery but mostly peaceful", right? ROFL!!! Idiots.

    Michelle Obama is such a hateful, divisive, race-baiting b*tch. Much like her husband.

    Thanks for letting me watch Mrs. Obama... every opportunity appreciated..

    And you are the one peddling the fake news, my friend... she's 100% correct that most protests have been peaceful...

    Research DOES back it up, unless you want to argue 93% isn't "most"?

    Miss those guys!

    Wonder how the violence of today compares with that of the civil rights and anti war era of LBJ's administration. He appeared on national TV to address America about it.

    Is it worse today than back then?

    She is living in a posh community on Martha's Vineyard. There are no violent protests around her and never could be. Since we are the plebes and do not count as people to elites like Michelle, there can be no violence against us. Trump should use Michele's words when the states coming begging for emergency funds to rebuild their cratered and burned inner cities..... Michele Obama said there was no violence, therefor I cannot in good faith give you money to repair damage done by the non-violence.

    It feels like Democratic elites are in a physical war with the American people. This statement by Michele is like the leaflet campaigns we used against the Japanese interspersed between the bombing runs.

    I always liked Michele until this year. I can now see that she is a self-centered amoral actor.

    Most Covid cases aren't fatal, so aren't liberals pushing to end tyrannical shutdowns?

    Most cops are peaceful
    Most white supremacists are peaceful
    Most KKK members are peaceful
    Most racists are peaceful, especially considering all of white America is racist

    Combined, all of the above have done less damage and have committed less acts of violence than the peaceful protesters Mooch refers to. Even the left's environmental groups aren't peaceful. One can argue that Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, St Louis and New Orleans are mostly peaceful, as in someone isn't being murdered every second of every day, but the murder numbers speak for themselves. I guess the left can then argue that most people in those cities haven't been murdered or committed one.

    So if you're going to defend 'most,' then be consistent and defend all 'mosts.'

    Michelle is going to be in Major Trouble the next time she runs for President.

    This will be a dealbreaker and nobody is going to vote for her.

    As far as 2020, what is she running for? Exactly?


    Also, the YouTube Link (used in the OP) is to a site called "Funny Democrats".

    The video has barely 100 views (and it clearly hasn't "gone viral").

    Where do people even find these things?

    Also, the video is clearly an Opinion Piece (since it juxtaposes Mrs. Obama's Statement with Violent Images) and a post of this nature doesn't even belong in Current Events.

    I would suggest PO&B, or even Humor and Satire (since you are linking to a YT site called "Funny Democrats").

    You're Welcome...:salute:

    By definition, she is right. Protests are not violent. Riots are.

    WATCH: Michelle Obama says that protests aren't violent and Trump is lying about it.

    I wonder if she has an explanation for the videos.

    4 of the 50 most dangerous cities in the world are Detroit, New Orleans, St Louis and Baltimore. Chicago didn't make the cut.

    The mayor of Birmingham is a democrat, a black democrat.

    Republican cities don't exist (towns maybe, not cities). That's like blaming every crazy hick meth addict event on Repub governments just because they're the rural default.

    Here's another softball question:

    How much arson, looting, vandalism, and riots have been caused by the KKK in 2020, and how does that stack up to the BLM for the same year?
