    Ambulances have this loud thing they use and these flashing things that get quite a bit of attention from some distance away.

    Probably couldn't hear it over the shouts of "we want dead cops" though. Maybe.

    Stop making excuses for what is obviously inexcusable.

    "I'd like to put BLM on the spot and ask them exactly what they want" ~ I've been talking politics for decades. No post in HISTORY brings more WOW than this one. My mind is so blown.

    They shoot first and claim "castle doctrine" or "he was coming right at me" later.

    So yea, you are kind of correct.

    Funny. Last time they were changing "Don't shoot". Are you spreading a lie? Do you have video of them changing "we want dead cops"? Or are you just using lies to push your political agenda?

    And when you supply some evidence that the BLM protestors specifically targeted this ambulance, and intentionally impeded it's progress, you'd have a point.

    That a medical emergency occurred during a protest march isn't really the partisan issue that you wish it to be..

    The colonists who fought the Revolutionary War might disagree with that opinion.

    It sounds like a propaganda story to me to make the protesters look bad. I'm sure that there will be more fake stories as this one in the days ahead.

    Intent isn't the issue. Lawless thuggery is.

    Easy killa. I was just pointing out that it was stated that "something like that would never happen." Yet it did.

    Those colonists accepted responsibility for their actions.

    BLM won't.

    Fake story. Conservatives are sick people...

    "According to that officer, there were no child deaths at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital on the night the incident purportedly took place. Moreover, the officer stated that when two critically ill individuals (a woman and a child) required transport to the hospital during the protest in question, police officers and protesters quickly cleared the road, and neither patient was delayed or denied passage. Police "double-checked" to ensure the story was false and were unable to find any incidents even remotely similar to the tale presented here."

    Reason #1 why AmericanNationalist not only thinks that "protesting" is A: Useless, and B: Not even a real protest. A protest by definition, a petition is a SPECIFIC complaint, demand or even an argument that "X" should be done about "Y". Now, tell me what the losers throughout history who carried signs ever changed?

    Nothing, they just make this country look bad, like the entire country is some kind of ghetto. By comparison, as much as I think the Feminists were misguided, they actually took their complaints to the macho people in charge and got it DONE. So-called "protesters" could learn a lot from Gloria Steinem, MLK, etc.

    Your title is a lie. They did not block any ambulances from getting around.

    OK, point well taken. Let me rephrase that; Would you like some delicious Wisconsin cheese with your crisp, full bodied, yet fruity Wisconsin made wine from the Cedar Creek Winery?

    Where did it say in the article that BLM did ANYTHING to help the family? Did they get a permit to block a bridge? If the child had died because they clogged the bridge, would any responsibility lie with them? I definitely think so. They blocked the Manhattan bound side of the Brooklyn Bridge last year in New York under stupid de Blasio.People were NOT happy with BLM or him. If it is a major thoroughfare where emergency vehicles must pass, they need to be forcibly removed. It is totally disgusting. They are making potential sympathizers hate them, and rightly so.

    In a law abiding country, there are legal channels to go through in order to do that. You must get a permit from the city and they tell you where you are allowed your demonstration. You just don't take it upon yourself to decide that you are going to shut down the George Washington Bridge or Brooklyn Bridge. In this case they shut down a well traveled bridge that emergency vehicles use and you can't do that. These people must go...

    We know California is weird and has gone off the deep end, but the rest of the US has laws to live by. If it had been your kid who was terribly sick and they were blocking YOUR access to a hospital, I would hope you would be singing a different tune...because you could have politely asked them to move, and they wouldn't have. They would have let your kid die.
