    Trump should hire you as a public relations representative. You cover for him very well. Good job.

    It's hard to separate the two when the cities are burning.

    That's the point. There is no outrage or incessant media coverage when cops shoot whites.

    What a silly response. As I said, if you want to sound smarter, turn on the local news in the city that is being looted. Where in the hell did I say all the protesters were black. Instead of putting words in my mouth, do your research and watch blacks, whites, and everything in between, loot a Post Office.

    I disagree. If you watch the protests during the day, you will see peaceful organizations. It isn't until nightfall that the rioting begins. We have seen case after case where protesters are pleading with rioters to stop. That they are hijacking their protest.

    I see she doesn't mention rocks or bricks. Oh, never mind, they're already there.

    It's the only one I've seen.
    Why would anybody want media attention to looting if there were no looting?

    Because this ain't a murder yet for 1. Then the plural indicates multiple deaths.. it's called clarifying.

    Like i said, we will condemn it when it's proven as a murder. Regardless what you think the video isn't conclusive.. i imagine you'll explode at that and start the name calling.

    I find results that favor the Left in Google Searches fairly often.

    My results differed completely. Let me try again: This time I got several hits on Google that show Republicans that have denounced the Floyd killing.

    Not in the least! Define antifa! Show anybody in any of the protests, any webpage, any writting.... anything whatsoever.... that would identify looting with this... "antifa" you speak of.

    If this is a made up accusation of a made up group ... and you are just repeating what you heard on Fox (as the asterisk President* is and the proven liar at the DoJ is), then you're in trouble. Argumentatively speaking, of course. You might have preferred to not get into this debate. But if you have something solid, let's see it.

    So you don't know what these protests are about. That's also called clarifying. And if it's true you don't know, I want to know why you don't know. I usually check Fox's perspective whenever there are significant events. Sometimes it's interesting to know what they're telling their viewers. And I've been paying particular attention to Fox and their wingnut echo-chamber the last few days. Not 24/7 like you probably do, but a long hard look. And, it appears to me, that the absence of information is particularly astounding. I suspect they've been telling their viewers that all this is only about Floyd. Ignore everything else that has happened in the last few weeks. Is my suspicion correct?

    I don't know, i don't have cable and therefore don't watch fox.

    What i know is that the medical examiner ruled it a homicide but that his death was not caused by a lack of oxygen and his neck was not injured. At least that's the last i heard. When all the facts come out and they find the officer guilty of murder, then i will condemn him as a murderer. Pretty simple really.
    Innocent until proven guilty..

    For this to be a murder the officer needs to have meant to kill him.. apart from that, manslaughter.

    I do not know enough to condemn him as a murderer and neither do you..

    I'll admit, it does look very bad on film and there is a high likelihood you are right. But the threshold of condemnation is much higher that "high likelihood "


    If you see this view as anything other than rational, then i can't help you and we have nothing more to talk about, maybe try smashing some windows and steal a tv or two.

    Which makes zero difference to anything I have said.

    There is not much we can discuss if you don't even know what these protests are about. Thanks anyway.

    This is all out of proportion. Incidents like this are a tiny fraction of the incidents of black on black crime. But no political advantage can be gained from black on black on black crimes/murders.

    What gets me is the cheering and enthusiasm that goes into the vandalism of places like the WW II Memorial in Washington and St. Patrick’s Church in NY, the most famous Catholic church in America.

    Actually, he's cowering in his bunker, like the pathetic little bitch he's always been. I wonder if Eva - excuse me, Melania - remembered the cyanide capsules?

    It took one SS agent to get Bunker Baby to the safe place...it took 24 to drag his fat ass out of it.
    "Come on fellas! Grab some flab and help!"
    "No, damn it! He ****ing bit me!"

    If the Democratic mayors and governors really are against the burning and looting, why are they not stopping it?
