Classic projection. The harder some folks try the more obvious it is.

-Talk about performing a coup, from a place of less than 0 power.


These people are so ####ing stupid it actually offends me and I hope all of them end up getting charged for the criminal occupation of Ottawa.
Good list.

I’d add using children as human shields from police.

Claiming you won’t leave until the government is overthrown.

Claiming you’re non-violent then using violence.

I’m sure the keen minds here could create a list of a hundred without difficulty.

Wow, thank you. The other guy didn't reply, as he did when he asked about the rightwing motivations behind these protests. Good on ya.

I'm not seeing any buildings and/or churches burned down friend.

Again, “media is the enemy” is a key piece of this whole thing. This isn’t a subset, this is the mentality of the group.

Someone might have been informed about the arson. Churches and buildings were not burned down. Are you still of the opinion that BLM did not result in violence and riots though?

But why don't we just sit and talk with these people and stop being divisive?

We have relatively sane posters on this board who have fallen hook, line and sinker for the media is out to get us talk from the far right.

I'm not of an opinion, I was asking someone who said that to show it.

Considering it was country wide that's insanely minimum, the BLM protests sure get a lot of play here. No doubt you had to search that out. What I find interesting is you had an opinion than google'd it to find out.

Also, are you being a serious person or trolling just for fun this time? One answer will get a reply, the other won't.

When you're against the media, that's when you know your goal isn't actually to protest any more. Real protests want as much media attention as they can attract.

These constant comparisons between protests are damn annoying (on both sides) and are arguments I'd hear from a 7 year old... "He did it first"

I exclude comparisons of police/government actions from the above statement.

To be fair they've complained about media coverage too.

Guys, I'm starting to think they're just a bunch of entitled whiny babies

I'm trying to engage in serious discourse this morning. I took to google not to re-affirm my opinion on the events of BLM but to find an article to share as proof because if I came to the table and replied to your post without providing credible details of the rioting and looting it would be without merit

Considering your previous posts, I don't believe you.

this would only be effective if they could swap out the "bee sting venom" (i have no clue what it's actually called) with vaccine. 8 stings and you're half way to being double vaxxed!
