I think you are right. We should give this some time I mean, let's not "rush to justice," am I right? Better to conduct a full investigation first. |

I think it was the night before the election, Trevor Noah did a satirical show about the apocalypse for the US if Trump was elected. As the election for 2020 grows closer, more and more of the things that he suggested are actually happening. Ugh. We need him out.

A couple of years ago not long after the idiot took office a white nationalist was going to give a talk on the campus of UC Berkeley.
Outside the building where the guy was going to give a talk there were a bunch of students protesting peacefully holding signs. The local TV news was there filming the whole thing.
Then literally out of nowhere a bunch of individuals dressed from head to toe in all black appeared and all hell broke loose. This group immediately started destroying stuff and took it off campus out onto the streets campus. And the whole time a camera crew is filming this.
When people talk about the protest and how it turned destructive, they just talk about the students with very little said about this group that roll in turning a peaceful protest into a destructive near riot.
This group calls themselves the Black Anarchists.
This group did exactly the same type of thing to a Black Lives Matter protest earlier.
My thinking, if there were white guys destroying stuff in Minneapolis, then there are groups of individuals who see demonstrations a chance to destroy stuff and ultimately set a negative narrative about protesters. That’s not to say some of the peaceful protests don’t enjoy destroying stuff but if these Black Anarchists type groups are joining protests to push their own destructive agenda one has to wonder if rallies/protests would turn violent if these groups stayed away,

Reports are that they’ve fled the area. Yes. (I was being sarcastic about why protestors are getting arrested and murderers aren't.) Seems like a cell is pretty safe if they were so concerned about their safety! Hm. Unless cells aren't safe and incarceration is fucked up? |

Unless cells aren't safe and incarceration is fucked up? I’m not trying to be an asshole with you. Sorry if you took it that way. I’m pretty sure I’ll be logging off social media today. It’s only 9:48am and I’m irrational angry and my disgust for the “Americans” who’ve put us in our current state is overflowing. |

I have just felt the need to clarify my posts more often lately. Thank you.  |
