Blacks aren't the problem here.

It's "educated" whites thinking that they are entitled to speak for blacks that are the problem.

Yanno, I spent many a post harping on the fact that people of all outside interests were pretending to speak for Portlanders, but that no one was interested in what Portlanders had to say for themselves.

And it's the same reason WHY I posted the poll.

You think I don't know what the problem is?

I wasn't saying that you specifically weren't aware of the problem.


It's these little things that the polls and the media in general tend to miss when they're working so hard to push a narrative.

If you watch the news all day, you might get the idea that all blacks in the country want to see the police defunded when that couldn't be further from the truth.

I almost can't blame a lemming like Second's sockpuppet Marcos for believing that this is the case. The Legacy Media lies to him everyday and tells him that this is the truth.

Ok.

I misunderstood your intent.

I have a distrust of the media (working fist in glove with the Deep State) because of very clear examples I have where I was smacked in the face by the obvious fact that it was indisputably lying - and that was before "dead or alive! - smoke 'em out!". But for all the time I spend trying to figure out the difference between what I'm being told by the media and what's really going on, all I can glean are tidbits.

Then when you have the media pushing their narratives that people want to hear, and people being free to choose whatever news reduces their cognitive dissonance, it's inevitable you get droids on both sides. It's scary how little we're being told, and frustrating dealing with people who believe! hallelujah! in the righteousness of their side no matter what. But there it is.

Did you watch that full bodycam video of the Floyd incident yet?

It looks like an entirely different scene than they've been saying it was for months now. I honestly can't believe that YouTube hasn't pulled it entirely from the site and has chosen only to suppress it in the search results and keep it off the Trending page.

It's amazing that it's got over 4.5 million views. But even though that sounds like a lot, it really isn't when you consider how many people in our country alone have seen heavily edited versions of the video on the news since it happened.

There were numerous demonstrations all summer, and they're still going on.

The only riots are the ones started by the police, or Trump's brownshirt thugs. The patriotic people of BLM are peaceful, the Trumptards bring violence and murder. That's what they crave.

Portland mayor rips into rioters for ‘attempting to commit murder’

By Natalie O'Neill
August 7, 2020 | 3:32pm | Updated

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler tore into rioters who set a blaze at a police station while blocking exits, calling the violence an act of “attempted murder” — but that didn’t stop firebug protesters from coming back overnight.

“When you commit arson with an accelerant in an attempt to burn down a building that is occupied by people who you have intentionally trapped inside, you are not demonstrating, you are attempting to commit murder,” Wheeler fumed during a press conference Thursday. “I believe that city staff could have died last night. I cannot and I will not tolerate that.”

Wheeler was referring to a riot that erupted Wednesday night at the Portland Police Bureau’s East Precinct during the city’s 70th consecutive night of protests over police brutality, according to local FOX affiliate.

Along with setting the blaze, rioters allegedly shot fireworks at cops, broke doors and disabled security cameras as police declared a riot and unleashed tear gas, according to the station.

But despite Wheeler’s plea, protesters returned to the police station Thursday night, lit another fire in a trash can next to the building and tried to break into it, according to the Portland Police Bureau, which declared another riot.

During the mayhem, protesters threw bottles and rocks, injuring at least one officer, and damaged multiple police vehicles. The injured officer was “severely hurt” by a large rock that hit the cop’s shoulder, police said in a press release, which provided no further details.

Wheeler — a Democrat who was tear-gassed by federal officials as he stood with protesters several weeks ago — warned that violent protesters are helping President Trump spread the message that anarchists are running wild in Portland and other liberal cities.

“Don’t think for a moment that if you are participating in this activity, you are not being a prop for the re-election campaign of Donald Trump — because you absolutely are,” Wheeler said. “If you don’t want to be part of that, then don’t show up.”

The clashes between protesters and federal agents sent by Trump to guard the Mark O. Hatfield United States Courthouse became a national focal point last month.

MORE PEACEFUL LOOTING AND RIOTS

Chaos In Chicago: Bridges Raised To Prevent Gun-Toting Looters Getting Downtown

Hundreds of 'mostly peaceful protesters' swept through the Magnificent Mile and other parts of downtown Chicago early Monday, smashing windows, looting stores, confronting police and at one point exchanging gunfire with officers, authorities said.

As The Chicago Tribune reports, officers had stopped several people on Lake Street near Michigan Avenue when shots were fired from a passing car around 4:30 a.m., nearly five hours into the widespread vandalism, according to police spokesman Tom Ahern.

No officers were shot but a squad car was hit, he said. It was not known if anyone in the gunman’s car was shot.

Police made “a lot of arrests” and recovered at least one gun, officials said.

And that escalation, as Summit News' Paul Joseph Watson details, prompted Chicago authorities took the decision to raise all major bridges in an effort to prevent looters reaching the downtown area after a night of chaos.

Luxury department stores were ransacked as hundreds of looters caused mayhem in response to the police shooting of an armed suspect in Englewood.

Police sent to respond to the looting were physically attacked, prompting authorities to raise major bridges in order to keep more people out of the area.

“All bridges are being raised along the river throughout The Loop,” reports CBS Chicago. “Chicago’s Office of Emergency Management announced street closures throughout areas in the Magnificent Mile, Gold Coast and South Loop.”

Numerous bus and train services have also been suspended, while large areas of downtown Chicago are also closed.

Bridges were previously raised last month in an effort to keep Black Lives Matter protesters away from the business district, but the call to do so this time around appears to have come too late.

'Black Lives Matter'-Mob Demands White People Give Up Their Homes

Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News,

A video out of Seattle shows a mob of Black Lives Matter agitators harassing a homeowner and demanding that they give up their property in order to fix racism.

The clip shows a male demonstrator singling out one home and lecturing those inside about how they’re “living in a historically black neighborhood.”

He then accuses whites of buying land and homes from black people for below its market value and kicking out African-Americans.

Black Lives Matter mob demands White people move out of neighborhood and give their homes to black people. pic.twitter.com/K2ywb899zS
— Mark Dice (@MarkDice) August 14, 2020


“Do you know that? Because if you don’t, now you fucking do, now do something about it,” he adds, to which another protester responds by saying, “Open your wallet!”

He then accuses the homeowners of being complicit in “racist gentrification” while demanding they do something to fix the problem.

A masked female BLM agitator with a bullhorn then continues the tirade.

“Give us your house, give black people back their homes, you’re sitting there comfortably…I used to live in this neighborhood and my family was pushed out and you’re sitting up there having a good time with your other white friends.”

“Now we’re bringing it to your front door, so what the fuck do you plan to do about it?” asks the male protester as the mob continues to harass the homeowner.


The video ends with the homeowner apparently turning the lights off in a bid to avoid any further escalation.

The seizure of white-owned property has long been a primary goal of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Back in 2017, BLM leader Chanelle Helm issued a list of demands, one of which was that white people will their property to black people in order to prove they’re not racist.

“White [people] if you don’t have any descendants, will your property to a Black or Brown family,” she wrote.

“Preferably one that lives in generational poverty. … White [people] if you can afford to downsize give up the home you own to a Black or Brown family. Preferably a family from generational poverty. … White [people], re-budget your monthly so you can donate to Black funds for land purchasing.”

Chicago Shuts Down Its Business District Overnight This Weekend Due To Continued Riots And Looting

Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot desperately wants the world to believe that she has the situation in her city under control and that she doesn't need help from the federal government - nor would she ever need it from President Trump.

But while she puts that facade on during interviews and press conferences with national media, the reality of constant looting, rioting and crime in Chicago continues to unfold; as do its consequences.

For example, this weekend, the city will shut down its Central Business District overnight, effective at 9PM each night. The decision comes "in the wake of looting and unrest downtown, on the Magnificent Mile, and in Streeterville, River North, and the area near North and Sheffield avenues," according to CBS Chicago.

KIKI: Holy mother of god. These people are serious.


Nah. In THIS clip, they were just making noise and mouthing off. If they had been serious, they would have brought guns to force the the issue. But yeah ... they really do believe what they're shouting.

So the former residents might want to ask themselves: WHY was the neighborhood at below-market value? Was it because the properties had been allowed to run down? Was it because of high crime? Seems like the residents could have done something about both. SIX's experience shows you don't need a lot of money to make fundamental and cosmetic repairs to a home, and a neighborhood watch program might have done something about the crime. Plus, neighbors know which houses cause trouble. A little neighborly chat might have helped.

The only situation that I can see that does NOT land in the former residents' laps is if the houses were all repoed by the banks and then handled as rentals. That would have been from the 2008 subprime mortgage collapse. THANK YOU OBAMA FOR BAILING OUT THE BANKS, NOT THE HOMEOWNERS!

SO just cross posting all things about riots

Quote:

Videos have circulated today showing a scene the mainstream media will continue to ignore: a white man being beaten unconscious, lying in the middle of a Portland street bleeding from his head, while a mob ransacks his car and terrorizes others watching. Just moments before the assault, the man protected a trans woman from the BLM mob, according to journalist Andy Ngo.

The altercation with the anarchist mob forced the man to crash his truck. He was then removed and badly beaten until he passed out.

Moments before the beating, the man was seen on tape protecting a trans woman from the mob as they threatened her.

It looks like the person robbed and beaten by BLM protesters in downtown Portland tonight is a trans woman. She pleads for her backpack back. Her longboard was also stolen. She may be transient. The man who tried to protect her was later beaten himself & kicked unconscious. pic.twitter.com/uNrgCkevUt

A leftist mob would theoretically want to protect a trans woman but that was not the case. The man, who sustained very serious injuries, had to defend her from the criminals.

The main suspect, seen beating the man and kicking him in the head, was identified by The Post Millennial.

[i].@TPostMillennial is reporting that the BLM “security” filmed beating the Portland driver unconscious is Marquise “Keese” Lee Love. He has not been accused or charged by police. Love has a criminal history that includes charges of domestic violence. #BLMhttps://t.co/SxlZAIpRFy

“Do you know that? Because if you don’t, now you fucking do, now do something about it,” he adds, to which another protester responds by saying, “Open your wallet!”

He then accuses the homeowners of being complicit in “racist gentrification” while demanding they do something to fix the problem.

A masked female BLM agitator with a bullhorn then continues the tirade.

“Give us your house, give black people back their homes, you’re sitting there comfortably…I used to live in this neighborhood and my family was pushed out and you’re sitting up there having a good time with your other white friends.”

“Now we’re bringing it to your front door, so what the fuck do you plan to do about it?” asks the male protester as the mob continues to harass the homeowner.


The seizure of white-owned property has long been a primary goal of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Back in 2017, BLM leader Chanelle Helm issued a list of demands, one of which was that white people will their property to black people in order to prove they’re not racist.

“White [people] if you don’t have any descendants, will your property to a Black or Brown family,” she wrote.

“Preferably one that lives in generational poverty. … White [people] if you can afford to downsize give up the home you own to a Black or Brown family. Preferably a family from generational poverty. … White [people], re-budget your monthly so you can donate to Black funds for land purchasing.”

KIKI: Holy mother of god. These people are serious.


Nah. In THIS clip, they were just making noise and mouthing off. If they had been serious, they would have brought guns to force the the issue. But yeah ... they really do believe what they're shouting.

So the former residents might want to ask themselves: WHY was the neighborhood at below-market value? Was it because the properties had been allowed to run down? Was it because of high crime? Seems like the residents could have done something about both. SIX's experience shows you don't need a lot of money to make fundamental and cosmetic repairs to a home, and a neighborhood watch program might have done something about the crime. Plus, neighbors know which houses cause trouble. A little neighborly chat might have helped.

The only situation that I can see that does NOT land in the former residents' laps is if the houses were all repoed by the banks and then handled as rentals. That would have been from the 2008 subprime mortgage collapse. THANK YOU OBAMA FOR BAILING OUT THE BANKS, NOT THE HOMEOWNERS!

"I Have A Right To Make Sure That My Home Is Secure": Chicago Mayor Lightfoot Defends Ban On Protesters On Her Block

n the aftermath of the George Floyd killing, protests erupted across dozens of cities in California with hundreds of thousands of people taking to the streets, and despite the raging coronavirus pandemic they were cheered on loudly by the state's liberal elite with some of the most prominent Hollywood actors taking daily turns to voice their support for the protesters while condemning anyone who did not side with the BLM movement, even when so frequently it devolved into violent rioting and looting of innocent bystanders. All of that abruptly ended, however, when BLM invaded Beverly Hills chanting "eat the rich." That's when the police quickly showed up and immediately cleared out all the protesters.

But while such NIMBY hypocrisy has long been a fixture of the ultra-liberal Golden State, nothing compares to what just happened in Chicago whose Mayor Lori Lightfoot - best known for encouraging local BLM protests, going so far as saying that black lives are "more important that downtown corporations" after the unprecedented looting that took place last week - defended the Chicago Police Department’s ban on protesters being able to demonstrate on the block where she lives, telling reporters Thursday that she and her family at times require heightened security because of threats she receives daily.

Yes, Mayor Lori is all about BLM protests... as long as they are literally not in her back yard...

Lightfoot and Chicago police Superintendent David Brown were asked at an unrelated news conference about a Tribune report noting police have banned protesters from demonstrating on her block in the Logan Square neighborhood, ordering officers to arrest anyone who refuses to leave... It [THE DIRECTIVE] did not distinguish between the peaceful protesters Lightfoot regularly says she supports and those who might intend to be destructive, but ordered that after a warning is given to demonstrators, “It should be locked down."...

"I’m not going to make any excuses for the fact that, given the threats I have personally received, given the threats to my home and my family, I’m going to do everything I can to make sure they’re protected,” Lightfoot said. “I make no apologies whatsoever for that."

It wasn't clear if Lightfoot would apologize to all those millions of Chicago residents who - just like her - are trying to avoid threats against their own families by angry, violent looters; looters whose despicable actions Lightfoot has repeatedly turned her eyes away from in hopes of peak virtue signaling.

According to the Chicago Tribune, since the order, and even for a time just prior to its writing, Chicago cops have repeatedly blocked protesters’ access to the block with groups of officers and barricades. Police have often kept protesters contained at the nearby corner of Kimball and Wrightwood avenues, though one standoff between activists and officers last month saw police go as far as bringing in an armored vehicle in case things got out of hand.

Aside from the expanded police presence to block protesters from reaching her home, Lightfoot already receives 24/7 protection from cops including officers stationed at the residence. Worse, the aggressive overpolicing of the self-absorbed hypocrite mayor has often siphoned away resources from the area’s police district, some sources with knowledge of the situation told the Tribune, leading to quiet grumbling.

Both Lightfoot and Brown noted there are laws on the books banning residential protests, but Brown acknowledged the Police Department does not always enforce them. Brown said the city tries to give “wiggle room” for protesters.

Brown also cited instances where peaceful protests have been “hijacked” by agitators as reason for keeping demonstrators off Lightfoot’s block.

"We have seen very peaceful First Amendment protests for the most part but embedded in each of those protests have been very violent people. And they’re embedded. They put up umbrellas. And they come for a fight,” Brown said. “So we have to prepare for what we’ve seen."

You certainly do, and so do all the other millions of Chicago residents and yet under Lightfoot's directives it will be a miracle if Chicago has a police force this time next year... besides those cops of course stationed at Lightfoot's house to protect the (soon to be former) mayor from the protesters she herself has repeatedly egged on.

There is only so much ANY community can do to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. In the end, the smaller communities that make up the larger USA all need to be part of the larger economy because they all need meaningful jobs at living wages for everyone who can and wants to work.

Bu it doesn't help when your community gets thrown under the bus by a slick-talking double-dealer like Obama and Bill Clinton. (Bill threw the working class under the China-bus, and Obama threw homeowners under the bank-fraud bus, and the ones who were hurt most under Obama were blacks.)

"This Is Insane": Kenosha Melts Down As Cars Smashed, Buildings Torched And Looters Run Wild In Second Night Of Unrest

Anarchy broke out on the streets of Kenosha, Wisconsin Monday as protesters squared off with National Guardsman in the second night of unrest over the shooting of a reportedly unarmed black man by police on Sunday.

The night was documented by journalist Brendan Gutenschwager (@BGOnTheScene) with photos via the Daily Mail (EPA).

It's amazing that it's got over 4.5 million views. But even though that sounds like a lot, it really isn't when you consider how many people in our country alone have seen heavily edited versions of the video on the news since it happened.

‘We’ll burn your store down too’: Kenosha rioters show no remorse when confronted over razing local business(VIDEO)
© REUTERS/Stephen Maturen

Despite the deployment of National Guard troops to quell unrest, violence continued overnight in Kenosha, Wisconsin, with some desperate citizens forced to arm themselves and take matters into their own hands to defend the city.

Police deployed non-lethal munitions to disperse the crowds of protesters and looters late on Monday and into the early hours of Tuesday, in the second consecutive night of rioting since the police shooting of 29-year-old Jacob Blake during an incident on Sunday.

Rioters have brandished guns in the open for the second night in a row, but it wasn't only the rioters and police that took to the streets heavily armed: several citizens decided to make a stand and defend local businesses from looters, footage shared on social purports to show.

Some residents were harassed by the crowd for protecting a local business (not their own business)“We’re out here trying to protect residents, we’re trying to protect the innocent people and we’re trying to protect the businesses of the citizens out here...” pic.twitter.com/1uNWHM6kNl
— Shelby Talcott (@ShelbyTalcott) August 25, 2020

Demonstrators ignored a citywide curfew and at one point faced down police armored personnel carriers and tear gas, while enacting an apparent scorched Earth policy of torching local businesses indiscriminately, much to the dismay of legitimate protesters and local residents.

One resident, having apparently had enough, patrolled the streets in his pick up truck, engaging with the rioters and pleading for them to take their issues out on the police but spare local businesses.

“Just because you people are too scared to go deal with the cops... take your issues up with them…” the man can be heard pleading.

His efforts were seemingly in vain, however, as one of the alleged “protesters” called out the name of the do-gooder's business, written on the side of his truck, and gleefully proclaimed, “We'll burn your store down too!”

Kenosha is the latest flashpoint of racially charged, anti-police violence to sweep the US, with tensions having already erupted in many cities, including Seattle and Portland, following the death of George Floyd at the hands of police in May.

Trump and his allies rewrite history during Night 1 of RNC

Laura is now a hurricane

Jacob Blake is currently paralyzed from the waist down, his father says

Scanning up and down the website, no mention of the furniture store, car dealership, and other businesses torched in Kenosha?

I'm sure the people of Kenosha are wondering what happened to coverage of their riots!

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

Yes. That's why Trump was elected. And more and more people are getting pissed off at the rioters, as opposed to getting pissed off with them.



Yanno, rioting, burning and looting ... not the best way to make allies and converts, DEFINITELY not the way to reform the economy!

It looks like an entirely different scene than they've been saying it was for months now. I honestly can't believe that YouTube hasn't pulled it entirely from the site and has chosen only to suppress it in the search results and keep it off the Trending page.

It's amazing that it's got over 4.5 million views. But even though that sounds like a lot, it really isn't when you consider how many people in our country alone have seen heavily edited versions of the video on the news since it happened.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

No, it changes nothing, but keep blaming the victim.

That's what fascists do.




Keep doing free volunteer work for Trump's campaign, retard.

You're doing a fine job.


We Trump voters thank you in advance. Excellent work.



Do Right, Be Right. :)

Peaceful fires. That's what we like to see.

As you were.

So, ummm, black guy with a knife tries to get away from cops, they keep telling him to stop, and resists arrest.
Why does anybody imagine black folks will be upset for this Blake dude not acting white and abiding laws, police?

For those who didn't know, Kenosha County is essentially a suburb of both Chicago and Milwaukee, the 2 biggest shitholes on Lake Michigan shores.

Rumor had it 6ix once lived there, or nearby.
