I have told people online: the vast majority of protests are peaceful and without major incident. But they don’t make headlines or “Breaking News” standards. Explosions, burning buildings and smoke filled streets full of running looters get much more viewer interest. Media is a whore, looking for what brings in the eyes and money. And those watching Fox News, they may never see a peaceful protest on the news. That doesn’t mean they are not the rule rather than the exception.

I have been saying this all along. There are instigators and well organized gangs working the demonstrations under the cover of peaceful protests. They get what they want and let others take the blame and show up on the news video. I have seen that they have caught a few. Hopefully they can identify others, though Trump and AG Barr have no real interest in finding them since they are busy blaming leftist groups and Antifa with no real evidence. While there is evidence of Boogaloo and other Right Wing, White separatists groups being present.

Anyone who doesn’t think the Right and the Trumplicans want to see this escalated and more violence against the Black community is living in a dream world. Just as in the ‘60s CIA and FBI agents infiltrated the Peace and Civil Rights movements, today White Separatists and anarchist groups are pushing these protests to creat violence and drown out their message. News media and police need to put more effort into finding the catalysts for the violence rather than the organizers of the protest itself.

Barnie2years comments on May 31, 2020:

In the history and evolution of Humanity, the nastiest tribes always win. This is not an excuse for racism, just pointing out a historic reality. Large civilizations in the recent past, such as the Greek and Roman were in their origin fierce warrior clans, conquering all and ruthless. But they developed civilized infrastructure and became comfortable. Then they were pushed out by the Germanic hoards and civilization took ten steps back. If you follow human history, the cycle repeats itself over and over. Perhaps at some point the non Caucasien portion of the world will rise up and take over. It has happened before, Genghis Khan and his Mongolien army took over a huge swath of the world. The Chinese Empire was extensive and powerful. History and power are never static.

IMO, I’m afraid the rioters are playing right into the hands of the POS in the W H.

Barnie2years comments on May 18, 2020:

As a heavy Facebook sharer, I have from time to time posted memes which were called out (backed with factual, information and resources) as untrue. When this happens, I post an apology, often the correction and after a period of time delete the original post. We all make mistakes and in the speed of life online post memes and others opinions without due process. Unlike Trump, we should not pass blame on to others for our oversight, but correct the mistake as publicly as feasible and Be more cautious in the future to research before sharing. But in agreement with others on here, to actually be termed a lie I think requires knowingly stating an obvious falsehood and defending that in the face of substantial proof to the contrary. Thus why my terminology for this action is now being referred to as a “TRUMPISM”.

Barnie2years comments on May 16, 2020:

I always tell those who push the issue; prayer and flipping a coin are about equal in their ability to change the final outcome. I often say “best wishes” which is simply the secular way of saying “I’ll pray for you” and again has just as much bearing on results. But it makes believers feel they have some special control over things they don’t, so I suppose it gives them comfort. I take comfort in knowing that I don’t have control and just need to accept life as it comes, do what I can to affect the outcome and deal with the result.

I also found the Encyclopedia Brittanica description interesting. This part of a long article especially: Within weeks, Tea Party chapters began to appear around the United States, using social media sites such as Facebook to coordinate protest events. They were spurred on by conservative pundits, particularly by Fox News Channel’s Glenn Beck. The generally libertarian character of the movement drew disaffected Republicans to the Tea Party banner, and its antigovernment tone resonated with members of the paramilitary militia movement. Obama himself served as a powerful recruiting tool, as the Tea Party ranks were swelled by “Birthers”—individuals who claimed that Obama had been born outside the United States and was thus not eligible to serve as president (despite a statement by the director of the Hawaii State Department of Health attesting that she had seen Obama’s birth certificate and could confirm that he had been born in the state)—as well as by those who considered Obama a socialist and those who believed that Obama, who frequently discussed his Christianity publicly, was secretly a Muslim.
