    it's to shine a light on "man, this sucks. what if it was happening everyday to you simply cause you were black?"
    Last I checked 28 people dead in the protests.

    Thats pretty inconvenient.

    Police: Richmond riots instigated by white supremacists disguised as Black Lives Matter

    RICHMOND, Va. – Riots in downtown Richmond over the weekend were instigated by white supremacists under the guise of Black Lives Matter, according to law enforcement officials.

    Protesters tore down police tape and pushed forward toward Richmond police headquarters, where they set a city dump truck on fire.

    Police declared the event an “unlawful assembly” and ordered people to leave, later deploying tear gas.

    Six people were arrested. The mayor of Richmond thanked the Black Lives Matter protesters he said tried to stop the white supremacists from spearheading the violence.

    “Their mission is simple, not the Richmond we know,” said Mayor Levar Stoney.

    Now lets apply little thethe's logic to this. Now that we have some evidence tht this happened somewhere this is proof that ALL of the violence is instigated by neo nazis pretending to be BLM.

    In his new book, “Charter Schools and Their Enemies,” Sowell compared the performance of the overwhelmingly poor Black and Hispanic students in charter schools “in Harlem and other low-income minority communities in New York City” with that of students in the same grades in traditional public schools housed in the same buildings.

    He found that these charter school students “pass the statewide mathematics tests at a rate more than 6 times the rate at which traditional public school students, housed in the same buildings, pass the same test.”

    Designed? Lol

    I could maybe entertain the argument that it unfortunately happens

    But designed to do so? Lol

    I would add to that that the people of the time who tried to fight/help those enslaved black people were also treated badly. To me those who could have just ignored it because it wasnt negatively affecting them but chose to speak and act out knowing it would make them a public pariah and subject to lynchings and being murdered are the heros of the time we need to honor. Its one thing to fight for whats right and be treated like a hero, but its tragic that the people who gave their life fighting for what was right were treated like pariahs at their time and are largely forgotten in modern history. Lincoln gets the rep they deserve. Lincoln was not any lover or defender of freedom or black people.

    I wonder what goes through Thomas Sowell -Tim Scott's mind watching Trump campaign ads inferring that if they - Sowell and Scott - tried to live in "suburban " neighborhoods

    Sounds like you are talking about "northern agitators" Michael Schwerner and Andrew Goodman along with MS native James Chaney.

    this is a very stupid point.

    I support equality for all. Unfortunately, you do not.

    Meanwhile black lives and black businesses are being destroyed while making this point that nobody disagrees with
