    What right did they have to "move" anyone out of the area?

    Thinly veiled racist is not so thinly veiled these days. Yes Carpro, that was the major crime worth talking about here.

    It was inevitable that you would resort to calling me a racist. Who cares? That's all you have.

    Bottom line is let's not act like these BLM protesters are completely innocent and minding their own business.

    Should this have escalated to shots fired? Absolutely not. The folks that did that, unless there was justifiable threats to their life, should be caught and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

    But back on the other side of the story, it sounds like the BLM protesters did harass and try and illegally remove the counter-protesters. The BLM protesters involved should also be caught and prosecuted.

    BLM was "bullying" and "intimidating" and the white people that showed up were "hecklers." Seems legit.

    Also,

    BLM removing white people = bullies, intimidation

    BLM being gunned down = blowback

    The personal attack was inevitable.

    Well we are casually brushing off the incident of actual murder here to focus the ire on BLM. Yeah, there was murder and stuff but hey THERE WAS A FIGHT OR SOMETHING.

    Seems like you were about as "casual" with you murder charge as you were with your racist charge. You really should try to get those things right.

    What right did the blm thugs have to chase anyone away from a public demonstration?

    http://www.breitbart.com/big-govern...-moments-shooting-black-lives-matter-protest/


    “One of them started reaching and backing up,” the man said. “They start running back and the crowd started chasing them down there.”

    “They running down the block and we turn around,” he added. “I go back.”

    “We tell crowd to come back,” the protestor explained. “They continue to run after them… they start opening fire and they let off about eight rounds and they shot five people.”

    I don't know, but do you think the response by the whites was appropriate? Was this, as you have said in the past, "a good shooting?"

    The incident is too new. Let's wait and see what other facts come out.

    No way to tell. They were obviously outnumbered and being chased by a mob. If one or more of them felt their life was in danger, it's possible that's why they began shooting. But right now there is no indication whether that might or might not be the case.

    The facts are a BLM mob chased them and one or more of them opened fire. Why is pure conjecture.

    So THAT's what happened at DT's event. The one BLM guy had tried to bully the racially prejudiced folks in DT's crowd one time too many. So they took to calling him monkey, and n@##er, and kicked him in the face and stomach and all that other stuff. And then that scion of good virtue, Donald Trump, says that maybe the guy needed to be roughed up.

    Sounds like the "he got what he deserved crowd" on here.Rolleyes

    Just love the way some of you are all about showing the love of Christ.

    You are so full of Bologna its absolutely pitiful. You have nothing to do with the love of Christ. You want to judge these guys without knowing all the facts. Why can't you wait until all the facts are in?

    Without knowing a single thing about this, you have already judged the white people guilty. That's showing the love of Christ? I don't think so.

    You haven't heard anyone here saying that anyone got what they deserved. What we've said is we don't know what happened here and we reserve the right to judge until we know.
