Here it is, ladies and gentlemen...what it's all really about...in black and white:

http://www.msn.com/en-au/news/world/we-are-tired-of-people-that-look-like-you-australian-tv-reporter-is-confronted-by-protesters-while-covering-violent-george-floyd-riots-in-los-angeles-where-cops-were-outnumbered-and-cars-torched/ar-BB14OM6U?li=AAaeSy5&OCID=AVRES000

'We are tired of people that look like you': Australian TV reporter is confronted by protesters while covering violent George Floyd riots in Los Angeles where cops were outnumbered and cars torched.

 © Provided by Daily Mail 'We're tired of people like you guys telling us how to feel about our own lives,' one of the protesters said, pointing at Ms Daish, who is blonde, and her crew.

Alexis Daish was in West Hollywood with her cameraman and security guards about 4pm local time covering the protest for Channel Nine's Weekend Today.
Ms Daish, who is the network's US correspondent, first explained how police were outnumbered and had no escape after their cars were torched and destroyed, before asking a group of protesters to explain their outrage.

Black girl...Black power salute.
Some think that's a good idea.

What I see is every White person in America..... who's not taking part in the violent, burning down America, looting protests.....rushing out and buying another dozen guns each.

Meanwhile, the president went on to say that “we support the majority of police officers who are incredible in every way and devoted public servants that keep our cities safe and protect our communities.”

He added: “No one is more upset than fellow law enforcement officers by the small handful who failed to abide by their oath to serve and protect.

“My administration will stop mob violence and will stop it cold,” Trump said. “It does not serve any citizen of any race, color or creed, for the government to give into anarchy, abandon police precincts, or allow communities to be burned to the ground. It won’t happen

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said late Saturday he's seeking National Guard assistance as the nation's second-largest city faces another night of rioting in response to the death of George Floyd.

“ This is no longer a protest.
This is destruction This is vandalism”.

wow


https://nypost.com/2020/05/29/amy-klobuchar-addresses-claims-she-didnt-charge-derek-chauvin-in-shooting/

Why I said she was out of the Veepstakes a few days ago.

She was never really in the running if Dems want to win.


Joe is an old white man why would he need a middle aged white woman, to help in the Midwest?

That’s why Obama picked Joe.

She was bringing milk to somebody who'd been tear gassed.

She put up no resistance.

They dislodged her facemask. And he punched her.



She was there.
People rioting against the cops...looting and burning everything in sight.
Best to stay home, indoors, doors locked, guns ready.

Cops have tv sets.
If she'd stayed at home she wouldn't have been punched.

If folks had followed your advice, there would be no United States.

And for that matter, at this point, no Australia.

Of course not. You never make sense beyond hating Trump.

Reading definitions is beyond your capability.

It's a good thing there is no literacy test to join this message board. Or maybe you are like Trump and suffering from something that has sapped your intelligence.

BTW, somebody elsewhere complained about Trump and Pence and politics at the NASA/SpaceX launch and I pointed out that without Trump's active support this launch would not have happened.

You don't understand me even as well as you understand basic language, and that's saying something.

That that would have been your motive does not make it hers.

And what you are missing is that the looters are largely white folks and many of the instigators are white supremacists.

But as ever. stick to your version of the story. It helps you to sleep better at night.

How, pray tell, can you tell that the expression "Figures" is a noun and not a verb?

I do appreciate your actually engaging in the conversation, for a change.

But how?
