So, your position is that BLM should not be able to protest and cannot have a valid message because OTHER people cause problems? How does that make sense to you? Are you responsible for Timothy McVeigh? Are you responsible for the guy that ran over protesters in Charlotte? Why didn't you stop them? Maybe we shouldn't allow you to express an opinion because OTHER people did bad things.

Do you want them to be violent or do you want them to be peaceful?

I said "Live TV", not FOX. Cable news, especially, is in the business of selling controversy and drama and fear and violence for advertising revenue.

If you were to step back from the emotional ledge you'd see that as a fairly uncontroversial statement.

The purpose of mass media is not to accurately tell the nation's story, it's to highlight what it thinks its audience wants to see. And the people want to see drama. They want "bodies in trees" weather coverage and riots.

that is a funny as hell pic

msnbc and cnn and even fox didn't ignore peaceful protests at all.  in fact they completely ignored(even Fox)riots in portland and elsewhere(portland was the worst for sure) for about a month after the initial first week following floyd.  there was rioting going on in multiple cities during that time but they chose to ignore it and talk only about peaceful protests.  twitterverse started showing the portalnd stuff and the media couldn't ignore it.

In the initial week following Floyd, there were peaceful protests involving millions of people all over the entire world and maybe two or three cities with looting and vandalism involving a few hundred total perpetrators across 6-7 total city blocks.

Peaceful marches involving tens of thousands continued for well over a month completely ignored while national media was obsessed with the fucking fence in Portland.

Next time your white ass gets pulled over do exactly what that guy did.  Fight with cops.  And then start reaching into your car.   And let us know how that works for you.  
 
The currently-available Jacob Blake video shows a man shot in front of his children after he ignored instructions from 2 policemen who had guns drawn, walked around his car refusing to comply, and reached in as the cops were trying to pull him away from the open door. More evidence could swing this either way, but if you condemn the cops based on this video, I don’t know what to say.  
 
And I’m someone who will absolutely shit on cops when warranted.  
Every other weekend some drunken white frat guy resists orders by police on 6th street. Yet I am having a hard time finding all the shootings on the internet.

the portland stuff wasn't reported on(unless you count twitter) until way later.  they focused on Chaz and protests the week after Floyd for about a month.

you have data on that?  I saw people get arrested on 6th street usually for fighting or generaly drunkeness but when the cops show up they almost always went down peacefully, this was years ago.  there is a white guy or 2 killed by cops every day.  where are the videos?

The two men who were killed were Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, of Kenosha, and Anthony Huber, 26, of Silver Lake, about 15 miles west of the city. The wounded person, Gaige Grosskreutz, 26, of West Allis, about 30 miles northwest of Kenosha, was expected to survive, police said. 

Videos from Tuesday night's protests had already shown a gunman, later identified as Rittenhouse, being tailed by protesters as he ran down a street. The videos show the gunman stumbling and falling before firing three of four shots hitting at least two people. Huber was later identified as the man killed in this incident.  

Now a new earlier clip appears to shed light on how the ordeal unfolded after a first victim was shot in the head outside a nearby auto garage. That man, now named as father-of-one Rosenbaum, is pictured on the ground while the gunman stands nearby. 

The video show the gunman running away in the moments after the gunshots rang out. He could be heard saying: 'I've just killed somebody.' It is then the second and third shootings, seen in the initial video shared widely Wednesday, are thought to have happened after protesters chased the gunman.

In total agreement. Do black parents have to constantly reinforce this?  Yes. Life’s not fair. Are there too many black parents that seemingly don’t preach this?  It appears that way. 
I’m privileged and white. My parents sat me down when I was a teenager and told me all of the things Shaq says. Didn’t really have to reinforce it because again, life is not fair. I have beat this into my kids at much younger ages (12, 10, and 8) and they’re more privileged than I was. Because this country is a powder keg. This will have a terrible impact on police going forward. It will get worse before it gets better. I pray they stay totally out of the fray of protests, where nothing gets solved and only bad things happen. 
I am about 300 posts in and trying to catch up. This post caught my eye, because this poster's take not only fails to explain the John Crawfords and Tamir Rice's of the world. This poster also doesn't seem to understand that what he is seeing is how young Black Millennials are beginning to respond to police. What he doesn't remember as that the generations before this one were as respectful as can be to LE and still met the same fate. Go back even further and you can pull video of peaceful Blacks being attacked by dogs lets loose on them and beaten by police. Before then Blacks were being hung for cat calling or even looking at a white woman. What we are saying is it's always been this way, and the actions of the police have always been explained away as justified because black people are unruly.

It kills that bullshit narrative about all the bussed in rioters from MKE/ORD!

Turns out the three shot were in/close to their own hood.
 

Rittenhouse had to drive the farthest and ran a gun across state lines. Your ‘outside agitator’ is the incel who would’ve shot up a school in more ‘normal’ times. Every single action he took on Wisconsin soil was in the furtherance of a crime.

the victim is clearly holding some kind of plastic bag in the lead up to the shooting, and he is fucking pissed because he felt that the guy pointed a gun at him. that's why the shooter's fellow larpers keep pulling him back, trying to de-escalate the situation (to their credit). i don't know what's in the bag, but it doesn't look like a molotov cocktail to me.

A much clearer video that was buried back in this thread

CLEARLY an empty plastic bag. The whole moltov thing has been ridiculous from the get go. This was a scared pussy little kid that illegally brought a loaded gun to something he was not at all ready for and it cost two people their lives, at best. At worst this was opportunistic premeditated MURDER.

Admitting on camera, that he is going to defend property with lethal options only, would seem to be a mistake for self defense arguments.

Even if he ends up getting off the murder charge, hopefully he convicted of something that prevents him from becoming a cop. One can only imagine what damage he could do with a 30 year career.

Well it's key to their self defense argument to justify a right-wing radicalized 17 year old carrying an AR into a protest and shooting multiple protesters. 

but there were protesters walking on the street... and they probably didn't have a permit... So they probably felt the protesters had it coming anyways.
