Of course it is a top priority.

If one group of citizens can be targeted like this with impunity, and
no retribution for blatant antisemitism, then any group of citizens
can be targeted in a similar way.



GOP leadership is weak,

They have been pretty strong on being against anti-semitism

The question is where were they during the anti-White pogroms during BLM?

Mitt Romney was out there marching in the street with the DC BLM

Has any top GOP leader been out marching in the street with the pro-Palestinian protestors? of course not


Rarely do I defend BLM for anything, but there were different kinds of BLM marches and protests. Yea, it's become a punch line, but fact is, a majority were peaceful and reasonable. There were, in fact, multiple marches where police forces joined. There were prayer sessions involving all kinds. If any of those would have been near me, I may well have attended. As for those that were violent/radical, there were plenty of conservative politicians and influencers calling it out and saying more should be done.
Based on the fact that the BLM marches were predicated on the lie that police are hunting down innocent black people NONE of the BLM marches were "reasonable."


Some were but others were about Floyd and other specific cases.

Do you really still believe Derrick Chauvin killed George Floyd?!?

Chauvin was a white police officer sacrificed to appease the violent (mostly black) mob. He did not receive justice. He was the victim. Now the guy is getting stabbed within an inch of his life in prison.

And sadly, unlike the Jan 6 political prisoners, I don't even know if Trump will pardon the guy... maybe at the stroke of midnight at the end of his second term.

What was it about Floyd's case that makes you think any kind of protest, march, or prayer session was called for? I sincerely ask out of curiosity. The exact same thing happened to a white man in Dallas the year prior, and there was absolutely nothing, i mean, complete zilch.

I believe Chauvin was convicted under state law so Trump cannot pardon him.

He got Federal (and State) charges.

A wild case of over charging were every single government agency that could come after him did so...

  • Federal sentence: 21 years imprisonment
  • State sentence: 22 years, +12 years imprisonment

He is currently being held/incarcerated at FCI, Tucson and that is a Federal facility.

They even went back and go him for tax stuff

[On July 22, 2020, after he was charged with murder, Chauvin and his wife, Kellie, were separately charged in Washington County, Minnesota, with nine counts of felony tax evasion related to allegedly fraudulent state income tax returns from 2014 to 2019. Prosecutors said the couple had under-reported their joint income...including more than $95,000 from Chauvin's security work. The complaint also alleges failure to pay proper sales tax on a $100,000 BMW purchased in Minnesota in 2018, failure to declare income from Chauvin's wife's business, and improper deductions for a rental home]

Texan Daniel Shaver was also killed in Mesa Arizona execution style by a cop (for the crime of being drunk and hanging a pelt gun out of a hotel window)

And there were not mass protests because Shaver was White.

Can't blame the protestors for not showing up for that, they weren't paid to show up. They were not bussed in en mass by their employer because protesting those wouldn't serve the democrat regime.

Sorry but you have selective memory. Mulitple cities were burned to the ground and many people lost their lives. I think 5 Dallas cops were murdered after a BLM protest turned into a riot with an active shooter situation. This campus tantrum thing is nothing in comparison to the summer of Floyd and all the dems in congress (including current VP) bailed rioters out of jail.

As I've posted elsewhere multiple times, the evidence does not support that cops murdering blacks is common.. Not even close. Despite millions of law enforcement contacts, really bad cases happen a few times a year. So we agree on that point.

But whites don't have the history with law enforcement that blacks do. A strong majority of blacks truly believe they are mistreated and always have been. So when a bad case or two hit the media, their response is understandable to a certain extent. They respond to the system more than to a particular case. Whites don't feel that way. At least very few do. I've volunteered in inter-cities for most of my professional life and was on the board of a large youth organization in one of the worst parts of one of the worst cities in America. Blacks feel this way, and it's sincere. Some of it is warranted, some, I argue, is not. The leftist media and politicos do not help. They inflame by aggressively pushing a false narrative.

Shoot Jan 6th is absolutely nothing compared to the Summer of 2020.

It is still used for political fodder though.

I agree with your sentiment but the BLM riots went on for 8 months. Calling it the summer of blm diminishes just how long the media and democrats allowed the violence to continue.

Based on the fact that the BLM marches were predicated on the lie that police are hunting down innocent black people NONE of the BLM marches were "reasonable."

Whether police always do the right thing or not, it is always reasonable to ask them to do the right thing.

The vast majority of BLM protesters were asking that police who kill innocent blacks be held accountable, and that they seek to treat everyone fairly.

It could be argued that in the past decade or 2 police themselves have become much more diverse, better representing the demographics of the U.S., and that for every mistreatment of a black American, there are probably 3 of a white American. However, the centuries before that created a narrative very different, and when such injustice has been perpetrated for so long, it just takes more than 1 or 2 decades of fair policecwork to change the societal narrative.

The peaceful BLM protests were exactly reasonable, and anyone making use of their right to peacefully protest, I applaud, even if I disagree with the cause.

Whether police always do the right thing or not, it is always reasonable to ask them to do the right thing.

The vast majority of BLM protesters were asking that police who kill innocent blacks be held accountable, and that they seek to treat everyone fairly.

It could be argued that in the past decade or 2 police themselves have become much more diverse, better representing the demographics of the U.S., and that for every mistreatment of a black American, there are probably 3 of a white American. However, the centuries before that created a narrative very different, and when such injustice has been perpetrated for so long, it just takes more than 1 or 2 decades of fair policecwork to change the societal narrative.

The peaceful BLM protests were exactly reasonable, and anyone making use of their right to peacefully protest, I applaud, even if I disagree with the cause.
I'm glad that you also agree that the blm riots were about feelings and narrative rather than facts and reality.

Centuries of police brutality is a fact. Yes people care. I do think recent police brutality was vastly overstated by mainstream media, but I am glad that people protested this perception. If you thought it was real, you'd have to be a real monster to not support such protests.

So I guess "chanting/singing" and "not paying taxes" are what would come the closest to the center of a Republican and Democrat protest Venn diagram

Of course it is a top priority.

If one group of citizens can be targeted like this with impunity, and
no retribution for blatant antisemitism, then any group of citizens
can be targeted in a similar way.



GOP leadership is weak,

They have been pretty strong on being against anti-semitism

The question is where were they during the anti-White pogroms during BLM?

Mitt Romney was out there marching in the street with the DC BLM

Has any top GOP leader been out marching in the street with the pro-Palestinian protestors? of course not


Rarely do I defend BLM for anything, but there were different kinds of BLM marches and protests. Yea, it's become a punch line, but fact is, a majority were peaceful and reasonable. There were, in fact, multiple marches where police forces joined. There were prayer sessions involving all kinds. If any of those would have been near me, I may well have attended. As for those that were violent/radical, there were plenty of conservative politicians and influencers calling it out and saying more should be done.

So exactly zero of the rioters experienced any of the "centuries of police brutality". It's become a narrative that is not based on facts in modern times. It's feelings. They FEEL like police are bad because their great great grandparents lived in a time when some police got away with brutality. Like I, and now you, have said, it's all about feelings and narrative and not facts.
Our vibrations were getting nasty. But why? I was puzzled, frustrated... Had we deteriorated to the level of dumb beasts?

In an earlier forum, you called me a racist for thinking that BLM was pushing a false narrative: https://sicem365.com/forums/7/topics/111918/replies/2849864

Here's your quote: "I love that phrase, false BLM narrative. You might as well just lead with "I'm racist.""

You were rightfully lambasted for that opinion. Anyway, I'm just wondering if you've learned anything since then, and if you still think it's racist for believing it's a false narrative.

Centuries?????

Police were not even a common thing until very recently (in terms of human history).

I think that these campus protestors dont know what time it is. The leadership of the Fourth Reich needed them in 2020 for the Kristallnacht of the BLM riots. Having taken power four years ago, it is time for their Night of the Long Knives.

"On June 30, 1934, Hitler, accompanied by SS units, arrived at Bad Wiessee, where he personally placed Röhm and other high-ranking SA leaders under arrest. Over the next 48 hours, 200 other senior SA officers were arrested on the way to Wiessee. Some Germans were shocked by the executions, but many others perceived Hitler to have restored "order" to the country."
