You just do not get it. The posters here have identified them ALL, not by name, but certainly by ethnicity and ethics. Well, in some cases by leaders names and some groups, and they know

But not to worry.....while most of this is to divide us, our government is going to bring us together....they are identifying my p party those who they think are not tough enough, and avoiding any mention of anyone else.

Never saw this ploy used to bring a country together but we will see.....everyone decries the senseless looting, but now it appears we are on the verge of identyfying them, inteligence reports be damne

Totally dude (or dudette!)

This is why America has more immigrants including millions of minorities every year than any other country.

They just can't wait to get beat up by our police and oppressed by our totally unjust economic system.

Millions of minorities come to America, but very few of them seem to want to live in The Villages. Just curious as to the history or reason for this.

YES!

One can only hope this catches on, as it is one of the main things that could go toward...fair and equal justice.

In Some Cities, Police Officers Joined Protesters Marching Against Brutality

Quote:

As protests sparked by George Floyd’s death entered their chaotic fifth day, social media filled with images and video of police officers using batons, tear gas and rubber bullets to quell crowds⁠—but some squads joined in with Saturday protesters to express their stance against police brutality, and to show solidarity with the anti-racism movement.

“We want to be with y’all, for real. I took my helmet off, laid the batons down. I want to make this a parade, not a protest,” Genesee County Sheriff Chris Swanson was seen telling protesters in Flint, Michigan, before he joined the assembled crowd to march, eliciting cheers.

Officers in Camden, New Jersey, helped carry a banner reading “Standing in Solidarity,” and seemed to join in with the crowd chanting “no justice, no peace.”

In Santa Cruz, California, Police Chief Andy Mills took a knee with protesters in the pose made famous by Colin Kaepernick, with the department tweeting it was “in memory of George Floyd & bringing attention to police violence against Black people.”

Two Kansas City, Missouri, police officers⁠—one white man, one black man⁠—were photographed holding aloft a sign reading “end police brutality.”

ABC preempted all shows last night, with feeds from all the major cities. Wonder what they were .........................

There have been consequences for their actions. One was charged with 3d degree murder, all were fired and the fat lady hasn't finished singing yet on the fate of the other officers. There is a thing called due process.

Do you think its an accident that some of the leaders of these rioters are ready with incendiary devices, and tools the break into the stores and other buildings? What very wealthy individual is actively paying members of Anti-Fa and BLM? I will let you do the necessary research to find that name of the billionaire that has residences all over the world and is most likely living in Katonah, NY at this time.

There definitely is someone behind this rioting and the FBI needs to turn the dogs loose and find out who it is. There have been people killed in these riots and the organizers should be charged with murder.

ANTIFA is being designated as a terrorist organization.. that's a start

I haven't seen any signs that say minorities are not allowed in TV, there are minority realtors selling the homes here. I've not seen any Klan cross burnings in TV. I haven't seen any villagers with signs at the entrances to TV saying minorities aren't welcome. I've seen minorities living in TV, in fact one of my neighbors is black. I seriously doubt that very many people said "Let move to TV because there aren't any of those pesky dark people living there". How would a prospective villages buyer even know how many minorities lived here? :ohdear:
