Thread Name: BS: Black Lives Matter - change on the way?
Subject: RE: BS: Black Lives Matter - change on the way?
There was a long piece on Channel 4 News last night about a July 4th incident in Indiana, showing videos taken by white people who had intervened to help a black man who had been attacked by a bunch of barely dressed inebriated tattoed white men who called him boy, repeatedly, told the white people to clear off and leave them to deal with him, and asked for a noose*. It took some time for the prime examples of supreme whites to be arrested, and they are now claiming that the black man started it, and was trespassing (apparently not) and ignoring the video evidence. The FBI is now involved.
When people have forgotten about lynching will be time for Pence to ignore the phrase "Black Lives Matter". He is only afraid of being attacked by a random woman who finds him irresistably attractive.
*Apparently they are exonerated by not having a noose, or even a rope only mentioning it. Comments under reports on line are sickening. But I am sure there are people over here just as bad.
