Americans turn against Black Lives Matter A majority of adults now oppose the movement

For the first time since 2018, more Americans now oppose the Black Lives Matter movement than support it.

Researchers Civiqs have been tracking public opinion on the activist group every week since 2017, interviewing a total of 278,076 adults across the country. For most of that period BLM has enjoyed majority support. It reached peak popularity (53% support, 28% against) immediately after the killing of George Floyd in June 2020, but has been drifting downwards ever since. Crossover was reached this week, with 44% of the American public opposed to BLM, and 43% in favour.

Stiffest charge sticks for ex-officer who shot Daunte Wright

Former Minneapolis police officer Kim Potter has lost her bid to shed a first-degree manslaughter charge in the shooting death of Daunte Wright earlier this year.

Potter had previously been charged only with second-degree manslaughter for killing the 20-year-old Black man during a traffic stop on April 11, alleging she’d mistaken her weapon for a taser.

Judge finds Inuit women were defamed by BLM activist in social media firestorm over alleged George Floyd post

In the spring of 2020, just five days after the death of George Floyd in Minnesota had kicked off massive protests over police brutality, Shania Lavallee posted a video on Snapchat of her sister Justine play-fighting with Shania’s boyfriend, as they often did.

… The facts of the case, as laid out in an Ontario Superior Court defamation ruling, show what happens when a snippet on social media is taken from its context and turned into a full-blown mobbing by total strangers. The sisters were castigated as privileged white girls from an Ottawa suburb; in fact, they are both Inuit through their mother’s side, and are registered members of the Native Alliance of Quebec.

Never Trumpers and Black Lives Matter Have the Same Backer

Nothing says political norms like cop killers and racist terrorists.

The press releases went out on schedule and the media rewrote them into news stories. A group of “principled” Republicans was going to fundraise to support Democrat congressmen.

The stories rolled out on schedule from different media outlets while appearing nearly identical. And the real story, as usual, was not what was on the page, but what had been deliberately left out. Reuters described the Renew America Movement as a group of Never Trump Republicans “whose leadership includes former Republican Governors Christine Todd Whitman of New Jersey and Bill Weld of Massachusetts.” Hardly a single story mentioned the actual leaders.

Georgia Terrorist Threatening to Kill Black People Was Actually a Black Woman

GEORGIA – […] Since last December, a Douglasville, Georgia neighborhood has been gripped in fear due to racially charged messages that have anonymously been left in the mailboxes of residents of color, reports Fox News. But now police said they have made an arrest and the alleged culprit is not who the neighbors expected.

Black History Month website deletes article calling white people ‘genetically defective mutants’

As the UK celebrates Black History Month, a website promoting the event has deleted content featuring claims that white people are “genetically defective mutants”, which had appeared beside taxpayer-funded ads.

The Black History Month website is not run by the British government, but is one of the most prominent outlets promoting the month, and has featured content by prominent British politicians, all of whom pledge their support for the event and pledge to “fight for racial justice”, as Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey wrote in an article published on the site on Friday.

It has also featured far more provocative and racist content. A 2016 article on the site examined the work of American psychiatrist Frances Cress Welsing, who theorized that white people were originally “genetically defective mutants” who were driven from Africa by the black natives.

Who Is Killing 10,000 Black Americans Every Year?

“Unfortunately, Jan. 6 was not an isolated event,” warned FBI Director Christopher Wray last winter:

“The problem of domestic terrorism has been metastasizing across the country for a long time now, and it’s not going away anytime soon.”

Since he became director in 2017, said Wray, FBI domestic terrorism investigations had doubled in number to more than 2,000, and FBI investigations of white supremacists had tripled.

The Plot to Destroy America

Andy Ngo explains in Unmasked that the BLM organization and Antifa operate in tandem and are run by Marxists who seek nothing less than to destroy America—its governments; its houses of worship; its monuments to historic figures; and its flag and national anthem. They also seek to destroy free enterprise and to replace the standard pedagogy in schools with Marxist Critical Race Theory, hoping to breed generations of Marxist revolutionaries to promote violent overthrow. These efforts endlessly manifest themselves across the nation in the looting and burning of businesses, government buildings, and churches; robbery; assaults; and murder. They are furthered by many Democrat District Attorneys, Mayors, and Governors.

Black Lives Matter Killed 2,000 Black People – The number of black murder victims rose 62% in one year.

The Black Lives Matter movement and the allied criminal justice reform movement which opened jails and decriminalized crimes led to a nearly 30% surge in murders in 2020.

The 29.4% increase is historically unprecedented.

Black Lives Matter Is Threatening An ‘Uprising’ Against ‘Racist’ Vaccine Mandates

It’s a rule in the national media that vaccine hesitancy is worthy of shame and scorn, right up until it collides with their most precious cause, the Black Lives Matter movement.

Hesitant (white) nurses? Outcast.

Hesitant (white) Facebook moms? Shun.

Hesitant (white) Trump supporters? Guillotine.

Black Lives Matter activists demonstrated Monday against “racist” COVID-19 vaccine mandates, staging a rally outside a restaurant they said used the city’s mandate to deny service to Black patrons.

The crowd protesting in front of Carmine’s restaurant in Manhattan chanted “Carmine’s are racist,” according to reports.

Sunday NYT Mag Cover Deflects Black-on-Asian Assaults, Finds ‘Root Causes,’ Victim Blaming

In the August 22 cover story for The New York Times Sunday Magazine, San Francisco-based magazine journalist Jaeah Lee touched on the anti-Asian-American hate crimes, but while it’s an important and valid story, it dealt very gingerly with certain aspects.

Lee’s headline used one family’s story as a jumping off point: “Why Was Vicha Ratanapakdee Killed? — His death helped awaken the nation to a rise in anti-Asian violence. For his grieving family, the reckoning hasn’t gone far enough.”

Scattered within the 8,000-word story were hard truths about the commonality of violent black-on-Asian assaults.

NFL Agents Accuse League of ‘Bullsh*t’ Woke Diversity and Race Agenda

Several sports agents have accused the NFL of failing to follow through on the woke agenda they adopted in the wake of the police-involved death of Minneapolis man George Floyd.

Last year, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell claimed that the league would up its game on left-wing causes and even apologized for “not listening to NFL players” and their protests against America during the playing of the national anthem.

Goodell also announced a big increase in the millions the league was going to spend on woke causes and social justice initiatives. In addition, the NFL began adding the so-called “black national anthem” to its pre-game ceremonies, played right after the national anthem.
