In the wake of the completely unjustified murder of George Floyd by police officer Derek Chauvin, tens of thousands of Americans concerned about police brutality have taken to the streets to demand reforms they believe to be necessary to protect civilian liberties.
But, unfortunately, these well-meaning, law-abiding citizens are not alone. They have been joined by radical elements who are seeking to sow discord, create division, and, in many cases, usher in an anti-American revolution hellbent on fundamentally transforming the United States in their Marxist image.
Although many have been reluctant to acknowledge that far-left organizations and networks like Antifa are driving much of the chaos now occurring nightly on America’s streets, including brutal attacks on police officers and innocent civilians, there is substantial evidence to show that these groups are present and actively engaging in the George Floyd protests.

They haven’t “hijacked it.” The ENTIRE POINT is to have violence, so they can blame it on Trump.
The media is playing along with this 100%
Who sends out the calls to community organizers requesting a protest crowd and who sends out the calls for the marxist rioters?
“Although many have been reluctant to acknowledge that far-left organizations and networks like Antifa are driving much of the chaos now occurring...”
Like the FBI.
I’m sick of hearing about the “mostly peaceful” demonstrations. These stopped being “protests” and “demonstrations” the same day they started. The moment the first window was smashed and the first fire was set, all these “mostly peaceful” demonstrations became cover for rioters, looters, and arsonists. The organizers know it even if some of those attending are too stupid to figure it out.
Oh, did the bring strozk and page back to work that angle?
One hopes that all communications have been vacuumed up and law enforcement is on it.
I’m afraid to have to tell you that law enforcement is not ‘on it’ they are in on it.
Oh but they have hi-jacked the protests. Of course the media is going to blame President Trump, and downplay the criminal actions that want to destroy this country.
“In the wake of the completely unjustified murder of George Floyd by police officer...”
Once again fanning the flames!
Murder has bot been proven, there has not even been a trial.
This statement is missing the “Alleged” that has been present in every previous report of an incident that I can recall. Even when the incident was filmed and witnessed by dozens.
Every time an article begins like this I stop reading right there, eF everyone who is pushing the “Cop MURDERED him!” mantra without waiting on dispassionate evidence.
Remember 3 years ago, when the media Left and Right mourned how a few violent radicals invaded the peaceful white pride protests in Charlottesville? Me neither...
While there may be some, don’t paint the whole group as being complicit. They take orders from above, and if they do not follow those orders they may find themselves under indictments. Blame the Mayors & Governors, that is who are really to blame.
Why is it government can violate a church’s First Amendment right to peaceably assemble, but not a protest’s right to peaceably assemble, especially when it is proven that anarchists, looters and rioters negate the “peaceability” of those assemblies?
I saw video of a brilliant black man screaming to rioters around him “When a black man commits a crime we say not to judge all of us by the actions of one man, so how can we judge all cops by the actions of one?’
It was like spotting a unicorn riding a rainbow.
If you find the link to that video, please post here!
I think in at least some cases, going to a rally is a bit like attending a funeral out of respect for the family. There’s a dead guy, there is grieving, there is eulogizing, and it’s a bonding exercise. What’s different is that there is blame on a racial group (whites), there is a total lack of acknowledgement that most of not all of this racial group (whites) have been subjected to racist attacks by people who don’t treat black people the same way (Ex. spitting on, baseless accusations, hounding, violence, harassment, denial of equal treatment, denial of service, slander, etc. etc.). These people can’t can’t say what happens because nice black people will think they are lying unless they see it for themselves, and then it REALLY messes with their heads and they invariably conclude that it’s an isolated case, but it really happens ALL OF THE TIME. So no, “silence is not violence.”
But I digress. People will go often for the same reason they go to funerals and viewings. To support the family members that they respect and love, not to hang out with all the creepy uncles and weird aunts, and certainly not to hang out with people who never let the fact that their ideology always fails get in the way of trying to inflict it on other people.
“Mostly Peaceful” is newspeak and about as helpful as when the weatherman says “Mostly Sunny” or “Partly Cloudy” — like what? (now someone is going to explain the distinction for me)
The looters are the predators flowing along using the “peaceful demonstrators” as cover while looking for targets of opportunity. And the longer the mayors keep stressing the “mostly peaceful” the longer it will take for them to come to grips with the rioting problem.
Will we have enough sense to finally call out our own Colleges for creating these assholes in the first place?
Has anyone else noticed that the bulk of these violent, white anarchists are in their 20’s?
Where are the loosely connected “leaders” of these idiots? I get the impression that when the “chain of command” is exposed for all to see, many of them will be “teachers” and some politicians, not to mention some union members.
The real way to prevent this shit in the future is to clean out the source of the “infection” and that will lead us to many “places of higher learning”.
Root source.
Moderate or moderate sounding democrats are finding out what Trump found out back in January 2017. The government is booby trapped with anarchists. They are hidden in the government everywhere. But they are even more proliferate in democrat governments especially ones that are union controlled and have been in one party for decades. So, you may say that people like Lori Lightfoot and Tim Walz are ineffective or stupid or out of their league. This is not really the case. They are finding out now that they are surrounded by anarchists that are subverting them at every turn. Mayors and governors did not see it coming. They aren’t in the “in” group of anarchists . So when they create a plan its subverted. When they call for calm, they are maligned. They don’t know what happened to their powers. They seem to not be working anymore. Thats because the rioters are controlled within their own government and within their local press.
The grandchildren of 60s era radicals following their parents and grandparents footsteps establishing their credentials as preparation for entering careers in media, academia, politics, and NGOs.
