So I got a phone call from my 88-year-old black dad asking if I am familiar with “The View” TV show. I told dad the show is riddled with liberal bias. Dad said the show featured a horrific incident in which a young black male was unfairly shot by police. As best I could, I tried to explain to dad how irresponsible it was for the TV show to feature a rare “bad shoot” in the midst of cops being murdered nationwide. Despicably, the TV show wanted to do its part to further Black Lives Matter's evil lie that cops murder blacks at will.
I bombarded dad with facts and stats which prove that blacks are the greatest threat to black lives, not racist white cops. When I hung up the phone, I felt dad still leaned towards believing the lie promoted on “The View.” It is frustrating, folks.

Thanks for posting.
We all need to thank Lloyd Marcus for what he is doing for America!
Thanks, Lloyd, and God Bless you!
At least the man listened. Should give him credit for that at least.
Who knows? Over time he’ll see the propaganda machine is just that.
Standard TV stations look hard for any incident in which on “innocent” black youth is shot by an “evil” white cop. Then that becomes the major news story for days, weeks, or months at a time. Same story, over and over again.
Just imagine a news station which focused on the many incidents in which an criminal black youth victimized innocent white people. You could do 10 incidents a day. Every day different. It would never stop. Incident after incident after incident.
And people would howl about that racist TV station and how it was causing racial division in the country.
Our progressive, left, cultural-marxist government accepts BLM’s views.
Stop surrendering? Hell, they are already within parts of our government.

Lloyd...your dad watches The View?
OK den..
The Black Lives Murder movement is indeed — for now — entrenched, but it can be neutralized if not stopped. Will just take strong leadership and hard work by everyone to overcome the racial damage caused primarily by the federal government over the past 7.5 years.
I know, right? Lloyd needs to pass by his dad’s house and block what ever channel they appear on. :)
Stand up to and stop tyranny before tyranny imprisons or kills you.
Care to tell us, who have no clue what that picture is, what it is a picture of?
Thanks, Lloyd, and God Bless you!
Might help to use his FR screen name . . .The natural disposition is always to believe. It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough. The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing.The man whom we believe is necessarily, in the things concerning which we believe him, our leader and director, and we look up to him with a certain degree of esteem and respect. But as from admiring other people we come to wish to be admired ourselves; so from being led and directed by other people we learn to wish to become ourselves leaders and directors. And as we cannot always be satisfied merely with being admired, unless we can at the same time persuade ourselves that we are in some degree really worthy of admiration; so we cannot always be satisfied merely with being believed, unless we are at the same time conscious that we are really worthy of belief. As the desire of praise and that of praise-worthiness, though very much a-kin, are yet distinct and separate desires; so the desire of being believed and that of being worthy of belief, though very much a-kin too, are equally distinct and separate desires.
The desire of being believed, the desire of persuading, of leading and directing other people, seems to be one of the strongest of all our natural desires. - Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759)
