Wow, what courage (sigh).

I hope that she got her participation trophy.

[BenLurkin]

Ridiculous.

[Michael.SF.]

It is a good picture, Though I agree it is not in the league of Tank Man

[nopardons]

This idiot female is from NYC, is an unwed mother, who is a nurse's "helper". So HOW did she get the money and just WHY did she go down to Baton Rouge AND wear that planned getup?

Just WHO orchestrated all of this? It certainly wasn't the person in the picture!

[Ancient Man]

Photoshopped.

What garbage from the NY Slimes. To denigrate Tank Man by comparing him to some lightweight BLM protester? Disgusting. Tank Man would have been a red blotch on the pavement had less people been there. That black chick was in no such danger. That is one insulting comparison.

I nominate this smug, lefty drama queen for the Congressional Medal of Uhhhgly.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I don’t really see a “tank man” hero here. I do see a hoe down or some kind of square dance ritual.

[soycd]

What, no afro hairdoo?

[BookmanTheJanitor]

She knew she was perfectly safe there. Tank guy ...not so much.

[Vic S]

Full makeup, best dress, and ... her 15 minutes are over.

[doorgunner69]

Yeah, they so proud of the African thing they emulate white women’s hair...................

[Carthego delenda est]

I still think she looks less like a superhero, than the cops look silly in all their riot gear in front of her. Kinda looks like they’re dancing some kind of jig, the way the camera caught them.

[CrazyIvan]

“Photoshopped.”

How do you know? I’m serious. I know nothing about Photoshop.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

But, but.....she’s a “shrong, buh-lack wu-man! She’s a qweeeeen!” (Said in my best Black Panther voice)

These frikkin’ morons still think they are descendants from the Pharaohs. *snort*

[GOPJ]

BLM people aren't that heroic and the cops aren't that violent. The premise behind the picture is a lie. The lie takes away the power of the picture - well, to anyone other than a brain dead liberal ‘true believer’...

Oh, and most people think the New York Times is silly.

[W.]

Har! Good shot!

Let’s see, a lowly individual “worker” in a massive totalitarian dictatorship obstructing a tank column vs. a triply privileged American (a sainted black female bastard dropper) standing in front of the only people in America who currently suffer state-sanctioned discrimination (white males). Yeah, nice try cupcake. You don’t deserve to be on the same planet as the “tank man,” let alone be mentioned in the same sentence.
