As the sun was setting and the crowd of protesters outside the federal courthouse grew larger, a loud voice echoed from the front lines of the demonstration.

“Don’t tell me how to protest,” a young Black man shouted at a white protester. “Don’t tell me what to do.”

The message is dead. It was dead the first store was looted. It was dead when the first driver was met with armed gunmen and detained. It was dead when the first projectile was hurled at a police officer, local or Federal. It was dead when the first statue was pulled down by a rabid mob that didn't even know it's history. F* all of you commie bastards. F*every one of you lefty yahoos going full Karen over this post. Every last one of you.

The blacks are just props to be used by the Democrats.

Another flavor of useful idiots.

They don’t want people to know their “message,” which is that of Marxist revolution.

“The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken, tricked or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together and solve our own problems. I only cite these things to show you that in America, the history of the white liberal has been nothing but a series of trickery designed to make Negros think that the white liberal was going to solve our problems. Our problems will never be solved by the white man.” Malcolm X

If there message is not, destroy the government. Then I would say their message is lost. I wish we would stop paying these rioters $600 dollars a week to riot. I wish they would open schools so the teachers can stop rioting and go back to work.

Our message needs to be “democrat riots”.

Rather than make it appear that they are for something, and they’re not, I would refer to them as being the “U.S. Anti-American riots of 2020”.

When someone pulls a lever in November, I would like them to know which party is supporting the riots. These are democrat riots. Obama’s friends are behind them. Trump is fighting them. Democrat mayors are letting them happen. Democrat prosecutors are letting the riots out of jail as fast as they are arrested. Democrat teachers have taught the rioters to hate America. If everyone voted republican the riots would stop.

If the Black message is anything other that the communist destruction and take over of America and avowed hatred of all white people. I would have say their message has been lost.

Too late—the leftist white billionaire kleptocrats have taken over “the movement” now....That is why the leftist mayors are whoring themselves out and opposing law and order in their cities.

The big money donors to the leftist mayors are the big money donors to Antifa and BLM.

Those who pay the piper makes the rules.

The “poor oppressed” are actually the pawns of the kleptocrat Deep State.

Come on, of course the white liberals are telling you what to do. That’s what they’ve been doing for hundreds of years.

Now shut up and vote for (D) so that your city can continue to be a dumpster fire (set by white liberals.)

Huh. Black people being used by nasty, selfish Democrats to advance their own interests, while keeping the black people they use in the back of the bus.

Who’d a thunk it?
