I'm sorry and I hope you can find a place in your heart to understand. This is the reaction they want to get from you.
Enlighten me! Help me understand? Should I find it in my heart to condone the "peaceful" protest?

Nahh...Its not affecting you is it? You have to remember this is really tame compared to what weve seen in the past, although I haven't been watching tonight yet.

So, you're assuming the actions of a few hundred rioters represents the entire BLM movement? Interesting.
I'd go out on a limb and assume that the vast majority of BLM activists are peaceful and don't condone this behavior.
Perhaps I'm naïve or misinformed but advocating for equal rights is not a joke. You know, liberty and justice for all.
Its a fact, not a rumor, that blacks were not considered equal for nearly the first 200 years of our Country's existence.
I can imagine that might make me a tad angry, knowing my ancestors were enslaved, my people oppressed for centuries.
The media paints a picture to suit their desired narrative. If you don't like the way events are portrayed on one media outlet, try a different network. (Fox News is probably a good place for a BLM hater, I'd imagine)
I truly wish we could stop talking about race altogether and focus on acceptance, understanding and unity as human beings.

Month after month we watch BLM protesters walk our cities streets, loot, disrupt, and kill.
