JJGreen Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Law and order, constitutional support, economic growth, border security - those are the issues that most Americans will think about when they go to vote. I am ignoring all the loony-left narrative of some TV posters - a wise man once said 'never wrestle with pigs, all you will get is poo poo all over you, and the pig loves it.' This is an example of the media lies and distortions that America has had a gutfull of and why Trump will win: Posted by a black woman who supports Trump and wants someone to do something about the black thugs and criminals who are ruining her City - the 'narrative' approach has failed and the social worker mentality is only making it worse. What are the figures for white policeman killing blacks v white?Really...that graph is just distortion and misdirection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really...that graph is just distortion and misdirection Really? Then how about this 'distortion' : This twitter exchange happened after the bombing in NY last weekend. The current riots in Charlotte, fueled by BLM hatred, were after a black cop killed a black man carrying a gun. That my friend is 'distorted' left-wing lunacy and hypocrisy !

Linzz Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Well I don't really think smashing shop windows and looting is a protest. It's opportunists taking advantage of the mayhem. Or will it be excused because they are an underclass? I can't imagine any TVF member being OK with their shop being pillaged if they had one. I saw a grand daughter of M L King asking for peaceful protest and also one victim's family calling for the same. Not the brother of another victim who on tv said all whites were devils. Having said that though I wonder if the cops are a little trigger happy regardless of their color. But if owning a gun is so easy I guess I would be nervous too if I were a cop.

Invoking Martin Luther King in an attempt to shame people who think that police should stop killing black people. Yes, please tell us more about how the Blacks should behave. And what happens when they marched all those years ago in such peaceful formation? "Two days after the Bloody Sunday of Selma, Martin Luther King Jr. organized another protest during which police yet again violently opposed peaceful demonstrators." https://www.yahoo.com/news/bloody-sunday-martin-luther-king-selma-alabama-50th-anniversary-220954437.html?ref=gs It's like saying that Rosa Parks should not have complained about her seat on the bus. She should have been grateful at being allowed on it in the first place. Well I guess this presumption at instructing African Americans on how to process comes from a Brexiteer. Someone who actively promotes racism and bigotry to defend the interests of Little England and Little Englanders to poke the nose into everyone else's business.

Jingthing Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) I think demonizing the entire BLM movement over some unpleasant incidents and statements will just backfire. It's a movement that needs to be taken seriously and that increases the chances peaceful solutions can be developed. I can see in the middle of an election year, it's a political minefield for both parties. Edited September 23, 2016 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicog Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Talking of Trump rising, I notice today that Rasmussen have laughably put him six points in front of Clinton nationally - a difference of 12 points over the last NBC/WSJ poll.

Her attack ads do nothing but call him names like liar, bigot, and racist. And she admonishes him for name-calling... So basically the same as the majority of posters in the "Obama: Trump ‘woefully unfit’ to be President" thread. I wondered where they got their lead from.

Look at one poll and its Trump look at another its Hillary. Of course it's close, which tells us everything we need to know as to how undesirable a candidate Clinton is. If she was better or Trump was worse she'd be ahead in double digits. That she has spent multi millions of money on ads while he has spent sod all says that she is a terrible choice for the Dems to put up. Bernie would be doing far better than she is.
