2020 US Presidential Election

Once 5 people were on a plane...
1. Kanye West,
2. Bill Gates,
3. Donald Trump,
4. Joe Biden,
5. and a school girl

Suddenly the plane developed a technical snag and only 4 parachutes were available.

Kanye says, "I am world's greatest talent." He takes a parachute and jumps.

Gates says, "I have done so much philanthropy." He takes a parachute and jumps.

Trump tweets, "I am the leader of the world." He grabs a parachute, and jumps.

Biden says to the school girl, "You are the future of this planet. Go on, take the last parachute."

The school girl smiles and replies, "Joe, we have two parachutes. Trump took my school bag and jumped."
Actually, that's not how the joke goes. Biden goes up to the school girl and starts touching her and says, "Wait, where are we?"
 
The democrats don't support them either. Top Democrats have already condemned the violence. What's the death count on the riots again? Is it anywhere near that of COVID-19? That virus that those folks u wanna see in power downplayed to save the stock market?
How have they condemned it? Paid lip service?

Why aren't they condemning the racial targeting of white people?

The riots of BLM and Antifa have merged. They are working together but you hear nothing from Democrats.

That's because many of them are Democrat voters.

Lip service is all many of them can do. It should be noted that crime isn't only up in democratic run areas, so it's not as simple as the Dems won't do anything.

Miami, Tulsa and Oklahoma City all have high crime rates (Republican mayors) while Irvine California has a relatively low rate (Democratic).

Interestingly, the (almost consistently) safest per capita city over 150,000 in the US is Cary, NC which has an independent mayor who is pretty centrist and votes with Dems 53% of the time.

That's interesting to know. It should also be pointed out that murder in Jacksonville is way up as well.

A few exceptions doesn't matter. Most are metropolitan cities and most are Democrat. Minneapolis, Portland and Seattle seem to be among the worst but Chicago and large cities in California also - all Democrat.

The Republican ones are still the same pattern but Democrat mayors/governors are reacting differently which is a distinguishing factor which you and others ignore.

It's the liberal way.

It's also a demographics problem which you also ignore.

But if it's the Democrats' reaction that's the problem, why don't Republican officials reign in the crime in their cities? Why don't they set an example? If it's Democrats' policies that are the problem, why isn't it contained to blue cities?

Is it not possible that the problem is more complicated and neither political party gets all the blame?
 
Also, rereading this now, "finally kicked the bucket"?! And you think the Democrats are hateful? I don't think anyone in this thread has wished death on the President, or any other Republicans for that matter. I'm stunned to be honest. That's a really terrible thing to say.
Are you implying that I "wished death" on Ginsburg? If that's it, I'd like to know how this is possible, for a person who is already dead?

I don't know about you but I've seen memes, when Trump's brother died, that it was the "Wrong Trump." I have heard plenty of people, almost all Democrats, say that they wish him dead, over the past four years.

Ginsburg supposedly told her granddaughter, "My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed." If the Democrats were in the White House, would she have made that, her last wish?

It's her fault that Trump is now picking a judge, she should have retired, when Obama was president, if she didn't want a Republican to pick her replacement.

As for her opinions, she should also kept her mouth shut about the presidency. A judge is supposed to be impartial. She couldn't shut up, about Trump. Now, he is having the last laugh.

What is your opinion on this? Is there truth to this? Is any of the money that is donated to Black Lives Matter movement been given to black schools, black scholarships, black neighbourhoods or black initiatives?

I find it ironic that the Democrats are using celebrities to gain votes from people.

How do you want them to do that?

BTW, your example of Miami/Florida is pretty weak. The neocons there aren't much of an example.

But, generally, most of them are not encouraging crime like in the Democrat regions. Police departments are being defended, police are attacked and they have to deal with violent criminals who resist and fight back.

The Democrats have been passive and even encouraged the hostility and behavior.

Democrats stay silent on violence in their cities: Devine

The Democrats' embrace of BLM may be about to monumentally backfire

If they're not encouraging crime, why is it up? For real man, if the crime is the fault of Democrats, then why is there crime in Republican cities also. Examples from this thread include Jacksonville, Miami, Tulsa and Oklahoma City. That's four fair sized Republican cities. Now if it's not the fault of Democrats and you just don't think they condemn it strong enough, they've condemned it plenty.

And yeah, fuck the neocons. But they ain't Democrats or Liberals. They're generally worse.

Oh excuse me, you were happy she died. My mistake. Saying someone "finally died" is pretty harsh man. And those people online shouldn't have made comments about Trump or brother but that doesn't mean you should be here acting like someone's death is some great thing.

And come on man, none of the judges are impartial. On any side. And that's not a reason to talk about someone's death so callously anyway.

The only thing that I disagree with, about that quote, is that BLM is an organization of "white men", unless they are using men to represent everybody, which is fine. There are plenty of women, transgender, etc., people who run around claiming to be supporters of BLM.

It's all nonsensical, because as I explained in great depth, earlier in the thread, BLM, or anybody else, is not going to stop police brutality, which was BLM's original purpose, until the police unions are removed, but BLM and the Democrats, do not want to do this. So, the brutality and deaths will continue, with their permission.

Black Lives Matter is a political organization. There's nothing wrong or racist about them donating to political causes. It honestly should be expected. Democrats are getting the money because they're better for the BLM cause. They're the ones supporting real police reform. Even if it doesn't go far enough.

I think when Candace Owens was referring to "white men" she's talking about the white Democrats since they receive funding from the Black Lives Matter movement.

The police unions endorsed Trump. BLM is for the candidate not endorsed by the police union. Seems logical to me.

Candice Owens is a grifter who has been on every side of racial issues:

She has figured out recently though that she can make the *most* money being a black women embracing anti-BLM sentiment.

But the money should be going directly to benefit black people rather than donating to the Democrats.

The Democrats can go find some other ways to get donations from people rather than taking it away from black people.

BLM is not a broad "help all black problems" organization. Their aim is very, very specific and that is to stop police brutality that, while it affects everyone, affects black people disproportionately.

With that specific goal in mind, how do you think donations should be spent if not political lobbying?

If the goal is specifically to stop police brutality then why ask for donations in the first place if it is only used to donate to Democrats to fund their political campaigns?

I don't think donating BLM funds to the Democrats will make a difference at all then. Why should all that money be donated to Democrats where they could use that money to benefit black lives.

I know you say that the BLM movement is mainly about police brutality but I feel like it's not about police brutality anymore. It's more than that now.

I agree they shouldn't directly fund campaigns or politicians but "giving it to black people" isn't the purpose of BLM.

People can donate to those causes if they'd like to. It's not like BLM is lying to the public about where the money is going.

To add to this, @Lucifer, if you look at the history of BLM there is a reason that they clash with Republicans and therefore see them in opposition to their goals.

Earlier in the movement, BLM's activism had to do with kneeling at NFL games. Conservatives turned this into a wedge issue where Pence even walked out of a game when kneeling took place. They were called unamerican and "against the troops." So instead of talking about why they took that form of peaceful protest (which Kaepernick tried to explain over and over again), the athletes were vilified and Kaepernick even got kicked off his team.

Funnily enough, recently at a Kansas City Chiefs game, all the players decided not to kneel and instead "lock arms for racial solidarity and equality" and conservatives *booed* that which showed it wasn't about the flag at all and rather that one side seems just opposed to the existence if BLM no matter how peaceful and respectful the protest.

So if one group is expressly against your interest and even existence, you would want to support the other.

Another point is that this year Democrats introduced the "Justice In Policing Act" that was pretty comprehensive in dealing with the issue of police brutality and then the GOP in response wouldn't vote on it and put up a way watered down piece of shit in its place. It's obvious which party is better on this issue.

True but why don't the people donate directly to Democrats instead of using the BLM organisation to fund Democrats. These funds that BLM organisation have gained can be used for better things and shouldn't be used to fund political campaigns.

@FGG where do you reckon the donations that BLM organisation has received should go to instead?

It is common for various groups to fund political parties. BLM is a political organization and they donate to those who they feel will fight for their agenda. They're like any other political organization in that regard.

I think I answered you. They haven't condemned it. They are far left groups. Most of the crimes are minorities riots, blacks shooting other blacks or targeting whites. Or antifa of any race committing violence. Antifa came from Communist and/or Marxist political parties. BLM is a Marxist organization. The Founders were Marxist. The logo is from a radical, far left Communist (terrorist) organization in Africa. The background and history of these organizations are entrenched in far left politics and violence.

You and others just shrug off the truth. The Monkey wearing the blindfold. The head in the hole in the ground. Deny, ignore and deflect.

The MSM participates in censoring or ignoring what's happening. But, ironically, phones are capturing video of the reality and people are using social media. Facebook, YouTube and Twitter (although, slower to remove it) are trying to censor it but people are finding some sites to illustrate it.

BLM and Antifa are terrorizing people but it's the current trend to publicly support these animals. It's sad and reflects the reality of a sick, twisted society. Welcome to Clown World.
