Where the heck are all the violent protests
we've been hearing for months that would
be this conventions signature? I have seen
zip on the news, I had to go looking for it.
Some Code Pink screamers and a white
group yelling at BLM to get real jobs.
Pretty frightening stuff. Once again the press
was wrong about the mood of the country, big
surprise.

I haven't heard anything about that prediction
I protested with BLM at a trump rally, it was peaceful as expected
Why would there be violent protests?
Last cycle the repub convention was in my town, no violent protests.
Then again I don't watch fox. Was it fox that predicted violent protests?

This blind girl with cerebral palsy brought
down the house last night at the convention.
Right now Hillary's people are wringing
hands trying to get Stevie Wonder, a blind
black guy.

What a voice:

They are not "false" BLM, they are BLM.

I do not hear the leaders of BLM denouncing their actions.

I denounce the actions of false BLM
BLM is a movement, its not a card carrying org

You mean like god helped the
Jews during the Holocaust? That
god seems rather impotent, don't
you think.

Are you in the same reality as the rest of us? It has been talked about for months. The city was preparing for riots. BLM came out and said they would target the convention. Given the history of anti-Trump protestors rioters any reasonable person would expect this to be the dream protest week for every liberal wingnut group with a grievance.

They are not calling themselves "false BLM." They are calling themselves BLM. They are BLM. The public does not distinguish any difference.

What does that have to do with a god? We
had 40 times the production power of Germany,
the war was over the day we entered it.

Where was god when the Nazi's were killing
thousands of his chosen people a day in gas
chambers. He was right where he always was,
at the NP with Santa and delivering eggs
with the Easter Bunny. He was where all myths
live, in peoples minds, not in reality.
