If these BLM idiots are stupid enough to attack Jewish synagogues or Jewish owned properties due to misguided zeal I fear they'll reap the whirlwind.

Yes, the JDL or its equivalent will swoop down and "administer justice" in a manner unlike any they've seen to date.

It might even lead to the development of a Hasidic KKK with nightriders in open top Mercedes' wearing shtreimel and tallits hurling fiery dreidels throughout the 'hoods.

A serious question is would the Israelis send a few agents to take out BLM leaders if the violence against Jews gets bad. Now, we are talking guys who stalk nuclear scientists in Iran. Who drive up to their cars on motorcycles and put magnetic bomb cases on them then rush away. In IRAN!

BLM leaders in the USA would be sitting ducks.

A precursor question is whether American blacks / BLM have true "leaders," individuals whose death would lead to diminution of the BLM movement.

Seems to me that the blacks have no leader or leaders any more, so cutting off the head won't kill the snake.

Why are there no self-proclaimed black leaders these days?

Where is the new MLK?

Hell, even a Jesse Jackson clone would do.

Its a very diverse group
There should be no singular leader just as there is no singular leader for any diverse group

Why are blacks even supposed to have "leaders?" That one always got me. Do whites have "leaders" to tell them what to think and do? What about Asians? Why did blacks always have someone "in charge" like that?

Exciting payer to watch (even when he's cutting down my Rangers). A starting pitcher who hits everyday and excels in both roles hasn't happened in a long time. I noticed that when he pitches, the Angels don't use a DH. DH doesn't have to sub for the pitcher. Seems like it would be smart to use the DH for one of the weaker hitting position players.

If you like Shohei Ohtani for MVP, looks like you can get him at +1100. He's behind teammate Mike Trout who's at +225.

Ohtani pitching tonight
And
He is still leading the league in home runs
Also leading the league in extra base hits
Amazing
Bought a subscription to MLB streaming just so I can watch Ohtani

BLM protestors are too smart
You are describing Trumpers that attacked the Capitol
There is no BLM leadership
I'm a BLM protestor
Nobody speaks for me
Any BLM person claiming leadership is a paper tiger and generally ignored except for right wing media.

It's really akin to what Will Rodgers said. "I dont belong to an organized party. I'm a Democrat"
