I'm Confused............
Cliffs? Don't do cliffs, too much to read, don't read it.
I’m so confused right now. I see signs all over saying black lives matter. I’m just trying to figure out which black lives matter. It can’t be the unborn black babies. They are destroyed without a second thought. It’s not black cops. They don’t seem to matter. It’s not my black conservative friends. They are told to shut the **** up if they know what’s best for them by their black counterparts. It’s not black business owners. Their property does not mean anything. It’s not blacks who fought in the military. Their statues are destroyed by the black lives matter protesters with disdain. So which black lives matter again? I can’t keep up. I just can’t. I’m exhausted trying to figure out what we’re all supposed to do, believe, and be offended and outraged by next. Two months ago, First Responders were all the rage. In fact, they were heroes. We gave them free coffee, meals, and cheers as they drove by. Today we hate them and want them defunded because they can’t be trusted. Two months ago, truck drivers were the heroes, as well, for keeping America moving and the grocery stores stocked. Today we block the roads with protesters, drag them out of the cabs and beat them half to death. Nurses and Doctors are still cool for now. But they may be unemployed. They too are heroes, unless of course they truly believe all lives matter. Then they’re filled with hate and are part of problem like so many others. Just 45 days ago protests weren’t “essential” and were considered criminal, selfish and a murderous activity. Today they are gloriously critical and celebrated. All of the obvious criminal and murderous activities are simply ignored. If you protest about lockdowns for freedom, you are selfish and you will spread a virus. If you protest, loot, and riot for social justice, you are a warrior and the virus cedes. Trust the experts. No, not those experts. Don’t wear masks ... wear masks, but only good ones. Wait, don’t wear masks, wear anything as a mask. Nevermind on the masks. Not sure, but if you don’t, you hate people because you could be an asymptomatic spreader. Wait. That's not a thing anymore? For 3 months, NOTHING was more important than social distance. In fact, we gave up all of our liberties for it. We canceled schools, medical and dental procedures, yet allowed the murder of babies, canceled activities, closed businesses, eliminated every spring rite of passage from prom to graduation, denied people funerals, even at Arlington, and we wrecked the economy for it. Then came social justice, and social distance was no more. Now things are more cut and dry though. A thousand people at three memorials for someone they never even met. It's a matter of "respect". But you can only assemble 100 or less people. Black Lives Matter. Of course they do. Then multiple black police officers and individuals were killed during the “peaceful protests”. I don’t see any outrage. Black individually owned businesses burned to the ground. Silence. Deadliest weekend in Chicago. NOTHING!! I’m really confused now. Look at the data, NO, not that data. Do the math. No, you can’t do the math like that. Only the experts can understand the data and math. What do you mean other cities/states/governors are interpreting the data differently? Pools are safe in Indiana, but not Michigan? Playgrounds are safe in your town but not mine? Amusement parks are safe in Florida but not Ohio, nor Michigan. Just listen to the black community leaders. No, not them. If you are silent you are part of the problem. If you speak, you are part of the problem. If you have to ask, you don’t understand. If you don’t ask, you don’t care. It’s all so predictable, tedious, and exhausting. Nothing adds up. It’s one gigantic common core Math life problem, with ever changing denominators that I’m sure the media and politicians are eagerly ready to solve for us....until the next "crisis". So for now I pray. I pray God will heal our land and bless the United States of America. Forwarded, author unknown.

Black Lives Matter is the biggest racist organization in this country.

BLM and Antifa are funded and directed by the same foundations.

Numbers matter to those that value FACTS, clearly not to those that have an agenda that benefits from LIES. (Antifa BLM)
Let us review some statistics: https://www.bjs.gov/index.cfm?ty=tp&tid=84 How many total interactions did offers have with citizens? How many interactions resulted in death of an officer? How many WHITE suspects were killed by officers? How many BLACK suspects were killed by officers? How many murders of black people were there by a black individual? Numbers DO NOT matter to these people.... I'm so done with this BS and the sheeple that are incapable of independent thinking. |

Check out M4BL, BLM parent org.... But unless you go to here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movement_for_Black_Lives you wouldn't know that BLM is part of M4BL. Hence, all the people promoting BLM don't necessarily know of the more sinister motives behind the parent group On the surface, BLM sounds innocent enough. On the surface, M4BL sounds like shit with defund the police, reparations, anti-capitalism, and Marxist narrative without mentioning the idiot himself. |

Nancy Green should be upset and rolling in her grave. I have one unopened box of Aunt Jemima pancake mix and one bottle of syrup. Should I open it or save it?
