The "needles" didn't change their tune. They consistently questioned or decried the rioting and looting. Most rhetorically asked what the violence was accomplishing. And they all recognized that not only were the protests merely "peaceful," but they included significant and very destructive, violent, behavior. And each one of what you refer to as a needle in a haystack, was actually not that rare. There are many who feel the way they do. And they are not difficult to find. Not to mention the obious others, some of whom you mentioned as needles in a haystack--Candace Owens, Larry Elder, Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams and lots more, some of whom have or have had videos that called out not only the violence that usually accompany these "peaceful" protests, But who even question the purpose and usefulness of orgs. like BLM.

The last video I posted, the interview with Bob Woodson, lays it all out very well, wisely, rationally, with history, evidence and statistics, and points out some of the stupid, corrupt, non-productive things and lies that keep a large segment of black society trapped into the stagnant bottom of society which prevents them from improving, but instead remaining the victims of other blacks and ignorant, well meaning whites.

If you're serious about solutions, watch the Woodson interview from the beginning to the very end. Or remain ignorant and think they are only needles in a haystack.

I have no idea of WTF you're talking about. I didn't say that supporting the protester equals not supporting the police. I didn't mention defunding the police.

Nor did I say that Trump doesn't act like an adult. A child or adolescent could not accomplish the things that Trump has. I'm just guessing, but I don't think you could either.

omg a budget cut now equals defunding ... the militarization of the police is the biggest issue and if you think they haven't been you haven't been paying attention..

Look at the crowds in the Streets across the country people are Tired of police who can shoot an un armed person and get away with it keep their jobs get promoted by just uttering I was in fear for my life I thought they had a weapon ..

Ive said this before we had more restraint in Iraq and rules of engagement where if my men or wanted to kill an Iraqi.. i thought he had a wepon wasnt going to fly...

Police officers job is inherently dangerous they have about the same chance being killed in their patrol car as the do being shot

30 years working in a prison seen use of force change with every new head of corrections and Governor, have been dealing with video for 15 years ..

The police had a chance to be involved with body cameras some embraced them others did not same with a tazer some use them as an additional tool others a short cut justifed in a report. But now people are watching. Demanding those who enforce the law shouldn't be above it or given special status to dispense it as the wish ... and if you feel equally upset over the death of floyd at the hands of law enforcement and the riots .. thats the problem because the 2 are not the same in .just
my opinion
