You're trying to blame Trump for starting something that already exists. And people have been dying because of it. And all sides of the culture conflict must be exposed, including those from the "left." And you're not helping with these sort of divisive political lies. |

I remember when a couple of American hikers were touring the Iran border and got captured....many said they were stupid for putting themselves in danger..I feel that way about this....my Dad is about the age of the Buffalo "activist"....if my dad was thinking about bumbling through a police line during violent protests I'd tell him he wasn't being very smart and probably take away his car keys.... |

Trumps supporters are the ones sacking cities, beating innocent people to a pulp, burning buildings, and murdering cops? Those are Trumplicans doing that? Not BLM and ANTIFA and other lefties? Interesting... |

Or an Antifa commander about to strike. He was a also Catholic social worker, I'm afraid the church has been compromised. I do hope Jim is at full attention when he's taking communion. It could be any one of them. |

you just have to laugh at some of this....
JUNE 10, 2020 4:59 AM
Arizona State University revoked a job offer from its incoming journalism school dean after students and faculty accused her of "microaggressions," including a tweet that called some police officers "good."
Sonya Forte Duhé was due to take over as dean of ASU's Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication on July 1, but her offer was revoked on Monday after former students lodged complaints about comments they perceived as rude. Duhé was also criticized for her #BlackOutTuesday post that called some police officers good, in light of the George Floyd protests.
In a since-deleted tweet, Duhé wrote, "for the family of George Floyd, the good police officers who keep us safe, my students, faculty and staff. Praying for peace on this #BlackOutTuesday." One of Duhé's former students, Whitney Woods, responded by calling the professor racist. "There is no way in hell that black lives matter to you," Woods tweeted. "You are one of, if not, THE most racist human that I have ever encountered in a professional setting.
