#BlackLivesMatter Protesters Shut Down Freeway in Minneapolis

In Response to Jamar Clark's Shooting
quote:
Protesters with Black Lives Matter shut down Interstate 94 near downtown Minneapolis for several hours Monday night.
Hundreds of protesters blocked the westbound side of the highway from 7th St. to Broadway. It’s in response to the officer-involved shooting of Jamar Clark.
quote:
Authorities at the scene ordered protesters to disperse from the highway at about 8 p.m., and that they would be arrested if they didn’t comply.
Arrests began at around 9 p.m. Protesters were taken into police custody one-by-one, but enough remained to keep traffic blocked. Police say the 43 adults and 8 juveniles who were arrested will be charged with “pedestrian on freeway” and “unlawful assembly.”
After all protesters either left or were arrested, a heavy police presence stayed on the highway to make sure the area was safe. Traffic resumed shortly before 10 p.m.

The best part about all these protests is that at some point, the most damaging revelation will become apparent to all who support these idiots as well as the ones ruining college campuses:
NO ONE GIVES A frick ABOUT YOU. NO ONE CARES. We are too busy with making a living and trying to progress our lives in stead of whining like little children. Your insane narcissism leads you to believe you are actually important. You aren't. I'm not. I just choose to get on with my life and not blame it on anyone else. Personal responsibility, hard work, earning what you have, and doing your part for society is completely lost on these people.

Black lives only matter if a white person or a cop is involved. I'd take their bullshite marches/protests seriously if they actually cared about senseless killings. ie a young boy getting murdered in an alley in Chicago.

Terrorists under gang leader Obama.

I haven't seen evidence for this yet.
While the common man understands the bullshite of #BLM, leadership has shown nothing but support and compassion.
The presidents of universities abide by what the #BLM wants, and the POTUS has voiced his support. One of the nation's largest businesses (Google) has donated millions to the "movement."
Right now angry black people and their white guilt allies are mostly a nuisance, but I think it's going to get worse over the next 12 months.

I don't think the CW and BET covers these types of things. Too many Moesha reruns to keep showing

Who the frick is Jamar Clark?

Its just a way to drive black voters for the election. They won't get any air time after the elections are over.

Blue state, IDGAF.

At least the cops cleared them

These people need to figure out that this makes us more racist towards them. Because this shows how stupid and selfish they are.

Yea, I will take them seriously when they take their protests to the ghettos of major cities like Chicago where thousands of blacks are killed by blacks in senseless acts of violence.

Only if you are racist ahead of time. I personally am not racist, but I treat anyone agreeing with BLM or the idiots on college campuses with the same disdain as people who wear flat billed hats or white sunglasses: they are obviously too stupid for normal people to even bother with. Not worth hard working, tax paying citizens' time.

How racist and insensitive of me to not realize that...apologies, I don't recognize my white privilege on Tuesdays until around 0930

I'm starting to see similarities to Islam and its radical extremist members.
The #BLM is brainwashed. There is no reasoning with them. There is nothing you can do to even have a conversation with them. Their ideology tells them that white supremacy has oppressed them to the point that they kill each other. That even with affirmative action and the lowering of standards, they are still at such a disadvantage that they are barely surviving.
Their leaders reinforce this. Even the POTUS reinforces their beliefs.
They will never protest black neighborhoods in Chicago because they sincerely believe it is the white neighborhoods in Chicago that have caused their violence.
This is a 20-year project in education. You have to bring about a new generation of Americans that are not looking through the lens of the Al Sharptons. And unfortunately, we're seeing at our best academic institutions that there is not only no effort to fix this problem but also leaders that want to perpetuate it.
