Our president is supporting the law. That's why 162 unruly protestor went to jail during the past couple of weeks. He didn't let it get to the point of burning busunesses, looting, vandalism, and shootings. The arrest were all made by police officers who have his support.

The FBI was monitoring 'extremists' just like they always have. Just like they 'monitored' DNC and RNC conventions, that doesnt mean they felt the DNC and RNC were threats, but that someone may USE them to follow through on a threat.

AS far as condoning any kind of rioting or war, OBama never did that either.

Blacks and whites have ALWAYS been victims and assailants in violence. I have no idea what a woman confronting you or a kid running out of a play area has to do with Black Lives matter or is an indictment against blacks. But I have stopped being surprised at how easily it happens for some people to turn topics to 'the problem with black folks is ..."

or how few have a peep to say about those opinions compared to others.

The FBI is monitoring BLM and anti-fa. They are terrorist groups. Blacks joined in the rioting here in ATL when the saw the ones in Missouri getting away with it. They were burning black businesses and their own neighborhoods. There isn't any reasoning for their madness. Just a bunch of animals.

Saying it again doesnt make it true.

The FBI, AFTER the shooting at a BLM event, started monitoring the events, NOT THE BLM.

They are not a terrorist group, though being a social media, any terrorist can use the to find targets, like any other political group can be used to find targets.

the obsesssion with blacks is not healthy, just saying.

I watched a segment on tv about BLM and anti-fa. It's said the FBI is monitoring BLM and anti-fa. They didn't say 1 person who showed up to a meeting was being monitored. They said BLM is being monitored. You don't hear much from them these days so I would think the monitoring is working. They are laying low. Terrorism carries a big prison sentence.

The US government has declared “black identity extremists” a violent threat, according to a leaked report from the FBI’s counter-terrorism division.

The assessment, obtained by Foreign Policy, has raised fears about federal authorities racially profiling activists and aggressively prosecuting civil rights protesters.

The report, dated August 2017 and compiled by the Domestic Terrorism Analysis Unit, said: “The FBI assesses it is very likely Black Identity Extremist (BIE) perceptions of police brutality against African Americans spurred an increase in premeditated, retaliatory lethal violence against law enforcement and will very likely serve as justification for such violence.” Incidents of “alleged police abuse” have “continued to feed the resurgence in ideologically motivated, violent criminal activity within the BIE movement”.

I will take the FBI's words over hearsay about a TV 'segment'. They were not monitoring the BLM, they were monitoring for extremists who may use the BLM events.



and we don't 'hear' much about them, just like we don't 'hear' about a lot of things once other things take over the news cycle. That says little about anything except how news cycles work.

It said BLM hadn't been declared a terrorist group but that they were being monitored anyway. It's not hard to see what BLM WAS all about.

yes, Im sure the word "Black' in the title makes it very clear to some.

They were threatening to kill white kids in school shootings. We locked our schools down here. That says it all.

You can't do any better than that? Looks like the monitoring has weaken your favorite group. I'm sure a lot are doing time as nothing more than drug dealers and thieves.

Haaa, the bigotry is beginning to become its own meme. ... smh.

I give verifiable information to back up claims when challenged, instead of tangents of irrelevant bigotry and claims of what someone I saw or knew said or did.

Yeah because any normal person wouldn't quit their job and move out of town because of some teenage pranks. A simple warming shot and those teenagers would have ran. One more time. You don't see Sarah sander or kavanaugh running. Cartoons.

"normal' is in the eye of the beholder. Some may think its 'normal' to fire warning shots at teens, some may not.

some may prefer to avoid putting ANYONE in danger, and doing something else instead.

Yeah quitting your job and selling your home to move out of town makes perfect sence....said nobody ever.

except people who get promotions, or people who get married, or people who have a better opportunity somewhere else ...

Yeah, I didn't see the better job offer in the post

And I didnt see anything about anyone selling their home. But I am at least trying to respond to what has actually been posted.

You are right probably renters.

Acts of violence and destruction is never a way to protest anything a person disagrees with.

People that are involved in these groups should be arrested.

Also the group of women like #me too, supporters who tried to beat down the door, in Washington during that voting on Kavanaugh.

Total. Ignorance !!!
