Yes because every single white person alive today took part in that and/or condones that. Totally.

I believe they call that projection.

BLM was burning down entire city blocks and people were defending it.

And let’s not pretend that war and violence aren’t universal human tendencies. There’s a reason that one in every two hundred people is a descendant of Ghenghis Khan.

Oh do they call that projection?

Because here’s what it looks like when cops burn down entire city blocks, killing six adults and five children (Philadelphia MOVE bombing, 1985):

As opposed to when BLM burns down entire city blocks (never happened):

(Yeah a few cop shops got torched, killing no one)

for white people, deflection is always in fashion. there’s never a crime, wrongdoing or otherwise they can’t deflect and do the ole “but black people blah blah blah” or my new favorite “history blah blah blah.” they are never just wrong. someone else is wronger and therefore they shouldn’t be held accountable or responsible because someone else did a thing. smfhahahaha.

I’ve tried to find empathy and compassion for this child who has been taught to be a hateful racist and a violent white supremacist, and I just can’t.

He murdered two people. He crossed state lines with an assault rifle and he used it to murder two people. At seventeen years-old, this child felt he was entitled to grab his fucking ASSAULT RIFLE and take his too-young-to-buy-cigarettes self to another state, so he could carry out his white supremacist fantasies.

And here he is, drinking in a bar with Proud Boys, joyfully making a white power sign, after a sympathetic judge let him out of custody before trial. 

The kid who was crying yesterday? That kid isn’t crying because he’s remorseful for murdering two people and trying to murder a third. That kid is crying because his lawyers coached him to manipulate the jury that’s probably going to let him walk, anyway. If there is any real emotion behind this kid’s crocodile tears at all, it’s fear of accountability and prison.

Don’t be fooled. Don’t forget who this person is or what he did.
