  1. I quote a meme that I have just received”it’s horrible that shops have been destroyed, but killing innocent black men has to stop!” How exactly you think this could stop? Which is the “peaceful” non-violent way that has to be adopted? After having a black president, I believe that democracy is not the way that will lead to stop these black people looting.

    I have seen many peaceful protests turned into riots by the attack of the police… so who is the violent here? If you don’t allow to protest you will get riot!

    1. I believe that we need to clarify something. There are three classes of people on the streets: peaceful protestors, rioters/looters, and professional agitators. This article was aimed mainly at condemning the agitators and rioters/looters who are wrongfully taking advantage of the tragic death of George Floyd.

      To be clear, I support the sentiments of the peaceful protestors. I also want criminal justice and law enforcement reform. However, we cannot let minority communities get destroyed.

  2. I disavow anyone trying to perpetrate violence against peaceful protestors. It is a person’s right to defend oneself (in accordance with state laws) if that person’s life is in danger. However, our Constitution also protects the right to peacefully protest. This article was talking about the agitators and the rioters who are undermining the aim of peaceful protests, which is to achieve justice.

    1. All 4 cops who were involved in the death of George Floyd are now sitting in a jail cell. What more justice could anyone ask for at this point in time? But, as with all actions of Liberals or other Social Justice Warriors, the issue is never the issue. These rioters are using this man’s death as an excuse to bring about the utopian revolution. They all fantasize that they will be in charge afterwards. They are deluded at best. The same people, or at least the same type of people, who are in charge now will be in charge later. The only difference is that they will have way more power & control over other people’s lives than they do now.

      1. While I do believe that conservatives need to resist cultural Marxism, I am a pragmatist. Let’s respond to cultural Marxism with free-market solutions. Respond to the protestors’ demands not with silence, but a freedom-based and capitalist alternative. I’ll be addressing the conservative response in my next three articles.

  3. There comes a point when words are not enough. We are at that point.
