So Only Some Lives Matter
Dear Editor,
Black Lives Matters, the organization, are lying hypocrites who don’t give a damn about black lives. If they did, they would be in the streets of NYC and especially Chicago demanding action.
But even though black children, infants, are being shot and killed in outrageous numbers, they are not going to say squat for two reasons. One, those killings don’t fit their agenda, and two, and this is where they are exposed to be the lying hypocrites they are: The killers are not white male law enforcement. And anyone who buys into their lies is obviously an undereducated, brain-dead, zombie that is incapable of thinking for themselves.
And anyone who says, “all lives matter”, or “blue lives matter,” is viciously attacked by these people because their overlords have ordered them to. Again, they are lying hypocrites who don’t really care about black lives as proven by their lack of action on behalf of these families who have lost loved ones.
The military wing of BLM, Antifa, continues to besiege the federal courthouse in Portland. Ask yourself why. Why are they so intent on destroying this courthouse? It’s because this is their Bastogne. This is their Battle of the Bulge. They took down a police precinct and for a while had their own occupied territory. That became the basis for their momentum. We took down a local police station, now it’s time to prove our real power and take down a federal building. But they could only do it if they had a compliant local government that would not interfere. If they can take down this federal building they will have the rallying event to push things nationwide.
The (National Socialist) Democrat party is also compliant in all this. Again, without their tacit approval, none of this would have gone as far as it has. They honestly believe that if and when they come to power with the help of BLM, Antifa and the other Marxist/communist organizations they are in bed with, they will be in complete charge. Wrong! They will be the first to the guillotine.
By the way, I encourage you to look up the National Socialist Party and you will understand why I use that term when referring to the Democrat Party.
Unless things change, we, the true American people, will have to once again stand on the village green and face the hordes.
Alan Marshall
As always, Alan is right on the money! BLM officially stands of Bureau of Land Management. When I refer to BLM I mean Burn, Loot, Murder or Bugs Lives Matter. Saw a car on Holden Road this week with BLM written on the back window and on the side “Black Lives Matter to this White Woman.” I assume she lives in a neighborhood where she is fearful and therefore must tag her car to protect herself. Surely, no one is really that ignorant. And hopefully she knows writing on car windows that impedes ability to see is unlawful. Oh, wait. Unlawful is on the BLM agenda! Thank God there are enough of us who realize how anti-American, anti-social, and racist this “movement” is and will proclaim our intelligence in November.
Alan Marshall, I agree with you COMPLETELY, however, You have used words that goes back in time. Since, none of the Bozos know anything about history, I am afraid it will fall on deaf ears! Maybe, we can take them by surprise!!!
Once again Alan Marshall has hit the proverbial nail square on the head. Alan though, left out some pertinent data. Indeed, a more accurate name should be “Some Black Lives Matter.” If, however, you’re a black cop or a black baby still in the womb, your life doesn’t mean anything to these dirt bags. Further, the acronym “BLM” really means Burn Loot and Murder.
Phew, you were only talking about the organization and not the movement.
BLACK LIVES MATTER.
Red lives matter, white lives matter, blue lives matter, black lives matter, brown lives matter, yellow lives matter, unborn lives matter, ALL LIVES MATTER.
Someone came up with what supposed to be a counter to the All Lives Matter theme. “All lives won’t matter until black lives matter. This is a racist comment. It’s racist because it’s saying one race is worth more then any other.
My favorite part: “anyone who buys into their lies is obviously an undereducated, brain-dead, zombie that is incapable of thinking for themselves”
In other words, agree with Alan’s thinking and don’t think any other way or your viewpoint isn’t valid and you are just following the beliefs that someone (other than Alan) told you to believe.
It’s obvious enough to anyone who hasn’t already decided that good is evil and evil is good, that up is down and down is up, or that thugs should have more rights than black children in the ‘hood.
Nice try, but you really should read it carefully and engage brain before opening mouth.
What I’m saying is there are people (on both sides) who don’t research, explore, compare, or reason. They simply blindly accept whatever anyone tells them and act on it based on what that person(s) tell them.
The most important word that is sadly missing in all of the protests is FORGIVENESS. It frees the heart and heals the soul.
I totally agree with every thing you said.
If youse guys would carry a packet of self-sticking capital letters of the letter A
and afix it between the letter L and M to every place BLM is painted
it would alter the message.
B L M becomes B L A M!
This should be sent to the “News”and Record for all their liberal audience to read. You are spot on.
If George Floyd had been gunned down by another black thug, we probably would never have heard his name. Black lives matter, but mostly to whites, and certainly not to BLM (Burn, Loot and Murder).
In reference to Mr. Alan Marshall’s letter to the editor, I completely agree with his comments. He nailed it absolutely on point in reference to the BLM movement and Antifa. I also believe that these two organizations do somewhat (very loosely) work together. They are gaining political power from the left wing of the Democratic Party and additional support from the local Democratic Politicians and Party. They are well financed, and encourage the participants in the rioting to loot everything they can and they also pay the rioters, especially the leaders, to be destructive and work to disrupting the lives and businesses of the area. The truth about these organizations must be made public (The History and the Bios) about the founders is easily read on line. But the people that they encourage to do the rioting, do not have the Computer skills to read the info, nor look for the info about the leaders. The Truth about the organizations is available to the public, if only they would look it up and read it!
Alan, you are so correct. BLM and Antifa should be labelled as terrorist organizations. These organizations will stop short of nothing to reach their goals. Federal courthouses must be protected at all cost. The buildings do not just hold court, they are the location of all types of federal offices where many dedicated citizens work to make this country great. When anarchists are trying to burn down or take over these buildings, they cannot be classified as “peaceful protesters”. Look at the way they are dressed. Peaceful protesters don’t wear wartime protective gear. The time for multiple arrests and convictions of these thugs has long past. Like the bumper stickers we see around town: “When they start lootin’ it’s time for shootin’
Alan, excellent post. Kuddos to the rest of you. Your comments tell me you are not sheep. Let’s remember that Black Lives Matter (BLM) is a Marxist organization and, unfortunately, is conning people out there who believe that they are helping black lives when they go to their website and donate money. That money actually goes to the Democrat Party. What a scam! Black lives matter, blue lives matter and all lives matter. The radical left Democrat party, including BLM and Antifa, is anti-American and pro-Chinese. They will stop at nothing to gain power: voter fraud, riot, burn, loot, destroy, kill. We have a serious problem in America my fellow citizens. The 2020 Election is the most important election of my lifetime and yours. #Jobs!! Not Mobs!
I think there is a difference between the movement and the radical leftist‘s that have hijacked it.
The movement is by well-intentioned folks who feel empowered to make a difference – good for them, that is American!!
The other part is a narrative that is not aligned with BLM or anything else American – and it’s ruining the image of the movement and our progress.
We’ve burned witches, we’ve displaced native people, we have not always been nice but we have always moved past it and gotten better and we can continue to do so. Let’s not fight it – let’s work together!
Ty
Have we? Have we really?
We burned witches and moved past it to displace native people and enslave black people. We moved past that to use legislation to keep “lesser” in their place. We haven’t yet moved past that.
If you read through all the comments, you will find agreements alongside statements that justify it, like:
The people that participate in protests are not smart enough and are computer illiterate so they can’t know anything at all about the organizers or people involved. (Edward Michael Goldyn)
“When they start lootin’, it’s time for shootin’” – a quote drenched in racist history and clearly saying death or being shot is appropriate punishment for vandalism, theft, and property damage AND either assumes everyone at a protest is breaking the law or lethal force is okay because they were there whether they have done anything wrong or not. (AB Nelson)
Someone with a sticker on their car that says “Black Lives Matter to the White Woman” could only be there because the owner is either ignorant or fearful, that there is no possibility that any white woman could actually agree or empathize with the challenges black and brown people face simply because of the color of their skin. (Sherry McBee)
And finally, in the original post suggesting that anyone that doesn’t agree with Alan is not a “true American”.
We all have the freedom to evaluate the information available to us, formulate ideas, and establish our own sets of beliefs. Very often, those beliefs are different because, at least in part, we have vastly different lives experiences. I encourage everyone to work a lot harder at listening. Not talking or writing or responding, but listening and thinking. Work harder to hear and understand a different perspective. Ask and seek WHY someone has different beliefs and check-in to see if you are understanding that, rather than getting riled up by trying to “disprove” them or make them see your view. Use the golden rule – treat others as you want them to treat you. I assume you want others to listen to your views, so take the time and energy to listen to theirs.
“We burned witches and moved past it to displace native people and enslave black people. We moved past that to use legislation to keep “lesser” in their place. We haven’t yet moved past that.”
You say “We haven’t yet moved past that.” Please be more specific. Who is “WE”? Not me, and I’ll venture to speak for Ty and say not him.
“The people that participate in protests are not smart enough and are computer illiterate so they can’t know anything at all about the organizers or people involved. (Edward Michael Goldyn)”
So you are saying that every person protesting is fully informed and hasn’t simply listened to others and took their words as gospel. Oh the examples I could site.
““When they start lootin’, it’s time for shootin’” – a quote drenched in racist history and clearly saying death or being shot is appropriate punishment for vandalism, theft, and property damage AND either assumes everyone at a protest is breaking the law or lethal force is okay because they were there whether they have done anything wrong or not. (AB Nelson)”
AB was specific about separating peaceful protestors from rioters, looters and vandals. As for appropriate punishment, if police are allowed to do their jobs and the court system does its job instead of operating a revolving door I would agree with you. But when LEO is given the equivalent of stand down orders, being told to not arrest or detain looters, vandals, and rioters who are clearly breaking the law then it’s time for people to defend themselves, their families and their property meeting force with the appropriate level of force to stop the attack.
“Someone with a sticker on their car that says “Black Lives Matter to the White Woman” could only be there because the owner is either ignorant or fearful, that there is no possibility that any white woman could actually agree or empathize with the challenges black and brown people face simply because of the color of their skin. (Sherry McBee)”
So she is not allowed to express her opinion? I can tell you that I know people that have said they intentionally avoid expressing an opinion or wearing certain items of clothing in public for legitimate, documented concerns for personal safety,
“And finally, in the original post suggesting that anyone that doesn’t agree with Alan is not a “true American”.”
As for your “And finally”, I didn’t say if you disagree with me you are not a true American. I am saying if you are actively working, thru the use of force and violence, to usurp, undermine, or advocate for the overthrowing of our hard won Republic, I question your loyalty to this country. If that is a problem, deal with it.
You seem to have tried to use my own rhetoric against me, so let me clarify as best as I can for you.
—You say “We haven’t yet moved past that.” Please be more specific. Who is “WE”? Not me, and I’ll venture to speak for Ty and say not him. — In this statement, I am saying WE as a society. I am saying ALL OF US have not moved past it. WE as a nation still have systems in place to suppress people though not overtly based upon the color of their skin.
—So you are saying that every person protesting is fully informed and hasn’t simply listened to others and took their words as gospel. Oh the examples I could site. — I am saying that Edward Micheael Goldyn has overgeneralized and described people he doesn’t know anything about as too stupid to comprehend – he and you have no clue of any individual’s understanding. Besides, I don’t think you took the time to discover how a computer works for yourself yet you trust those that make them for you.
— AB was specific about separating peaceful protestors from rioters, looters and vandals. As for appropriate punishment, if police are allowed to do their jobs and the court system does its job instead of operating a revolving door I would agree with you. But when LEO is given the equivalent of stand down orders, being told to not arrest or detain looters, vandals, and rioters who are clearly breaking the law then it’s time for people to defend themselves, their families and their property meeting force with the appropriate level of force to stop the attack. — When law enforcement officers (the originator of that quote about shooting looters) use that rhetoric, I don’t see how they are suggesting they’ve been told to stand down? When the president, I’m not sure who would have the authority to give him a stand down order, uses that rhetoric it implies that it is okay for people to shoot and kill others to protect a window or a pair of shoes or a television they own at their store. Part of a police officers job is to listen and obey orders – so if they have received a stand down order, then actually doing their job (as you think they are not being allowed to do) is standing down and not gunning down people. Their job has never been to be police, judge, jury, and in some cases executioner.
— So she is not allowed to express her opinion? I can tell you that I know people that have said they intentionally avoid expressing an opinion or wearing certain items of clothing in public for legitimate, documented concerns for personal safety, — Am I not allowed to express my opinion, that hers is not considering a full range of possibilities of what a woman in a neighboring car might be thinking and feeling. She didn’t say that she had a conversation with this woman and that the woman told her these were the reasons the woman had a sticker supporting equity. Instead, she suggested that the ONLY reason the woman would do that – and I just pointed out there are also other viable reasons and that I disagree with her and my opinion is that her thought process is potentially dangerous.
— As for your “And finally”, I didn’t say if you disagree with me you are not a true American. I am saying if you are actively working, thru the use of force and violence, to usurp, undermine, or advocate for the overthrowing of our hard won Republic, I question your loyalty to this country. If that is a problem, deal with it. — But what you said was “we, the true American people”. Let me ask you this…. what defines for you the WE in that sentence as opposed to the THEY you are excluding as true Americans? From your rebuttal, your definition of true American has something to do with your own standards for loyalty to this country (which are also ill-defined). You suggest that people are working to “overthrow [sic] our hard won Republic” but in reality, they are just trying to live in it. There’s nothing more American than expressing dissatisfaction with your local, regional, and federal representatives and working hard as hell to have them replaced with people that share your personal values (or at least those that are most important to you). No one on my side of the street is suggesting we delay an election, after all.
Recently at a black lives matter when politically expedient protest in Washington D. C., two 2 protesters arrested after writing ‘Black Pre-Born Lives Matter’ in chalk on sidewalk. The other protesters who were vandalizing public and private property and tagging various landmarks were left alone by the police. Only the two pro-life participants were arrested.
