LEIPZIG, NEW ORLEANS, MINNEAPOLIS AND THROWING A ROCK

 This js my conclusion of the possibilities of bloodshed during protests.  I noted it took the Chinese authorities a month before they decided to crack down on Tiananmen, and they brought in troops from another province to do so.  I noted at a Black college in New Orleans, when a line of armed police was met by a line of Black students, that if a student had thrown a rock and hit a cop, blood, shooting first on campus, and possibly beyond might have occurred.

     Now I stress my support of ICE, the group trying to enforce the law in rounding up invaders who now reside in the US.  I would argue that the young man killed by ICE had provoked them, the equivalent of throwing a rock.  He was there to obstruct them from doing their duty in rounding up illegal aliens.  He had used violence against ICE and their vehicle, and they retaliated with force killing him.  HE WAS NOT A PEACEFUL PROTESTOR.  He was there to cause trouble, trained in tactics to provoke.  When you see the savagery of the mobs of Minneapolis, not just their vocal taunts, but throwing things aimed at the lawmen.  This is NOT peaceful protest.  The laws on the books for years should be enforced.  Billionaires like George Soros fund "non-governmental" organizations, which, in effect, train people to throw rocks, cause trouble, destroy law and order, loot stores, and if not revolution, promote chaos.  I also think the government should crack down on NGOs whose purpose is to create chaos in out country.

MEDIA TREAT WHITE ON BLACK CRIME DIFFERENT FROM BLACK ON WHITE

To All,  

 With all the protests, rioting, looting, and burning of stores throughout the US because a police officer knelt on the neck of the Black man, George Floyd, kneeling for over 8 minutes and killing the suspect, yet something about Minneapolis and police killings is never mentioned.  In all the numerous stories about the incident, and the telling video that accompanied the stories, there is no mention of the July 2017 incident in Minneapolis in which a Black police officer shot and killed an unarmed white woman (who had earlier called the police worried about a possible rape in her back yard).  The story probably would never have been allowed to reach beyond Minneapolis (the national media have no desire to hype Black on white killings) except for the fact that Justine Diamond was not an American but an Australian, and the Australian government protested what had happened to her.  There were no street protests, no riots, no looting, no burning of stores.  The Black policeman was charged, found guilty, and now serves a 12 year sentence.  In addition, her family was paid $20 million by the city, of which the family donated $2 million to fighting gun violence.  While Floyd is now a name on the international scene, the media have buried the information about the Diamond case with her.

   There is a great contrast in the way the media treat white on Black crime, and Black on white crime.
