who is this loud mouthed clown? she may be involved with BLM but she does not speak for them as an organization. here is what real people involved with BLM have said about looting and violence at protests-
Black Lives Matter: on the topic of protesting and looting
Uploaded: Jun 3, 2020
As of recently, every single one of the 50 states has participated in some form of protest. The Black Lives Matter movement has swept across the country following the death of George Floyd, even inciting peaceful protests in foreign countries such as the UK, the Netherlands, and Japan, to name a few. The message is clear: end police brutality against African Americans by making real reforms, or protests will continue.
For background, protests began in the wake of George Floyd’s death, where former police officer Derek Chauvin kneeled on Floyd's neck for close to nine minutes, causing his death. Floyd's family conducted an independent autopsy, and the cause of death was asphyxiation due to sustained pressure. The United States Constitution’s Sixth Amendment guarantees every citizen the right to a fair trial, but this right, and the right to live, was stripped from Floyd as a cause of our faulty law enforcement system.
Too little officers are held accountable: approximately four in 400 police officers are charged for killing; of these four, only one is ever convicted. I acknowledge that oftentimes, these killings are not against the law, and sometimes police officers must make split-second decisions to protect the safety of themselves and other civilians. However, too many stories have made the news of Black Americans being killed while posing no threat to police officers, and most of the time the officers in questions are not charged with any crimes. The law states that a person must pose a reasonable threat to others to justify using deadly force. With the help of videos and surveillance, we see that too often officers use such force without reasonable threat posed. This causes repetitive tragedies that stem from our failure to hold officers accountable.
These protests have gathered thousands of people every day. In some cases, police officers have kneeled with protestors; in many others, they have retaliated with tear gas, rubber bullets, and even police vehicles. Most protests have opted for a peaceful route. The small minority has turned violent: riots in Minnesota have caused fires and destruction. There have also been many recent occurrences of looting, or taking of goods by force and causing destruction to stores and public buildings. For those living in Palo Alto or near it, such occurrences have hit close to home; curfews have been set to keep people safe, and potential looters have been apprehended.
It is important to note that those who participate in looting during the night rarely overlap with those who march peacefully as protestors during the day. Reporters on scene have made this clear. Looting cannot be tolerated; it is simply bad people riding on this wave of protests who seek to steal, damage, and wreck property with an excuse.
Oftentimes, this can ruin the life’s work of small businesses, and the cost of losing people’s entire means of making money is unimaginable, leaving business owners hopeless and impoverished. Large chain stores like Target, Starbucks and Apple are able to use their large funds to buy policies that insure all losses. However, for small businesses, not all merchandise and property is insured. Business owners who have to pay out-of-pocket for these damages may never recover. In one night, they go from having a stable income to not even knowing how to patch their lives back together.
We cannot confuse these people with those who are trying to peacefully enact change and raise awareness. The actions of looters have corrupted the message of those who are demonstrating without violence, and we must recognize that this should not serve as an excuse to stop listening to the pleas of the vast majority.
Distinguishing these two groups is essential to uncovering the truth: the Black Lives Matter movement is not about inciting violence. It is about justice and equality, and putting an end to police brutality that systemically fails to be held accountable, as well as countless other injustices that black people face on a day-to-day basis.

The Chicago Black Lives Matter organizer Ariel Atkins who justified looting as “reparation” has doubled down — insisting this week that even calling someone a criminal is “based on racism.”
You moron Ariel Atkins is a Chicago BLM organizer.
You said: BLM has never condoned looting or violence, lying pig. why are you such a drooling piece of shit liar?
Want to lie to me some more?

6 Reasons 'All Lives Matter' Doesn't Work—in Terms Simple Enough for a Child (or a special ed "teacher")
Looking for a way to explain the difference between "Black Lives Matter" and "All Lives Matter"? Try one of these six metaphors.
“The reason ‘Black Lives Matter’ went from hashtag to a movement illustrates exactly why saying it out loud was necessary in the first place,” notes Ginna Green, a political strategist, writer, and mom of four from Stamford, Connecticut. “Anti-black racism is hardwired into America's DNA, and it touches Black lives every single day—from cop killings to predatory lending to poorly-funded schools. To say ‘Black lives matter’ acknowledges that in many ways we never did—not to suggest that anyone else matters any less.”
Explanations of the statement and the importance of not saying “all lives matter” have been popping up all over social media. Here, six examples that nail it.
1. “We Never Said Only Black Lives Matter”
In a moving viral photo, a 6-year-old girl named Armani from Paris, Tennessee holds a poster that reads, “We said ‘Black lives matter.’ We never said ‘only Black lives matter.’ We know ‘all lives matter.’ We just need your help with #BlackLivesMatter for Black lives are in danger!”
Her mother, Shalyndrea Quanise, tells Parents.com, “The message itself came from another post on Facebook I had seen, and I just thought it was a strong message that needed to be seen. I explained to Armani what was going on, what we were going to do, and what the sign meant. After explaining it all to her, she was all in with smiles!”
Quanise believes it’s important for children to be informed and involved in current events. “They are the future,” she says. “Twenty years from now, Armani will be a woman, and I pray to God she doesn’t have to do what we are doing now!”
