What in the world is going on down south?

White people played no part, so they get a pass (for now).

That’s right. Slavery on the African continent (where the vast majority of it happened) is to be ignored.

coming closer to home, there are apparently protests etc planned for this weekend and Lord Armstrongs statue has been identified as a target because to quote " he;'s racist as he sold guns ( he didn't personally but apparently his company did) to the union and confederacy during the American civil war,

what a load of crock - getting mightily p"ssed off by the actions of those apparently against racism , but probably just people who have their own agenda which has nothing to do with racism. Ive never been racist myself but christ i'm turning against those who are supposedly fighting for the cause - i think they will alienate people and actually cause more incidents of racism in this country

They are even having ago about Grey's Monument. Even though he was the PM who abolished slavery they are not happy he repatriated British slave owners.

Tired of hearing all this sh!t in the media, FFS that all happened hundreds of years ago, this is now, time for the statue hating snowflakes to move on, there are more pressing problems to deal with.

Apparently Floyd and the cop Chauvin knew each other from previous employment and didn't get along.

That is important because it suggests that the reason for the death was personal and not race driven (kind of defeats the purpose of all the demos/riots).
It also raises the question of how someone like that can be allowed to enter a police force.

This one tells a story though especially when he mentions the BLM agenda published on their funding page. Not anti racism at all just a bunch of anarchists
