3. ...and quietly...and out of the way...maybe over there...and don't make me late for work...

...because if you block the street I'm trying to go down, your entire cause is bullshit.

My inconvenience > Your oppression.

My Convenience Matters.

4. I'm white. I never said that.

I have said everyone should protest peacefully. I suppose that includes black people.

5. been there, done that

for generations, still garners very poor result. That is why BLM is so hated by the "protest peacefully" crowd. BLM is vocal and aware of the purpose of advice from the "protest peacefully" crowd. Be patient, don't rock our boat and one day you shall receive our gift of equality.

7. Protest all you want; just not where anyone can hear it or see it

Jeez, is that so hard for "you people" to understand? I gotta go now; Wal-Mart's having a huge sale on flimsy lawn chairs.

"If we whites don't get our way, we're gonna git our guns!"

11. I tried that once - protesting peacefully.

Once. No rhetoric, just "give peace a chance" and then I got angry.

Ask me about my favorite Olympic photo............ yeah, I'm white and I still have a poster (framed) on my walls.
