In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton INTERUPTED By Black Lives Matter Activists During Atlanta Rally [View all]Number23
(24,544 posts)The same folks acting as though the nine black folks on their Twitter feeds represent the totality of black thought are now trying to make this sound as though something horrible terrible happened here.
Now this is just one article, but nothing about this seems even remotely untoward. Nobody was hurt, Hillary didn't leave the stage, this was a crowd of HUNDREDS of genuine black folks (not 12 or 20 accompanied by hilarious and tone deaf crowing about how "memes have been destroyed" and BLM was able to speak their minds for what looks like several minutes before being escorted out by security. I would have loved for them to have been allowed to stay though.
There were no screams at them, no cries for them to be jailed or tasered. And it sounds as though their issues were addressed in the speech.
So all of these concern attempts in this thread, don't come across as dishonest or opportunistic at all. Not one bit.
