Peaceful protest is part of the American culture. Unfortunately in recent years, protesters have forgotten the peaceful part.\u00a0 We had problems in the sixties and the seventies when the Capitol Building was bombed by Barack Obama’s friend Bill Ayers and various other buildings were bombed. We had problems in 2020 when cities were burned to the ground. But overall, we have generally managed to keep our protests peaceful. However, we might want to look at what our more violent protests have taught our children.<\/p>\n
On Friday, The Federalist<\/a> posted an article about Quintez Brown, a 21-year-old Black Lives Matter activist.<\/p>\n The article reports:<\/p>\n Quintez Brown, a 21-year-old Black Lives Matter activist, allegedly marched into the office of Louisville, Ky., mayoral candidate Craig Greenberg on Valentine\u2019s Day and opened fire, sending a bullet through Greenberg\u2019s clothing before fleeing the scene. Despite the story\u2019s shock value, corporate media can\u2019t be bothered to do much reporting on the story \u2014 and we all know exactly why.<\/strong><\/p>\n Despite Brown\u2019s history as a BLM activist and his flirtation with black nationalism on social media, most media outlets have shrugged off his motive for the shooting with a \u201cwho knows?\u201d or even tried to pin it on Republicans. Brown was also a vocal gun-control advocate and was interviewed<\/a> by Joy Reid on MSNBC at an anti-gun march in 2018.<\/strong><\/p>\n The article continues:<\/p>\n The Las Vegas Sun completely whitewashed Brown\u2019s far-left associations, asininely writing<\/a> that \u201cWhile there\u2019s been no indication yet that the activist had ties to any right-wing organizations, the shooting comes amid a rise in threats against politicians fueled by increasingly violent rhetoric coming from extremist Republicans.\u201d After backlash, the Sun tweaked<\/a> the sentence to admit, \u201c[I]t\u2019s been reported that the activist was involved in the Black Lives Matter and gun-safety movements\u201d \u2014 but still followed the line with the original sentence in its entirety rather than issuing a correction.<\/strong><\/p>\n ABC simply called Brown a \u201csocial justice activist,\u201d and after the local BLM chapter helped bail him out, David Muir vaguely referred to the group as a \u201ccommunity organization.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n My first question is, “What is an anti-gun advocate doing with a gun?” Again, please notice that this murder was attempted to be used by the media to smear people who hold conservative beliefs.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Peaceful protest is part of the American culture.
