blamed President Obama and the Black Lives Matter movement, than his message is addressed to you.

Here's an idea for you. KMOD Jul 2016 #8

Because this is a discussion board. For discussion. If you don't like his message... Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #9

Tariq is right. What is the problem? kwassa Jul 2016 #13

An eye for an eye till the whole world is blind - right? nt jonno99 Jul 2016 #22

Your comment has nothing to do with what I said. kwassa Jul 2016 #48

I imagine it's a very uncomfortable thought for you, but, he's right Spider Jerusalem Jul 2016 #14

The only uncomfortable thing is that the immediate reaction of this guy... Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #15

Good god, that's a stunningly ignorant thing to say Spider Jerusalem Jul 2016 #16

What is the tie in to White Supremacy less than an hour after the news broke that 3 cops were dead? Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #18

you're not very observant, are you Spider Jerusalem Jul 2016 #19

Just wanted to see you type out an excuse for one group of people to murder another. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #20

Not an excuse Spider Jerusalem Jul 2016 #21

Then I guess I'm an idiot. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #23

I guess you are, yes Spider Jerusalem Jul 2016 #24

I'm so glad you said that ... instead of me. Thanks. You undoubtedly saved me from a hide. 1StrongBlackMan Jul 2016 #32

So you don't actually care Bradical79 Jul 2016 #25

No, the point was, blaming 'white supremacy' for murdering police officers is foolish. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #27

You were baiting people because you don't really care Bradical79 Jul 2016 #31

+1. Yes. Nt seabeyond Jul 2016 #35

I don't have a problem with his connecting white supremacy (not white people in general) Lisa0825 Jul 2016 #26

The bigotry, as evidenced, cuts both ways. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #28

I don't see it that way. Lisa0825 Jul 2016 #30

Why do you find discussion of white supremecy offensive Bradical79 Jul 2016 #34

Sure, for public comments from a self proclaimed member/leader (?) of the movement. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #40

False dichotomy, 99.9% of white people in America are NOT white supremacist uponit7771 Jul 2016 #44

99.9%??? philosslayer Jul 2016 #60

I agree with you. Chemisse Jul 2016 #56

I thought Tariq didn't like BLM. romanic Jul 2016 #29

Your concern is noted. Rex Jul 2016 #33

As is your cliched response. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #39

How does one guy become a "group"? arcane1 Jul 2016 #37

It's not just some guy, it's Tariq Nasheed...do some research if you don't now who he is. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #41

Dodging the question, just as I suspected. arcane1 Jul 2016 #42

That game doesn't work here. If a person who has spoken for the group, makes crazy ass public Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #47

That's why all Americans agree with Donald Trump's tweets arcane1 Jul 2016 #63

I just googled. He's got a twitter account. And I still don't know who the **** he is. tenderfoot Jul 2016 #62

He's a self proclaimed leader of the movement, not just some joe schmoe on the street. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #50

Why does this have to do with the actuality of Baton Rouge? Stinky The Clown Jul 2016 #51

I don't think I understand your question? Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #52

But you've been posting in a number threads on DU (which is spam, BTW) Stinky The Clown Jul 2016 #53

LMFAO...use the search function. Show me where I 'spammed' anything. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #54

Also, do you even have a clue what you're talking about? Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #55

What exactly is wrong with this tweet? kwassa Jul 2016 #57

Because the cops were still lying in the streets when he decided to post this. Joe the Revelator Jul 2016 #58

So? Why does it make the tweet wrong? And how is Tariq a BLM leader? kwassa Jul 2016 #59

The baiting itself is well done, however I would suggest a more graceful cast of the pole LanternWaste Jul 2016 #64

Lol! zappaman Jul 2016 #66

Isn't it racist to blame Obama and the BLM for what happened in Baton Rouge? pnwmom Jul 2016 #65
