Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

I mean, you brought me something meant to fearmonger and make a political point. Should I trust you'll not bring me more of that?

Here's the thing, I'm not going to pretend BLM is something I agree with on more than maybe a subject or two. I honestly think it's an organization too defuse and disorganized to have much in the way of guiding principles. I think they mostly exist as a manifestation of some feelings that makes noise and rattles cages (and I'm doubtful it translates to actual political power as say the noisy and cage rattling Tea Partiers of yesteryear).

I looked over the demands, well the copy of them since the original site with the coalition BLM apparently joined doesn't exist anymore. Some grandstanding to be sure. Most won't amount to a hill of beans. Shoot, even if their most limited aims come to pass, some kind of start on unbundling the police, I'd be more than surprised.

Something out of context? The Acton piece is barely even about BLM... It's about M4BL, and conflates the two of them as being identical.

So they look at the BLM organization (a loose structure as it is), see that someone or something in the BLM organization has a tie to the M4BL organization, and then looks for every possible way to construe all the worst things that the M4BL organization is looking for as the epitome of what BLM is all about.

They take a group, state that it is part of and fully endorses another group, and then uses that other group to tar the first group with everything the second--more extreme--group wants.

And that doesn't seem deceptive to you?

I find you humorous at times. 

the question was being asked by several posters here, several times:  what do they want?  I simply shared BLM’s written words, and spoken words to answer that very simple question.  They have documented exactly what they want.  Exactly. 

That you call that fear mongering to make a political point, is a big swing and a miss, but in your defense that is the way of social media today when the facts upset a person’s narrative. 

I am not even judging their goals. That is not for me to say, although to show my open mindedness, I will admit that I actually think several of their ideas make sense to me.

Now here is where I see your opinion and respectfully disagree:  the things you say won’t amount to a hill of beans, in some case, enjoy broad support by a number of powerful voices within our elected officials.

I signed up for one of those food delivery services, mostly to try and get out of my cooking rut.  I was excited the first package included salmon, then when they shipped they said they were out of salmon

I've got more salmon than I know what to do with. I don't ship, but you can feel free to drive to Palatine and do a pickup.

In 3 weeks it will be a drive to Kenosha, as I'm out of here by July 31.

See you soon.
