A silent majority? Black Americans reject violence, looting in neighborhoods after Floyd death

The rioters are ‘reflective of a small subset of black America that is jobless, lawless, wild, and capable of the brutality we saw,’ said Rob Smith, a black conservative activist and decorated Iraq War veteran, but ‘the silent majority will always stay on the side of law and order.’

Just The News:

Black Americans across the ideological spectrum are speaking in support of peaceful protest — but rejecting the violence, looting, and destruction of black neighborhoods after the gruesome death of George Floyd, an African-American man, at the hands of Minneapolis police. 

“Black America, like broader America, they’re sympathizing with the fact that the murder that triggered all of this was a horrible thing, and I think all reasonable people are appalled by it and protested,” said Shelby Steele, well-known author, documentary maker and senior fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution. “After that, things become more murky. There’s a certainly a segment of black America — Black Lives Matter and so forth — that want to sort of use this tragedy as a means to power, as a means to dominance in American life. Saying blacks are victims, and we have to take care of them in that sense to them, and appease them.” more

  1. If we are not to judge all blacks by the actions of a few, then..
    we should not judge all cops by the actions of a few.

    But if we’re going to take down the police force because of a few, then blacks need to be taken down, too.

    They don’t really even try to pretend. It’s really just a matter of they’ll do what they want, and they think they have the right to tell us we don’t have the right to do what we want. And it’s a mob.

  2. Crap like this always makes it worse for those it is supposed to help.
    Any ‘protected class’ will always see worse and worse treatment, as a result of the terrible laws intended to identify and isolate them. Oh, of course those laws are supposed to help them but they do the opposite, by training everyone to treat them differently.

  3. ” ‘the silent majority will always stay on the side of law and order.’”

    The “silent majority” will always go along with the winning side, they always do.

    Poll was taken that 40% of possible African Americans voter’s are behind Trump. 🤔 That is yuge.
