Sorry I spoke my mind - I thought I had freedom of speech ....
This so called "BLM movement" is not a peaceful one. It has created
rioting, looting, destruction of "public & personal property", namely
destruction, damage and de-facing of historical monuments, history
of the United States, and the same around the world. They cannot
verbally justify why statues are being toppled of Christopher Columbus,
Francis Scott Key and many others. It seems this "movement" is trying
to erase some history of the United States. Portraits are being removed
from the Capital building, TV shows are being removed, product names
have to be changed, now they want some cities, towns, roadways, ships
and military bases to be re-named.
As a decorated and wounded Vietnam combat veteran, U.S. Marine Corps,
what really ticks me off to no end, are these thugs toppling and defacing
war monuments and in some cases, cemetery grave stones, burning and
de-facing the American flag. Alot of these thugs need what we call in the
Marine Corps, an "attitude adjustment". Some say that this "movement"
is a peaceful one. What outrages many Americans of all colors, is seeing
the so called "peaceful protesters" carrying signs that say "Kill The Police",
"The Police Are Your Enemy", "Arm Yourselves", and one sign did read,
"White Lives Matter Only After Black Lives Do". My wife and I saw signs
carried by a protesting woman and 3 kids under the age of 10 or 12 that
stated "White People Need To Go". NOT ONE SIGN WE SAW THAT SAID
"All Lives Matter".
Where is all this headed? There were/are demands that the "White House"
in Washington change its name. Whats coming next, change the name of
the United States of America to who knows what. The politicians in this
country need to grow a pair, and really start putting an end to alot of this
nonsense.
As far as I am concerned, there are only 2 reasons to get down on a knee
and bow our heads. To pray, and to thank all the veterans who fought, and
for those who died to protect our precious freedom of speech we enjoy, so
this "movement" can promote, in some cases, the propaganda to suit their
needs.
Just expressing my freedom of speech I fought for / God Bless America
