The hyper-protest lived up to its name as many people were injured as well as fires were set to cars and structures.

When a Protestant tries to explain Catholic or Orthodox teaching and completely fails by spewing misinformation or twisting what they actually believe.

Weren't you the one talking about BLM protests being "mostly peaceful" and bailing people out of jail? 6 billion in property damage because "ThEy HaVe InSuRaNcE!"
Hym "I mean, they look like mostly peace protest to me! What's the difference? Could it be... Who's being protested? No... It couldn't be... Is it because the people being protested are the Jews!? Nonono, wait... The mostly peaceful protests guy... Who defended the BLM protests... Is condemning the OBJECTIVELY AND RELATIVELY LESS VIOLENT CAMPUS PROTESTS!? How the actual fuck is this happening right now? Are we in the twilight zone- Oh wait! It's Hell... HA! I forgot where I was for a second! It's the memory shit that gets you! DAMN! That is WILD though. Right or wrong, the BLM protests were over superfluous police violence... And these ones are over genocide... And NOW... He's condemning the latter... Even though if you had to choose one between the 2... I mean, you see the point I'm trying to make, right? And I'll take a second to take a point for myself. I'm the first one to make this connection. I'm a genius. Good job me. People are getting paid to do this guys... And I beat them to the punch every time! Best pundit of all time! Better than everyone!"

Here's why they are dumb...
Hym "Right but the problem with your uncivil protests is that the government doesn't give a shit if Wal-Mart's windows get busted because 'ThEy HaVe InSuRaNcE!' The people you collectively have a problem with aren't the ones paying the price for your discontent because you aren't even GOING TO WHERE THEY ARE. And now that you've framed protesting AT THE ACTUAL PLACE WHERE THE PEOPLE YOU ARE PROTESTING ARE as an 'Insurrection' and 'violence bad' the people responsible for the collective discontent are never even affected by the thing you're doing to other people who are not them. It's like a peasant revolt where the peasants burn down everything EXCEPT FOR THE KING'S CASTLE and then just go home. It doesn't work. What are you going to do? Replace the guy who says he believes the things you believe with another guy who claims to believe what you believe? 2 or 4 years from now? That's already been happening. 'If OnLy It WaSn'T fOr ThE oThEr GuY!' you'll perpetually cry but YOU'RE already were you are. You're an object in motion. So, it doesn't really matter is it doesn't work. But you know what does work (and I'm not advocating for this) 100% of the time? The threat of hammer clowns. In theory. They are the only thing keeping us safe. Hammer clowns and the threat of hammer clowns. Just look at Afghanistan. Their hammer clowns won and now they need new hammer clowns or be ruled by taliban indefinitely. If only they were amenable to reason.... Hmm... Tragic... Oh well..."

Statue protests never had anything to do with George Floyd's death. The one thing thing Confederate statues to George Floyd's death is strings of misinformation about what the Confederacy was and why there was a Civil War in America. America is not the only country that has ever had a civil war, and the reason is usually who gets what, not some idealistic and lofty cause like abolition or human rights (as good as it sounds).
Statue protests have as much to do with George Floyd's death as penguins have to do with the North pole.

Protesting doesn't really do anything, it's always going to end up being someone other than the protestors in charge at the end of the day, and that person is always going to try and calm them. What's the point? It's a waste of everyone's time and nothing changes.
The people in charge along with everybody who is not in charge and also not part of the protests laugh at protestors. At least everybody not protesting is getting something accomplished that day, or those days (and nights).
