          BLM did not just loot Philly you fucking liar. I know because I live around there and I’ve been reading about the story you’re referring to all day. Fuck off with that bullshit, the cops themselves say that the looting was by opportunists that were unconnected to the peaceful protests that were going on the same night.

        And you are putting words in my mouth.

        I never said it was an inconvenience.

        The UAW protesters should be protecting themselves. They are already putting themselves on the line with the protest. They shouldn’t put themselves in more danger just so they can be taken out of the fight.

        Try to think rationally, educate yourself on the real world and how it works.

          You are taking out of both sides of your mouth. “They didn’t have been run over but they had it coming!”

              Explain yourself differently then?

              And before you say “JuSt UndErsTand bEtteR” “it’s nOt my fAuLt they aRe dUmB” consider who’s the one making a case here and who’s responsibility it is to speak your own points clearly as possible.

              I’m fucking awful at wording how I feel sometimes about a viewpoint I have, but just giving up on conveying what you’re trying to get at…. I mean what’s even the point in speaking your mind in the first place then you know? Obviously the way you worded it wasn’t clear enough to convey what you mean, just try again.

                BOTH ARE WRONG, BOTH ARE TO BLAME.

                Don’t stand in front of oncoming cars if you don’t want to get hit. Don’t be a dick and run people over.

                Is that simple enough for you?

                Or is reading comprehension not your strong point?

                Edit: I apologize for that last line but It’s quite frustrating trying to express a valid and correct point accurately and concisely while consistently being shit on and insulted. Even after going back and reading the several different comments I made, it is pretty clear what I have been saying. Both parties are at fault. I don’t see how it could be misinterpreted to me just straight up blaming the protestors.

                  while consistently being shit on and insulted.

                  I suppose it makes sense that you’re less likely to listen to people if you feel like you are being shit on and insulted.

                  Is that simple enough for you?

                  Or is reading comprehension not your strong point?

                  Maybe if you weren’t shitting on and insulting people they wouldn’t come at you with a similar attitude.

                  Learn how to control your outbursts and your life will be infinitely easier my friend. I’m right there with you, look at my post history too.

                  You’ll catch more flies with honey than vinegar. There’s all kinds of gadfly’s swarming about on this platform, keep in mind you might appear like one to others. Everyone should be ignoring them or calmly and concisely squashing them anyway. Don’t wanna get squirshed _

                  Be well

      Ill join you on the downvote boat. Protest all you want, but they were blocking a exit, not an entrance. They were not blocking people from working, they were blocking them from going home. Protests should not impede traffic.
