And, yes I do.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOK, so there is a amount of time for the violence to be committed before it becomes the level of "terrorism".
What is that time? A year? Ten? Twenty? Fifty?
Unintended, spillage? Unintended by whom? That person who dropped a concrete block on someone's head surely seemed intentional.
When does activism become terrorism? Where do YOU, the great decider, draw the line?
We all live in different realities. If you watched CNN and then Fox you got two radically different views on how Obama did yesterday in Dallas. We attach to the narratives we want to attach ourselves to.
Have you read the bios of some of the primary BLM figures? All could be doing something very different and being very successful with their time. Those trying to suggest that these persons are white haters with white hate as their primary motivation are simply clueless, and we know what narrative you are watching.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostUnfortunately your assertion is dead wrong. We have IT guys where I work making $100K+ that fit that description. Maybe in your Leave it to Beaver 1950's fantasy world that is the case but not in the world the millennials will control in another 20 years. Grow up and accept that the world doesn't fit your neat little martinis and lucky strikes scenario.
#2 Your exception does not prove the rule. The kid with no education, whether black or white, is unlikely to find more than a minimum wage job, if they can even able to find that, ESPECIALLY when decked out in tattoos, piercings, or dressed like a gang member. Haven't you just read about the millenials fired because they didn't want to comply with the company dress code?
http://reason.com/blog/2016/06/30/in...de-petition-is
I have 3 personal examples. First, my daughter was called before HR for wearing capris to work which she didn't realize was against company dress code. Second, a teller where I bank was sent home for wearing a nose ring. She never returned.I guess the nose ring was more important than the $11/hour and experience she'd gain working the teller line. Third, a friend of my daughter's who works at a local country club was told to ditch her nose ring if she wanted the job.
That's life. It's all about the choices you make. If you can find a better job and keep your body art and clothing choices, by all means have at it. Otherwise you've got to play the game.

BLM grew out of a real problem. How many unnecessary deaths do we have to see for you to get that? And the deaths are just the tip of the iceberg. They are trying to educate about how blacks, even very educated blacks with their own sons and daughters, live life every day in a world that is still very racist. The deniers of racism and blindness to their experience on a daily basis can be "related to" the climate change deniers.

McKesson was President of the student body at Bowdoin. Does that fit with your narrative? Got a similar neo-nazi leader to offer?

Yes, grew out of a real problem. I'd go as far as to say it's a cause I support overall.
That doesn't mean it doesn't meet the definition of terrorism.

What's my narrative? That using coercion and intimidation through violence for a political cause relates to terrorism, in accordance to the definition?

Yes, I've read their bios. Impressive. How does that matter?
