I think it's pretty obvious this is just a way to publicize BLM.
I think it is a BLM protest as well, but even that movement needs help. They've got valid points, but their message delivery is preventing more broad appeal and understanding of their points.
The BLM leadership needs to be adamantly against violence as a means of protest. They also need to rightfully point out that ALL Black Lives Matter, not just those Black Lives lost at hands of police. We can't have fathers abandoning their children, abandoning the mother(s) of their children and then those people talking about BLM. The lives of the children and mothers matter too. It also matters when a black person dies at the hands of another black person. If we are ever going to fully get the message across that BLM, then it needs to be obvious that BLM at all times - not just when it is a racial talking point.

I agree with all of that and am sure Reid would as well.

They need to let the locals of whatever community they go to handle their own communities. I live in the Baton Rouge area and I can tell you the police had very little problems with he locals that were protesting after the Alton Sterling shooting. The majority of people that they arrested and who were violent were out of state people coming in and leaching off of our problems to push their agenda. I'm all for protesting if you have a righteous call that is your right but let the people that know the community do it. Don't come leach off of my people and let us handle ourselves.Yes Baton Rouge people are my people no matter race color or religion. I relate more to other races from my area than other white people from other areas so I consider them all my people.

Do some research. They do. Faux will never tell you that. Your claim is a fallacy

I truly thoroughly enjoy watching football, and especially when I see multi millionaires on national television protesting because of oppression.
Yes, the humor in that is "family guy" worthy...
God Bless their little hearts...

BLM is stupid period..... It's creating racial divide and built on hate.
Otherwise they would be protesting peacefully the things you listed other than blacks being shot by police... Never mind that most of the blacks shot by cops are criminals or felons refusing or being defiant to authorities. It's not like cops are just randomly shooting minorities, far more whites are killed by police , it's a risk that criminals run by breaking the law, they run the risk of being in situations where they could be shot, it's the nature of the game. Cops for the most part are doing the right thing and shouldn't be crucified for doing there job, they have more of a right to go home to there families than criminals , of any color, it's the criminals who chose to live or exist outside the law and refused to comply or threatened police when caught. .... Also blocking traffic is not a protest that's a riot and should be seen as a crime, don't even get me started on the burning of buildings, cars, chants, nothing but a riot. I'm sick of the media sugar coating and calling it a protest, it sells for them but lies to the public and further creates a racial divide just like BLM
