BLM is a protest group against institutional racism. If you don't like them, blame the cops who murdered unarmed black men and the criminal justice system that protects those cops.

With institutional racism so often candidly thrown out there as an excuse, it leads me to ponder why Asians aren't shooting up their neighborhoods and taking to the streets to then blame the system?
I mean, they've come over in enormous numbers. some succeed greatly, some are stuck in a dire situation trying to put food on the table in a China town near you. Some wash dishes for a living, others rise to the top of various fields. One thing they don't do is pull the victim card every time they see potential political gain after killing thousands of each other around this nation every year. It's also noticeable I see zero complaining about Trump or his immigration policies by the Asian community. Why?
I'd argue far more cultural accountability and far more of a premium put on home/family life and education.

To me personally? No. Why? Because I'm sure if white people were upset about something and were angry and pushed enough (and subsequently the actions of a few were blown out of proportion) into "riots" -- they wouldn't want to be called terrorists.
Everyone's the good guy, didn't you know? Everyone is on the "right side" of history and the issues. Hell, German soldiers in WWII thought Americans were evil, and we just shake our heads and think they were misguided. To them, we were the misguided ones until they lost the war.

Maybe because Asians don't share the same type of history or experiences?? and any given New American always do better at least the first and second generation be they Asians Africans or Caribbeans there is nothing unique in that.

You do realize Asians have been here since the start if the country don't you? Did you know they built the railroad system. Your history is skewed the reason asians do so well in amarice is work ethics. They value only two things jobs and education. You don't want to be in an Asian household and fail in school. They also do something anothrt group does they support each other. For example someone will come here from say India they make money. They take that money and open a business. Then they will bring over relatives to do the same and before you know it they own several companies.
The Mexicans for the most part have the same work ethic the difference becomes they send their money back to mexico to their family there. Black people in the US have never tried to help each other quite the contrary actually. They tend to look down on successful black people saying things like they lost their black identity and are uncle toms etc. I have to say my wife is black and she will be the first to tell you black guys tend to always look for the easy way and don't try to better their situation. Honest truth at this point you can't blame others if you are unwilling to do what you have to to make money. You can't just sit back and wait for someone to pay you it won't happen.
BLM needs to take the money they get and spend it loaning it to minorities to start businesses and hire others. This would meeb black teens wouldn't join gangs they would be working earning money and skills. A Kid with a job and school doesn't have time to play gang banger. Are oldest son just turned 16 and mom made him get a job just like her mom did to her and her brother. He's a doctor she's a lawyer and they were taught something ethics.
“When Donald opened his club in Palm Beach called Mar-a-Lago, he insisted on accepting Jews and blacks even though other clubs in Palm Beach to this day discriminate against blacks and Jews,” Kessler said. “The old guard in Palm Beach was outraged that Donald would accept blacks and Jews so that’s the real Donald Trump that I know.”

And i'll post it here as well..
According to this Sheriff ...
www.liveleak.com...
Sheriff Clarke identifies the disrupters that are targeting Donald Trump as
riot starters who show up for the express purpose of creating chaos. He says,
“This is a threat to ordered liberty in the United States of America. Look,
these presidential candidates and their supporters have every right to
participate in this process in our democratic state here in the United States
of America.”
“And for that to be thwarted by these bullies, these goons, is downright
wrong.” Clarke says, “Look, the Chicago police, the officers were
under-resourced last night. Shame on the Chicago Police administrators for not
putting their line officers in a position to be able to accomplish their
mission, which was to have this rally go on.”
He says, “This rally was cancelled in the name of public safety? Why don’t we
cancel these rebellions in the name of public safety? These people had their
civil rights violated, who showed up at this rally and wanted to participate,
as the Constitution allows, in our presidential election politics. Donald
Trump’s First Amendment rights were squashed last night because of the
cancellation of this rally.”
UPDATE: The North Carolina sheriff’s office will not charge Donald Trump and his campaign over “inciting riot” for last week’s violent rally in Fayetteville, a spokesperson said in a statement on Monday: “With respect to the potential of lodging charges of inciting a riot against Donald J. Trump, or the Trump Committee, we have reviewed the evidence accumulated, and consulted with the detectives involved.
The Sheriff’s Office legal counsel advised, and the Sheriff concurred, that the evidence does not meet the requisites of the law as established under the relevant North Carolina statute and case law to support a conviction of the crime of inciting a riot. Accordingly, we will not be seeking a warrant or indictment against Mr. Trump or his campaign for these offenses. While other aspects of our investigation are continuing, the investigation with regard to Mr. Trump and his campaign has been concluded, and no charges are anticipated” — Sean E. Swain, Office of the Sheriff, Cumberland County N.C.
