The BLM movement was founded by Trained Marxists and we should know and fully understand by now what their ultimate goal is.

It has nothing at all to do with Black Lives any where, it is to destroy the fabric of our American Society, to usher in Socialism.
Comparing your observations and what manifests in Canada, I see anarchist tendencies, but the end game agenda is not clear.

They've managed to dig up historical evidence that suggests that Lincoln was disingenuous, or actually treacherous, in his plans for blacks during and after emancipation, and favored the removal of blacks from the country, ostensibly for the good of the blacks, and the country. Reason enough in their minds to remove Lincoln as a benevolent icon.
Awh and all this time, I thought he was really a vampire hunter.

Anarchist:
1. a person who advocates or believes in anarchy or anarchism.
2. a person who seeks to overturn by violence all constituted forms and institutions of society and government, with no purpose of establishing any other system of order in the place of that destroyed.
3. a person who promotes disorder or excites revolt against any established rule, law, or custom.
4. a person who advocates the abolition of government and a social system based on voluntary cooperation
5. a person who causes disorder or upheaval

Marxist:
1. a follower of Marxism

2. (of an economic or political theory) analogous to or derived from the doctrines of Karl Marx
3. of or relating to Marx, Marxism, or Marxists and their theories

I wonder what their goal is.....hummmmm?

I was reflecting on this in another thread, it might be Islam, and not marxism.

This is only going to provoke some other group to tear down Monuments to Malcolm X (for his criminal past) and Muhammad Ali (draft dodger). I thought George Washington, the Father of this country was too much of an insult, but Abraham Lincoln as well? They are considered two of the three greatest presidents in American history. I can definitely see this provoking others to tear down monuments to Obama. I do not see these provocative acts as leading to peace. No one considers Washington or Lincoln as symbols of oppression. Washington is known for his David versus Goliath victory against the superpower of the day and Lincoln for his Gettysburg address and holding the country together during the most trying time. This seems petty and mean spirited to me.

The "protestors" are clearly trying to provoke civil disorder on a massive scale. Best not to retaliate in kind.

Yes, I agree. George Washington, US Grant and Lincoln, that is not about BLM, but an attempt to provoke civil disorder.

They are like those large organized groups of shoplifters that enter a store, cause massive confusion, and rob the place blind.

And nobody took the bat from him? Smh.

I'm guessing the patrons of that sidewalk café were mostly the pacifist type, not the kind to take a baseball bat from an angry black man. However, that he and his group of thugs chose to confront them actually shows cowardice on their part. Bullies don't usually pick on someone their own size.

And how silly is it to demand that a group sitting in a café take down a statue...or else.

This linked article relates to Wunk Sheek, an indigenous people organization, wanting to remove a Lincoln statue.
The Black Lives Matter protests started toppling statues of Confederate leaders, then it spread to statues of founding fathers who kept slaves. A statue of Washington was spray painted, “Black lives matter destroy racists.” The Native Americans rights people wanted to do damage too. There are Whites among them, but BLM is predominately Black.

When someone gets fired for saying, “All lives matter,” then Black racism is on the march.

Ironically the clock is ticking for a race war. Black lives have improved so dramatically in the last 50 years that if the radicals don't act soon they will have missed their chance.

I think that's what my dream was pointing to. The lack of safety was clear and racially driven. I'm stuffing the coffers. You need liquidity for times like this.

I can sympathize with the oppressed. There is favoritism in America. There are segregationists of various races and ethnicities. Jesus mainly favored his people the Jews. He healed the daughter of a Syrophonecian Greek woman (Mark 7:26). After the Holy Spirit was poured out on believers during the day of Pentecost, Peter was sent to a centurion of the Italian regiment at the port city of Caesarea. Peter preached to the Gentile household of Cornelius the centurion and stayed there two days.

Paul was going to Damascus with bad intentions. He was interrupted by Jesus and was made to repent. Paul spoke Aramaic and Greek. He was raised in a Gentile area. Paul went to Macedonia and Corinth. He shared his knowledge with both Jews and Gentiles.

People should love one another and not assume different races will treat them like the enemy. Christ commanded people to be good servants.
