Make some sort of riff on this:

bcc @ExGingi

I feel humbled. Having offered a solution to the cause of the current civil unrest in the US.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

"Americans by a 2-to-1 margin are more troubled by the actions of police in the killing of George Floyd than by violence at some protests"

Wish the poll numbers would be the same on DDF...

I would only highlight Jewishness at a protest where I could be confident that no one would turn against me for being Jewish. If I had any doubts, I would go with a generic sign that doesn't draw attention to my Jewishness.
Injustice against minorities should cover it all.

Why would you participate in a protest that if the ppl knew you were jewish it would turned against you?
You can't really be on the same page then, could you?

I believe it is correct to call looters and rioters (not peaceful protesters) "animals" but not murdering police officers. Here's why:

All human beings have animalistic tendencies. Part of our human-ness is the ability to control these drives. This includes the drive to fulfill physical pleasures without regard to the effect on others, and the destructive drive when angry. These are things that would be expected of a bull. But humans should be above that. When they grossly fail in that, they can justifiably be referred to as "animals".

However, when an individual murders someone who is posing no threat to them, even animals would be embarrassed to be associated with him. The only proper term for someone like that is; MONSTER.
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

You can show subtly that you, a Jew, cares about racism, but if you flaunt your Jewishness, there may be some (only some) who may use the chaos to take out their anger on you.

Not saying it's probable. I just mentioned it as a cautionary measure.

Nice!
The whole buffalo Pd emergency response team resigned in support of the 2 cops fired.

This is also an argument against what I had been writing about the shortcomings of police unions.

What in the world is Jerry Nadler thinking standing there? If he cannot take a knee for health reasons, he should stand off to the side! Now it looks like all the members are bowing down to him. (Bowing to the Jew...)
