“Pigs in a blanket, fry ’em like bacon.”
Eight words no American – especially cops – should ever forget.
Black Lives Matter is no friend of law enforcement, nor to the country as a whole. They want peace through violence, as seen on a number of occassions.
Now, BLM Los Angeles plans ‘black Xmas’ to resist ‘white capitalism.’
Check it…
From BizPac Review:
A Black Lives Matter chapter is launching a “Black Xmas” initiate to urge people to buy from black-owned businesses during the holidays to “resist white capitalism.”
Black Lives Matter Los Angeles called on people to refuse to buy from white-owned businesses and take that money to invest in the black community from Nov. 25 to Jan. 1. 2018. The boycott serves as an attempt to resist President Donald Trump and his ties to white capitalism, the group added.

Donald Trump embodies White capitalism. If you are anti-Trump, you should hold back your resources from him and the like.
BUILD NEW TRADITIONS: Donate to Black-led community-based organizations in the name of your loved ones as holiday gifts.
How totally not racist of them! Sheesh.
More from Newsweek:
“Rather than lining the pockets of Trump and other White-supremacist capitalists, donate to Black-led organizations that are building new, liberatory structures in our communities,” wrote Abdullah in a 2016 op-ed for the Los Angeles Sentinel.
The organization’s website also names Trump as a figurehead for the problem, claiming that he “embodies White capitalism.” Plans for black Christmas go beyond simply purchasing items at retail stores owned by minorities: There is a call to forgo traditional shopping altogether. The site offers lists of nonprofits and organizations it deems worthy of donations and asks that shoppers consider making a donation on someone’s behalf rather than buying a gift.
Previous black Christmas demonstrations have drawn attention, such as when protesters temporarily blocked roads to airports in San Francisco and Minneapolis in 2015. In Los Angeles that year, nine were arrested for blocking traffic on a major highway. Last year, 65 people gathered to sing “protest carols” with anti-Trump lyrics at the Trump National Golf Club in Rancho Palos Verdes in Los Angeles.
From WBTV:
The Russian troll farm suspected of trying to disrupt U.S. elections last year apparently infiltrated Charlotte during racial protests last year, BuzzFeed News reports.
The online news site says the St. Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency recruited U.S. activists to help stage protests in order to help divide the nation ahead of the 2016 elections.
Conrad James of the Raleigh nonprofit Living Ultra-Violet was among four activists who told BuzzFeed they never suspected they were being recruited by the Russians.
James told the news site he was contacted by BlackMattersUS, which the Russian news outlet RBC linked to the Russian troll farm. James said BlackMattersUS asked him to speak at a rally following the September 2016 police shooting of Keith Lamont Scott, which sparked two days of protests.
“I thought it was a knockoff of Black Lives Matter,” James told BuzzFeed, but its website appeared legitimate.
