Sorry bruv, you can't stop these protests. If that's the case only way to get the government's attention after several years of murder,then it's cool by me.
If you diadisag with me,it's not my problem.


No one is talking about stopping the protests, they have the right to protest if they feel aggrieved. But looting can't be condoned in the name of protests, the looting part is what I have a problem with. The owners of those looted stores are fellow citizens like them, the stores aren't owned by the cops that killed the deceased George Floyd.


And talking about getting the goverment's attention, their plans seems to be working. You might want to check out Trump's tweet about the looting that was censored by Twitter.

Hello,you can fell cool and all whatnots about being right,but am not cool with murder....and whatever it takes to get Justice is ok.


So condemning looting is now tantamount to being cool with murder?

When looting happened in Lagos as a reprisal attack against South African investments in Nigeria,I was thoroughly against it....and it was done after several attacks on Nigerians in SA. After wards, even the SA realised their mistake.
But,this murder has been ongoing for years and you expect every to be cool with Government's intended ignorance?.... Anything to attract justice after long-term suffering is ok.

So there's no other way to protest without looting innocent people's businesses and means of livelihood?

These are citizens that cherish themselves to the fullest.
They cherish every lives.

But in our darling country, some dumb heads will first check the name of the person that died to confirm if he is from their region before they can know if to protest the police brutality or not.
Religion and ethnic bigots have taken over our land!

But see blacks and white coming together to fight for a just cause, that even THE PRESIDENT OF AMERICA has no choice but to tell the FBI (few hours ago) to make sure they act IMMEDIATELY on the investigation to this sad and emotional case.

One day, we will get there as a nation.

I’m not in support of extra judicial killing of any race

Police kill more whites than blacks in US, the officer that killed George Floyed has been dismissed, but he must face the law and sentence appropriately, I’m sure it’ll be done since the president has directed fbi to step in, but it’s sickening blacks can’t engage in peaceful protest, we saw how armed whites protest at Virginia, orderly and peaceful but the same can’t be said bout us... too bad cause this won’t bring back George



Civil disobedience is different from theft, target supermarket employs people of all races, stop justifying rubbish Mr...

Martin Luther king and Malcom X were both leader of the black resistance against racial oppression in the 60s, former supported peaceful protest while the later supports violence protest, we can see the leader with a lasting legacy between the two today



How’s my post self hating? by the way I’m not your darling

Funniest thing is Malcolm X was already embracing the peaceful way and Martin Luther was swerving towards the violent way evident through his rhetorics before his death.

Martin Luther has a lasting legacy today because of the whites supported him. Half of the people in his rallies were white people. The whites control the narratives of everything including matters concerning the negroes.

The issue is stealing people's resources. I do not support the brutality however it is insane for those blacks to loot people's properties all in the name of protest. Perhaps you supported Nigerians looting shoprite during the afriphobia saga I suppose?.

This is exactly what blacks get no respect anywhere.

A fellow black is chocked to death in the streets and all other blacks can think of is how to use the opportunity to steal stuff.

After I saw the video yesterday first thing I said was "there's going to be a lot of looting" and I was right.

Same thing happened after Rodney King got that ass whooping in LA and same thing happens at any other event like this.

Funny enough blacks kill more blacks than white cops can ever hope to but you'll never see black communities protesting enmasse against the crips and bloods and all those senseless gangbanging they have going on on their hoods.

Heck they even create music that promotes killing each other over the dumbest reasons.

For some reason black people worldwide have gotten the understanding of the world upside-down

The self hate is glaring (check above)
Self hate and mental slavery are doing yo-yo with your mind. Read up structural violence and learn, because I now know I was definitely right when I called you ignorant. Your ignorance is screaming blue murder. It is wailing and this is echoing and reverberating through time, into posterity’s records’ book.

You had (have) to be my darling, because that is the only way I won’t feel like plucking out your eyes darling, for that and this terrible posts of yours.

Don't be deceived that part of town is probably more white dominated so you can see more blacks there and looting but there are videos of whites looting as well. How long will it take the Police to atleast arrest the officer that knelt on George Floyd's neck and killed on camera and in broad daylight while passersby where begging him to atleast stop hurting the man. I dare say u. They should keep protesting till the govt reacts.

PS:The comments here are simply a testament of the conditioning by the west and ignorance of the dehumanization of blacks and people of African race all over the world through media, govt policies etc and this has gone on for far too long. FAR TOO LONG.

Now they are there in America receiving beating and concking on their head from white racist men. And now we should cry for them.

they won't. There are even a few ones here on Nairaland. They don't waste time before shiitting on Nigeria, telling you how corrupt and criminal minded we are. They are the same everywhere even on Twitter. Just disagree with them or have a little personal banter with them they'll start berating your country. They're hypocrites. They accuse whites of white supremacy yet they feel they are superior to Africans living in Africa because they live in a better country.
