uunwanaobong3:
As for the protest in America is good oooooo,. BUT it is a good protest at a very wrong time. Here are my reasons;

1) over thousand and millions of people have gather in America and other parts of the world to protest,,,, have we even realize that this is a pandemic period that we should be isolating.......... Because of Floyd's death, I can see more than 500,000 covid infection and more than50,000 people dying due to Corona virus infection within the crowd..... Democrat and CNN will not talk about this repercussion, they want to blame everything on Trump.
U wouldn't see the WHO coming out to warn the people about the dangers of large gathering and protesting world wide at this dangerous times of covid19 ............................. Also i feel that state governors in USA and other world leaders like in Canada, Britain etc purposely exposed their people to contact more covid infection and death, by standby and watch while the people gather in large number. Whatever evil intension those leaders have, right it is only God that can serve those mass protesters....... This action alone can bring about second wave of the virus which will be fatal

2) the world is under great economics depression and in America alone there are 50million job losses, ... The protesters who are vandalising and burning down businesses all in the name of protest and are being encouraged by CNN and Democrat governors, have they realize that this rascal behavior will lead to more recession and job lose for innocent citizen........ I know they want to blame everything on Trump.

3) the whole thing has turned political through CNN and action of Democrat governors.
First, it was about impeachment of trump, they failed.

Then come Corona virus, .....instead of the press to tackle china and WHO for the spread of Corona virus in the world, the press world wide were tackling Trump as if Trump is the president of the world and as if Trump was the one that brought the virus to the world...... In Democrat state like new York, governors freely allow the people to get infected, so as to blame Trump for the numbers of the dead, the media we're insulting the president up and down with stupid questions during presidential press briefing....,.over 100,000 Americans have died mostly in Democrat state.. again they have failed because U.S have done x10 more tests than any country, more ventilator and PPE than any country........ CNN have realized that people are no longer buying the lying stories about Trump, so if you observed, they no longer report on covid stories gain, they have now shifted their attention to racism....

thank God Trump has taken U.S out of WHO.
Let me see how China will fund WHO.

What police did was wrong, and the policemen were duly sacked, arrested and charged with murder, ..... But the press and CNN chooses to feed on the story, encouraging voilent protest and destruction of public/private properties....
The Democrat state governors and states police chooses to standby and watch public properties going up in flame without taking any action to stop the vandalism....... And when Trump condemned their weakness and conspiracy, they begin to criticized him...... To an extent that CNN decide to send a black reporter on a Frontline between police and riot protesters, when the reporter was arrested for endangering his own security (he could be hit by stray bullet bottle, stone, fireworks etc) they changed the narrative to racism.

Finally Trump is not perfect oooooo, infact he can't talk as a president, he is so unpolished in his act, but believe me Democrat, press and other world leaders are trying to destroy Mr Trump, using the poor masses as collateral damages.

If there is one thing I know, Trump really care for Americans but doesn't give a shit about outside world,... Americans should indeed appreciate their president because he loves them.

Trump is the most insulted president in the world, even a small boy like mark Zuckerberg, get the guts (mind) to remove a presidential address to the nation on Tweeter......... That is the highest level of disrespect to the office of the president of United States of America.............. If I were Trump Zuckerberg would have paid heavily for every bit of that disrespect.... Zuckerberg would have stayed alive and watch helplessly as his billions becomes thousands.

Even a Chinese jornalist get mine to ask Trump a very stupid question about trump Corona virus competition, ..... a question that even she dare not ask Chinese president xie.

It was so disgusting to watch a police inspector yesterday on CNN telling a whole US president (Mr Trump) that if he does not have anything to say "HE SHOULD SHUT UP"... simply because Trump criticized them for allowing vandalism to take place.......... ..I am not sure any president in the world would have taken this lightly from a public official.....he wasn't even warn by CNN to at least respect office that Trump occupied.

CNN has loose all credibility, they have shown that they are media wing of Democrat party by reporting loop sided stories. E.g when the protesters were disperse at White House so that Trump could have access to the vandalized St John's Church... the media says that the protesters were peaceful, but the question is if the protesters were peaceful, why was that church vandalized in the first place........... there is a lot of cover up in the media so as to carried out their evil intension of misinforming the world.

Honestly I must commend the endurance of Mr Trump, u really try to endure them

Black community should be very careful in this crises, they start on a positive note ..... But when the going get bad and urgly, they (black) will be blamed for everything that happened. Nobody will mention the white, Chinese, Hispanics or other ethnic groups
You sound like a M.oron

Very good

Martin Luther King, Malcom X and other black activists never led a violent protest..They never looted and they all passed a message while protesting peacefully.


Precisely!!!... I don't quite get all the violence and looting!!!... This is grossly unacceptable and highly condemnable!!!... It defeats the whole essence of the protests.

Whoever started this protest should be held accountable... This is all shades of wrong, especially in the midst of a pandemic.

you're saying all these because you've not witnessed the stinking discrimination from this black Americans
even with their root in Africa
they still refer to Africans are monkeys and other sorts of racism to their fellow blacks.
trust me these people are far worst than whites if you have encountered them
they'll only trigger black lives matters when they are faced with the white supremacist, they'll remember they have black brothers in Africa for solidarity.
they think because they have a better working government than Africans makes them more Supreme than their fellow blacks.

Let them face their horrors
we have tribalism and xenophobia to deal with afterall we Africans and blacks don't fancy ourselves.
less than two weeks ago Nigerians where racially abusing Kenyans on twitter calling them blacks cheesy yes you heard me right, blacks calling blacks black cheesy
funny isn't it?
they call it twitter war forgetting these white supremacist are watching
when you don't respect and value yourself
Don't expect others to do that for you.

Forget about traveling
we've been surviving in a far racism countries from Italy to Asia
the aim is to make money and come back
black Americans should face their problems
we have ours here

Ma, I stand and will always stand with the truth.
Black Americans dislike Africans because they thought Africans dislike them. Have you forgotten that many of them were sold off by us? And we get in return Mirrow, glasses, umbrella for selling our fellow black children to white people. Many Black Americans read a lot of their history and they know how they got to the United State, one was even telling me about Yoruba slave trade, ma, read about it, if you won't see how wicked our people were to them. Then go read what they passed through as slaves.

Now their children read these stories,history and it affects them psychologically, the worst of it all is that Africans never even supported them during their fights in the US for freedom in the 90's. This kind of solidarity wasn't done by our grand Fathers when the blacks were fighting for so many things, but what were Africans doing? They were busy judging them and even till today, Africans are kings of judger's, we judge everything.
Africans never showed love to these people, and imagine how much they wanted to come back to Africa when they were slaves, and even till now, many of them still love Africa, just that they love Africa so much that they hate. If you understand psychology, you will understand the type of dislike they have for Africa, its a dislike from love. Its just like a child hating his mother because of some past things, the child love the mother so much that he hates and blame her for everything.

Ma, when has Africans stand in solidarity with them? And yet they all come to enjoy the America that they fought so hard for to be recognized as humans. When has Africa apologized for selling them to the whites?
They are justified for disliking Africa for selling their grandfathers to white people.
Check the picture I attached and see how some of them want unity with Africans. I

I see many of their posts and I could read their love for Africa.
I remember how happy they were when corona was not in Africa, and even if we ain't joining in solidarity because of them, can't we join because of our brothers and sisters living in the US, or are they different from black Americans in skin colour? Whites see them as same people

Donald trump should be careful because he is the major cause of this unrest. You dont use fire to fight fire.

His words are like salt being poured on injuries and making it worse. He is escalating tensions with his tweets and statements. He is not acting like a leader at all. He hasn't addressed the nation.

He doesn't deserve a second term.

The bold is one of the reasons he was elected.
It is the same reason many Africans especially Nigerians defend all
of his actions.
It turns out that white supremacy isn't a problem for a significant portion of Americans and the world.
They may speak about it, but they don't really care.

He is about to go down. He is making the gravest mistake with this protest.

When Wizkid called him clueless..

That may be the angle from which he was seeing it..



"The killing of George ..is unacceptable and does not represent we are as Americans..
We urge everyone aggrieved over his provocative death to please calm down ..we promise justice will be served.."

words like these could have calmed some aggrieved protesters down..

Not some, many if not majority.

That's why I said he doesn't want to sound empathetic to black resistance movement.

This is where Obama would have shined with his oratory or vocal skills and leadership.

Yes, don't mind all the hypocrite Nigerians. They all want to travel to the US, but do not care about how Blacks is treated in the US.
I used to see black people say, Africans want to reap their effort by coming to America, I used to not understand until now. When I see what Black's in the US have gone through, what they have fought for, and how they have allowed the whites to see blacks as humans.
If black people were not allowed to walk the street of America without severe racism attacks, will their mothers even have mouth to pray that their children should go abroad

So, what is your point exactly??!.. Blacks in America can never do any wrong??!... It is okay for them to destroy people's livelihood and peace??!... We should pat them on the back while they burn the nation to the ground??!... Is that your idea of solidarity??!

No sane African supports or will support oppression of his fellow black man anywhere in the world, certainly not after what we witnessed in our very own South Africa decades ago... But, there is a line!!!... A thin line between facts and bias!!!... You should never muddy such lines... Call a spade what it is!!!... This is not the way to solve problems that affect an entire race! Even the true heroes of this fight for equality practiced and taught non violence!!!
