It sounds like consumers in Chicago should just stay home on Black Friday, which is actually today. Black Lives Matter lives to riot and make life harder on white people, especially police officers. They rioted in Chicago last year blocking traffic into white-owned stores. They want people to shop only in black-owned businesses…doesn’t that make sense…they just want to cause trouble for the sake of disturbing the peace…hoping to reign death and destruction down on society. Last year, they blocked shoppers from entering stores on Black Friday to protest the death of Laquan McDonald, a black youth shot multiple times by an officer. Dash cam video revealed the teen ignoring officer commands to stop as he walked away from officers with a knife in his hands. These members of Black Lives Matter think if a suspect is black the police should turn a blind eye away and let them break the law as they please.
The police are under so much pressure right now because of these people like those members of Black Lives Matter. They want us to believe that police officers pick and choose black people from society to target, which is simply false. Last year businesses in Chicago that were targeted by BLM, sales were 25 to 50 percent below their expected projections, according to staff and managers.
Again remember BLM just wants you to shop in black-owned businesses, and things will stay calm. However, if you choose to walk into a white-owned business you will be blocked. This is racist and beyond the pale of imagination, especially that it is happening in America. Hopefully the Trump Administration will not encourage it the way the Obama Administration seemingly has.
One of the protest organizer hopes that this year’s protest will have a larger turnout.
“We’re expecting a bigger turnout this year, though this is not an exact science. The reason we’re looking for a bigger turnout is that Trump is the president-elect and, boy, are people pissed,”Frank Chapman, a field organizer with one of the organizations involved, said.
He added that not only race brings the protesters together. “We’ve been calling everyone who has a grievance: the African-American community, Latino people, the white working class,” Chapman explained. “I’m not going to write the white working class off as racist.”
