With all the violence associated with BLM supporters how could anyone support the organization? And not just the violence, but the radical ideology behind it?
Every person of good will believes that “black lives matter.” But supporting the BLM because they have a nice sounding name without looking at what they are all about or the history of what their supporters have done is a bit like thinking Antifa is really antifascist or the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is actually “democratic.”
But that’s the problem. Many companies and organizations don’t look beyond the name and/or they want to go along with the crowd and not get cancelled.
But NFL great Herschel Walker had a message for those people, particularly the ones in sports, the NFL, NBA, WNBA, MLB: Do you really understand what you are supporting? Wake up, are we being played? If we love our Country, let’s speak up, stand up and protect it!
America wake up…if we love our Country, let's speak up, stand up and protect it!🇺🇸 #arewebeingplayed @espn @FoxNews @CNN @ESPNNBA @NFL @JudgeJeanine @WNBA @HARRISFAULKNER pic.twitter.com/rkZkZLEdP2

Walker spoke about how the BLM folks had been burned the Holy Bible and the American flag.
I reported last night that some people were burning Bibles at the antifa/BLM protest in Portland. Here is video: pic.twitter.com/K5WK5qNYlA

Here’s the video of what looks like it could be a cross, but the folks on scene didn’t identify it that way, so I can’t confirm that, could be flag poles or random pieces of wood crossed.

But certainly the other things were true as was the point he was making.
Walker asked those sports organizations what exactly was it they were supporting, were they supporting this behavior and these beliefs?
you don't want to interrupt his workout. Love this man. https://t.co/DWP6eHOo1n

Folks supporting this, including and especially politicians or any companies giving financial support to this, must be called out.
Republicans get it.
This is the radical Left’s vision for our country: Setting fire to the Bible, cheering while burning the American flag and chanting “f*** Trump.”

On top of how disgusting an act/message it is burning bibles, US flags & buildings, looting, attacking cops, etc, it’s also being witnessed all over the world & exploited by adversaries abroad. These rioters are helping make a mockery of our great nation. https://t.co/DrsGPhfil5

But Democrats have not only been silent, they’ve even defended it, with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi even attacking law enforcement as “stormtroopers” and excusing the ripping down of the statues as “people will do what they do.”
