#3 Did a local bike ride on Saturday, changed my course to cross over a certain intersection in Milton. There were six / eight people on the side of the road with BLM signs; all old white liberals. A few people honked; of the three that did, it was black folks driving those cars.

Milton might as well be Cambridge or Brookline.

#4 BLM is and always was a scam. A more effective version of a Sharpton Shakedown.

But unlike Sharpton, they cleverly did three things right. First, they narrowed their focus to the cops, tapping into the anarchists' "All Cops Are Bastards" energy and ensuring a never-ending supply of outrage by pretending every justified killing of a violent black douchebag -- Michael Brown, Breonna, St George -- was somehow a case of martyrdom.

Second, they escalated the violence. Sharpton staged one pogrom in Crown Heights in the mid-1980s. BLM killed DOZENS of killings in nonstop riots over hundreds of cities.

Finally, they enlisted the Democrats and their media whores in the struggle. Sharpton never cozied up to the Democrats or the Sulzbergers. BLM by contrast showed Pelosi, Biden, Harris and the rest that their anarchy and lies could be used to create an image of chaos that could be hung around Trump's neck.

And at the Times, BLM could be used by opportunistic, no-talented morons like Hannah Nikole Jones to gain fame, fortune and advancement at the expense of the Times' older white editors and writers whom they falsely accused of "racism."

In the end, BLM has been exposed as the biggest con job in US history. Sharpton must be burning with envy.

#6 ^ I recommend driving by and throwing black ink in their faces. Let them get beaten by Wakandan mobs.

#9 Milton might as well be Cambridge or Brookline.

It’s why I gave up in the diff in OTP and ITP and moved to Brookhaven.

No kids in school anymore so N Fulton nor Forsyth have any difference.
