Black Lives Matter Leader: ‘If This Country Doesn't Give Us What We Want, Then We Will Burn Down This System'

[GP] Black Lives Matter greater New York Chair Hawk Newsome issued what many have interpreted as a terroristic threat during his appearance on Fox News Wednesday evening.

Mr. Newsome told Fox News host Martha MacCallum that if Black Lives Matter doesn’t get what they want, they will burn the system down.

"If this country doesn’t give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it.. I could be speaking figuratively. I could be speaking literally. It’s a matter of interpretation." said Newsome.

#3 Sounds like a terroristic threat. Another point of Black Privilege.

#6 Rhetorical question - if we had the means to take the imagery and sound of these days and send them back to 1862 and ask those of the North if they wanted for sacrifice 250,000 of their brothers, fathers, uncles and nephews for this, what would their reaction be?

#7 I am not so sure that the Civil War was really fought over slavery, but that the standard educational line, and we are stuck with it.

#8 /\ I never have been entirely certain either Clem, but in years past the topic has created some rather heated debate in this forum (as well as countless others). I finally decided to just go with the larger category, and blame it on slavery.

#9 #7 Not "over" but "because" - agricultural society based on slavery & industrial society cannot coexist in a single country. If you like, southern aristos had too much power.

#11 States right or slavery it really is the same thing when the only thing that tested states rights was slavery.

#12 Yesterday one of the founders of BLM (the billionaire creator of BET) stated it was time to form a BLM political party.

We have now entered the bargaining stage where the Democrats give promises to keep the blacks on the plantation... or else. In many ways this was a shakedown.

#13 13th AmendmentAmendment XIII
Section 1.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Section 2.
Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

In Congress, it was passed by the Senate on April 8, 1864, and by the House on January 31, 1865. The amendment was ratified by the required number of states on December 6, 1865.

Something that was not possible in 1860.

If you had any doubts.

#14 I could be speaking figuratively. I could be speaking literally.

Newsome is hedging what he says and walking the line between peaceful demonstrations and between inciting riots.

“You’re a daisy if you do” “You’re no daisy. No daisy at all.”
