#1 After 'close examination' a refund policy emerges... how positively civilized of your governments, you finally realized 'go woke, go broke' is a DEAD, END.

#2 "BLM" will go down in our nation's history as a freak episode of masochism, stupidity, and mass hysteria that enabled a small crew of retarded grifters to pull off a Madoff-style fraud.

It's like a fairy tale out of Grimm or Hans Christian Andersen... like the Pied Piper, or the Emperor's New Clothes. A parable of humans' desperate need to believe in nonsense, and their perennial willingness to be deceived by charlatans.

#3 /\ I was thinking something along the lines of a by-product of government enforced affirmative action. A "perennial willingness to be deceived by charlatans"....essentially the same dynamic.

#4 I'd put that money into a wall or moat.

#5 ^ with razor wire, gators, watchtowers and armed sentries with German shepherds and rotary-wing aircraft support

#6 a by-product of government enforced affirmative action

That would provide the expository, first part of the fairy tale.

Like the part describing how it was that the good burghers of Hamlin came to invite the Piper into their city, or the description of how the tailor-grifters measured the Emperor for his new suit

#7 BLM is in this country's tradition of Salem, the Martian invasion of New Jersey, and the Great Satanic Daycare Kidnapper Hoax of the late 1980s.

With an overlay of Barnum, Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker, and Ebbers Sanford Madoff Epstein

#8 All made possible by SCOTUS which has made the media exempt for all intents and purposes from libel and fraud. If there were consequences for corrupt corporate behavior as in any other industry for misrepresentation and fraud, a lot of the 'newest crisis' hype would disappear.

#9 Another twist in the take. Looks like it could be the end o' the grift for one of the Emperor's New Clothes tailor-grifters

On to the next grift.

"WokeCoin"?

BLM-NFTs?

Maybe a "SPAC" (Special Purpose Acquisition Company) backed by Oprah, Snoop, JayZ, Hunter Biden, the Duke and Duchess of Markle?

#10 Who would want to be a sacrificial offering cop in the present day? The feckless grifters won't support you and you'll spend your time denigrated and frustrated by the Pols and DA's

#11 Pathetic.

#12 In plea bargains, the DA negotiates the assault upon cops out of the charges. Why should anyone want to be a cop after that happening time and time again, then suffer at the hands of pols desperate to retain power as to offer them up as sacrifices.

#13 So they begrudgingly restore the money; good luck finding cops willing to put up with all this bullshit.

#15 Thanks to Black Lives Matter money she now owns 4 of her own plantations.
