The only thing wrong with these wasted sacks of flesh getting shot is that the shooter missed their heads. Also now they’re going to get more attention and more undeserved sympathy.
BLM is a terrorist group, plain and simple. If you want to go around the country inciting racial division and violence against whites and the police, harassing and physically attacking people, and systematically trying to silence and economically harm anyone who disagrees with your racist extremism, especially on college campuses, don’t be surprised when someone stands up to your shit.
There is little to no difference to this event than if a KKK protest in full garb walking down the streets of Chicago holding nooses and burning crosses got shot at.
Hell, even a KKK march is more innocent than these people. Even the protesters admitted that they physically struck and chased down the guys with the gun before they fired at them.

But KKK protests in full garb walking down the streets of Chicago holding nooses and burning crosses is perfectly legal under the First Amendment as long as they don't attack anyone physically or deliberately counsel people to do so. That's already been tested by SCOTUS. Shooting them isn't. That applies equally to BLM.
>Advocates vigilante murder of assembled protestors
>Advocates murdering people with a history of violence being used against them.
>Calls the protesters the real terrorists.
That mirror sure is shiny, shitbird.
"People" like you are why BLM exists.
Man, they just aren't making terrorists the way they used to. I mean, shouting and marching can be annoying, but terrifying it isn't.
Funny how what constitutes an immediate danger to ones's person changes depending on race.
For example a lone unarmed man who may not even be aware of your presence poses enough of a hazard to justify arming yourself with any manner of firearm and travelling more than a block to try and take them unawares. As long as that man is black and you are not very few questions will be asked even if you give chase, shoot them multiple times in the back, or were in the process of trespassing on your neighbour's property.
A very stark contrast to Paradoxed's requirement that masked men with guns making explicit threats have to be shooting right at you before you have a right to even raise your voice back at them without being considered the hostile party. Even if said men have text logs and recorded themselves on effing video stating their intention to gather together on that day for the express purpose of provoking a confrontation and escalating it to ominously worded ends.
Edit:
Masked men who not only escaped the area easily and without injury which seems fairly unbelievable if they were being swarmed as Paradoxed claims - a claim the triggerman Allen Scarsella did not make when he reported himself to police - but also escaped without a swift police response despite the shooting being quite literally within earshot of the Fourth Precinct who issued a statement the previous week that they were aware of several armed agitators making threats against the protesters.
Aware... but evidently not motivated to do anything about it given the very reason BLM was camped on their doorstep was to call their integrity into question. A question I think holds quite well considering. Scarsella may be facing a maximum of 55 years in prison but his co-conpirators... well their charges are something of a cross between a joke and an insult. A single charge each of second degree riot without factoring incitement.
Anyone want to take a wild guess how many charges each man would be facing if they were Muslims who showed up at a Koran burning armed to the teeth and wearing concealing clothes with so much a whisper that they planned to kick off a riot?
@ Passerby: but remember, liberals are the real racists for pointing out their racism, because Obama is president and a couple of states finally got around to electing a black lieutenant governor by 2015 so racism totes doesn't exist anymore and its all just an excuse for gungrabbers to ban ahr gunz and such and furthermore.

Seriously, that's how my Facebooking relatives think. My wall is a solid sheet of high-grade derp after every new shooting or fresh incident where some retarded redneck Marine Todd wannabe with a Charles Bronson fantasy chases down an unarmed kid for the crime of walking down the sidewalk while black. Or just quietly menaces a Muslim woman for buying groceries. Or who gets tossed out of Starbucks along with his moron buddies because they went in packing more heat than some police forces, for some reason, because you obviously need enough firepower to wipe out a small town at your side whenever you order white chocolate cappuccino.

Even if that's true, first amendment means it's not open season on the marchers.
Dear, Paradumbo; So you think that when black people get murdered willy-nilly by police officers without any just cause whatsoever, that they should just sit back and take it? Are you sure you're even human? Do you understand human nature?
OP: "How dare a certain demographic protest getting killed for no reason!"
Fuck the BLM movement, just as racists themselves. Members are who get butthurt when the media pays attention to a terrorist attcking killing 100 plus instead of them. Think the women who say all lives matters is racist and went after her.
@creativerealms
Not Bernine for having no backbone and giving in. If it was for everyone else being far far worst I would say fuck him for looking like a president that would just give in at the first sign of trouble.
Bigoted Lives Don't Matter.
...doesn't sound very nice, eh? Well, now you know how you sound.
Enjoy being Paradoxed.
@ NeoMatrix
Dismissing BLM because they are protesting a social ill (that unlike most SJW/Chronic Crusaders is of actual relevance and direct consequence to them) in general? Insulting them not because of any of the times rocks and molotovs get thrown or because many among them believe their victimization entitles them to be surly and vent their frustration on others but because they feel victimized?
And this makes them as bad as a trio of armed racists trying to start a riot or the widespread almost systematic negligence in police proceedings wherever the black community is involved to the point where it is indistinguishable from malice but the greater scope of the public opinion goes to extraordinary and in many cases uncharictaristic or hypocritcal lengths to excuse when they come to light?
I get being weary of it all and I myself have pointed out the stupidity of sweeping dirt under the rug for one side of a drawn out conflict just because you sympathize with them slightly more than the other but it doesn't excuse unqualified condemnations and comparisons with no tangible basis. Especially not where real blood is getting spilled precisely because of stubborn generalizations and the reduction of people to faceless inhuman concepts you should never feel bad about.
I think you can be better than this.

@Passerby
As I said, I don't like either side. There are definitely serious issues with police brutality in America which need to be fixed, don't get me wrong, but assassinating cops (and calling for their murder) isn't the right response. Also, taking over college campuses and taking down college administrations over "microaggressions" while censoring other views (and censorship is a huge berserk button to me) doesn't help BLM's image in my eyes.
IF they want to go around doing that, yes. But they don't, they want to end racial division and violence against black people, and stop the harassment and physical attacks of black people.
Shooting at marches is bad, whether it's the BLM or the KKK, yes.
Confused?
