      So I guess the revolutionaries that a white supremacist and/or want to “make America great again“ are all doing it for a place of love as well? And I’ll tell you what, many of those have many more supporters than this guy does.

      It’s funny how a lot of the same stuff I said about the January 6 insurrectionists. People often want to believe in heroes that are really villains. I don’t know the truth, but many people fool themselves into believing they do.

      @@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879 no he isn't. He didn't kill the cop. Another cop did, Mumia was nearby yes, but he was in his car. He never killed that cop. There was no evidence of him ever even killing the cop nor were there any records of people ever doing prints or nothing. Witnesses said he did but only because the cops threatened their lives unless they sided against him. Not to mention a lot of this was just assumptions. (Learned it at school too) so get your facts straight before you make assumptions please.

    That is an enlightened man. No hatred of malice to the pig who kicked a citizen be SWORE TO GOD to protect in the face, because was a man with a different skin tone. A black man. Those blue pants with the stripe gave that mane the power of life of death over human being.
    I have learned similar lesson in life.
    For me, I cam from a kind and loving, peaceful family. Going to school was like going to life's Gladiator academy. If someone saw weakness I would have been kicked down every day and even from childhood into high school. I was truly me before I was introduced to the system. Then I discovered all the other kids were tryyto be like their dads. I heard racism (never heard it before) and derogatory names to other people. I didn't become racist. But I joined bullies. Race was not an issue, our state had no cultural variety. Even first veneration Australian, kids with itialian and Greek heritage were considered exotic.
    My first and only aboriginal friend became my best friend. You people wouldn't believe gow dispicably rare it is to see an aboriginal perso as part of every day socieiety.
    It's disgusting how aboriginal people are treated in this country and genocide is, as it was where. The colonial masters decided terra nullius and filled this county with criminals... White criminals the British were prepared to defend with lethal force.
    Terra nullius meant there were no people here. Just animals. The Aboriginals were treated worse than animals.
    PS. FREE MUMIA!!! ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏽✊🏻

    lol , she said I hopes he dies there , well at least it not a movie theater , school , or event where you feel like meeting your congressional representative , see police protect some and suppress others . so if a cop gets shot in the line of duty , in which he signed on to be a gun totting security officer of the law , I would expect him to be shot ,as I would a fire man getting burned , If the burden of proof was on the gov , we all have the right to review it don't we ?

    🤔 ~ Maybe Revolution “inside“ because once people are inside they have to actually start thinking about what will make sense and what will actually work, not just pure ideology. Kind of like a Quaker saying they will never go to war even if the countries invaded. That’s cute to believe, much different to actually do. I don’t know.
    And another thing that’s very perplexing, how can you say a true revolutionary always comes from a place of love. That sounds completely foolish as well. I would say, just from the top of my head, they either come from a place of hate, fear, or anger. The love could also be one of those possibilities. Are you telling me that a Nazi or white supremacist who believes the USA should go back to being white is doing it from a place of love? They may think they’re doing it from a place of loving the country and loving the white race, but I wouldn’t call that love. But I guess according to your definition that would be. See how foolish that sounds.
