Fox counts 17 deaths since Floyd's death.
https://www.fox6now.com/news/deadly-unrest-here-are-the-people-who-have-died-amid-george-floyd-protests-across-us
That's also approximately the number of unarmed Black deaths caused by police per year. Most all of these deaths resulted from resisting arrest. Like you say, in a country of 330 million people this is ridiculously low. This is manufactured outrage.
If Black Lives Mattered to Blacks, they could focus on the child sex trade. An estimated about 200000 American children are in the sex trade per year. An estimated 62% of those are Black children or about 125000 people. The only real hope these victims have is the local police, and the Black community is vilifying the police on made up fairy tale abuse accusations.

On one hand, you have Biden who actually got down on one knee in support of this made up crisis. On the other hand, you have Trump grounded in reality supporting the police.
Patrick saysMeanwhile there have been more than 500 real, actual, on the ground violent riots by BLM and pantyfa across the US, and oh, zero riots by anyone on the right. Zero.
Name more than 10 civilians killed by BLM with their obituaries as proof in the last 4 years. Being a victim of “BLM Terrorism” is ridiculously low. Your odds of dying from covid are higher. (See what I did there). And if you are not a moron that goes out in a counter-protest at 2am wearing a MAGA hat your odds of being a victim are zero.
More BLM protestors have been run over by cars and shot in the face by rubber bullets than any attacks they’ve committed on innocent civilians.
Look, I don’t go to Harrison, Arkansas wearing a BLM T-shirt for the same reason a person wearing a MAGA hat in Compton is a moron. Our country is divided as fuck and Trump is driving that wedge deeper every fucking da...

This is a stupid thing to do. The "news" media has been painting Trump supporters are violent, mindless assholes for 3 years - we don't need any dickheads trying to push confirmation bias.

TDS confirmation bias is off the charts these days. The TDS-afflicted desperately look for the slightest hint of "racism" and "fascism" to confirm their hate, and are utterly blind to the extreme racism of the left, and the violent intolerance of free speech by the left.
To see the truth would utterly upend their carefully constructed false reality.
It must be a difficult way to live, given that actual reality is so far removed from their beliefs. A think a lot of their hate is driven by the fear of admitting that they have been so very wrong for years.

@Fortwaynemobile - Yelp will now label some businesses as "raycist" based on user comments - I wonder how well that will go over...

Yelp and its congeners are extortion and blackmail libel rackets operating under color of Constitutional speech protection and consumer education.
People seem to be paying less attention to them as time goes on, but the anonymous begrudged (usually over common deadbeat billing matters or minor consumer gripes) have a field day there trashing at will, and then, the site comes to you to solicit paid 'advertising' which enables you to control your content. At least that's how it worked a while ago.

Businesses have complained about yelp since the very beginning. Bad reviews show up, and then yelp calls them and offers various benefits of their premium services, which in
ways will help make those bad reviews, or the impact of them, go away. They word things carefully, but at the end of the day, you pay $$$ and your bad reputation gets diminished.
So ya, they've been accused of cleverly disguised extortion and racketeering for a lonnnng time.
This new racism alert is likely the next chapter. It will start out looking like they have no profit motives, just virtuous "social justice" by being "good stewards of their platform". But in time, after they've established this publication of these accusations of racism as being normal in society, some profit angle will probably emerge. And their users get to feel virtuous in the mean time when negotiating where they should have lunch w/ friends - "oh, yelp said TexasBigBBQ might be racist. Can we go to SoyFactory instead?"
Then again, this really might just be hostile leftists blackmailing yelp execs into doing this by accusing them of not doing enough to fight racism. I could see "You have the platform, if you refuse to use it for the force of good, you must be a racist too!!! Silence is violence!!"
We should ask yelp if they're willing to tag and warn users of businesses that have pedo employees?

Does Yelp allow Yelp to be reported as racist for being obsessed with race?

THIS. THIS is what's causing the division. The Democrats have focused on "removing" Trump and not anything of substance. Not policy. Not what they'd do better (because they can't) They're the ones pushing the Trump narrative and dividing. I wasn't a Trump supporter, but people like you saying "fingers crossed by the of the year" are driving people into Trump camp. You're divisive.
Also, it can't be the end of the year. Inauguration is in January....
But his rhetoric is literally fomenting rage in this country that’s not going away until he’s gone. Fingers crossed by end of the year.

Lol, it's true that kamala means horrible in Finnish:

I use Yandex translate rather than Google translate because it works the same and isn't part of the Google dystopian panopticon.

I live it. Have a nephew with a deadbeat baby daddy. The meme is 1,000% true. Taking him to St. John USVI next week. Show the kid what hard work and being there can do. He's going to have a blast. No cruise ships either, the place is gonna be a ghost town, which is awesome.
If you are offended by this meme, I don't give a shit.
