No one is supporting the rioting and looting, but we should all, even the Jews of BP and Williamsburg, be supporting equality for all, PUBLICLY!

Would you hang a sign in front of your house?

Id consider doing it, but Im hesitant because kids may rip it up.

I guess if Id put it in my window, no one could reach it, but I want to see others do it first (Imas, please dont mock that).

Even though Floyd was a criminal, he shouldnt have been killed that way.

Are you ready to show compassion for a human being wronged badly?

They are blaming Jews and Israel for the murder of George Floyd, why would anyone want to march with them? https://www.algemeiner.com/202.....C2rhU

I don’t understand. All the officers involved in this act of police brutality are currently in custody and facing lengthy prison sentences if convicted. Is that not justice. The fact that this is the case proves that there no inequality. A few bad People did a bad thing and are going to pay the price. What else is there to it???

Figure out why it happened in the first place - and make changes to stop it from happening again.

I held up a BLM sign at my window when a protest group marched by.

I don't think anyone could see it from several floors up.

If I was going to put a picture up I’d put up the pics of the Jersey city victims.
Not a pic of a violent criminal.

We know why. An arresting officer ignored the pleas of a proven criminal that he can't breathe and he died.

Looting Tiffany's isn't going to change that. It's just going to make the next officer assume the criminal is lying to get him off his neck.

How many black people came out publicly against the Chanuka shooting? If you had to start listing them THAT'S TOO FEW.

It happened because police tend to think they are above the law. NOT because of racism. Is looting and rioting the way to change police corruption and brutality, or would there be a more intelligent way to address it?
Honestly, I think the riots have a lot more to do with coronavirus shutdowns and the current ridiculously extreme political climate than with any sort of logical attempt to change things.

Okay. Not sure how this relates to what I wrote.


Its rather common that after something really crappy happens - there is a review of why it happened and new safeguards put it to deter it from happening again.

I think the “justice for George” calls are Disingenuous (he is getting justice), and the calls to join the protests are sheer pandering and trying to get the rest of the world to love us, kind of like when the leftists in Israel cozy up to the arabs. George already is getting justice; the officers have been charged and will no doubt all be convicted, probably of stronger charges than they should be, all because of the pressure, the rioting, the threats, the intimidation from the protesters.

I don't live in NYC, but -- as much as I think this was a case of police brutality, and as much as I agree that police brutality is obviously a bad thing -- considering all the shady groups glomming onto these protests, I would be hesitant to publicly affiliate with them in any way.

Do most think Simcha Eichenstein represents citizens who mostly dont feel the way he says he does, that its a good deed, and helpful for race-relations, to show compassion p e a c e f u l l y, by hanging a sign, and hes only hanging the sign because hes a politician, to make his fellow Democratic politicians look kindly on him?
