Black Lives Still Matter

Black lives still matter folks, even though we've actively got white supremacists like David Duke and Don Advo joyfully bragging about how they now control the Republican party:

Don Advo: So, something astonishing has happened. We appear to have taken over the Republican Party.

David Duke: Well, rank and file, but a lot of those boll weevils are still in those cotton balls, and, uh, the Republican Party may be a European-American populated party, but like a ball of cotton, you can have boll weevils in there that are going to rot it out from the inside.
And I see we're back to the defense of white supremacy through the ridiculous argument that the NAACP is inherently racist again

The Confederate flag waved in front of the NAACP office Sunday. The red flag with its blue X holding white stars hung over the shoulder of a White Lives Matter member who was joined by others in his group in a protest against the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

"We came out here to protest against the NAACP and their failure in speaking out against the atrocities that organizations like Black Lives Matter and other pro-black organizations have caused the attack and killing of white police officers, the burning down of cities and things of that nature," White Lives Matter member Ken Reed said. "If they're going to be a civil rights organization and defend their people, they also need to hold their people accountable."
The protest drew much attention as people took photos of the group which held assault rifles and "White Lives Matter" signs on the Third Ward block.

"We're not out here to instigate or start any problems," Reed said. "Obviously we're exercising our Second Amendment rights but that's because we have to defend ourselves. Their organizations and their people are shooting people based on the color of their skin. We're not. We definitely will defend ourselves, but we're not out here to start any problems."

So we're back to the days where white supremacists are demonstrating in front of the national office of the NAACP in Houston with rifles, Confederate flags and a big ol' "#WhiteLivesMatter" sign.
 
But they're not here "to start any problems."

They're just here to provide Second Amendment remedies for the problems they think they need to stop.

Gotcha.
