What the bloody hell is going on in that area? The report is cryptic to say the least. This part is especially mystifying:

“Obinwanne Iwu, 34, who is an escapee of Imo Correctional Centre, Owerri, went to the market with his gang, trying to enforce a sit-at-home order of the proscribed IPOB/ESN terror group.

“They were shouting at the top of their voices that ‘today is Monday and everybody must obey the sit-at-home order.

To me it's a great example for BLM in the U.S. of how their plan to have an idyllic society by defunding and then abolishing police and prisons would work out, since the only obvious thing is that police are not in control there. A place where no one can hear your screams if they are not reported clearly.

He includes you, too, Melbourne tradesmen (doesn't look promising at all!):

Right now in Melbourne, Australia the most severe clash to date between workers and the state over mandated jabs as thousands of unionized construction tradesmen take the streets.

Tradies promise to come out “every day” to fight the health tyranny.

They’re just getting started.

A video that’s circulating online was edited to misrepresent what President Joe Biden said about preparing for hurricanes. Get the facts from @AP. https://t.co/T0oWRX4Y5x

What he was saying is actually extremely wise, exactly the kind of point a president should be making to the whole country!

I ALWAYS immediately think of this now anytime I see photos of people suffering a natural disaster anywhere around the world: are they vaccinated? why aren't they wearing masks? A pandemic thrives on disaster! The classic example is the 1918 pandemic and WWI:

1918 Pandemic Influenza Historic Timeline

In 1918, a new influenza virus emerged. During this same time period World War I was taking place. The conditions of World War I (overcrowding and global troop movement) helped the 1918 flu spread. The vulnerability of healthy young adults and the lack of vaccines and treatments created a major public health crisis, causing at least 50 million deaths worldwide, including approximately 675,000 in the United States. Below is a historical timeline of major events that took place during this time period....

And hey, looking that up, I also see we have basically passed the number of deaths of the 1918 pandemic!

Hah, "three black Karens",

In reply to 3 Black Karens, can we say

Hah, "three black Karens", gets at the heart of it. they may have had black skin but they caused a ruckus just as if they were white yahoos from Texas. The first gut interpretation everyone had is still correct. All the more ridiculous that BLM will be protesting. What they really will be protesting is prejudice against the unvaccinated, no question about it. Any name calling by either side came after the fact.

edit to add, a popular hashtag in Houston: #Ghetto. That actually could signify any color of skin, it's about a culture and behavior.
