BLM Rioters: ‘We Are Never Going To Be Satisfied’

'I don’t want to say we need to start killing all white folks, but it’s like…'

Black Lives Matter rioters in Minneapolis and several other major cities continued to make their presence felt throughout American cities yesterday, even after the conviction of former police officer Derek Chauvin in the George Floyd murder trial.

The rioters who filled the streets throughout the country had a common message for law-abiding Americans: Chauvin’s conviction will never be enough to address what they see as systemic problems.

“We’re not gonna stop just because we got one conviction,” said one BLM rioter who referred to American policing “genocide,” according to the Post Millennial. “We are never going to be satisfied.”

Critics of the ongoing race-riots, which began shortly after Floyd’s Memorial Day death, have often noted that the spate of police shootings—whether justifiable or not—have offered a convenient excuse for so-called activists to engage in atrocious acts of violence, looting and vandalism.

Politically opportunistic Democrats have followed suit, tacitly or explicitly encouraging the riots, first to undermine the Trump administration and now to lend additional momentum to a radical power-grab under the guise of criminal-justice reform.

After having enjoyed a taste of lawlessness, some fear it may be impossible to rein in the reckless, race-baiting juggernaut, even when all its demands have been met.

“We need to be going way beyond voting at this point,” one rioter said. “We need to be coming out here every single day if that’s what it takes. If we don’t change laws, and we don’t attack this system from every single f****** angle we can, we will be here again.”

Another rioter shouted that “Derek Chauvin’s police department burned to the ground,” which led the crowd of rioters to cheer wildly.

Others claimed that harming white people is the only way to bring justice.

“I don’t want to say we need to start killing all white folks, but it’s like…” one of BLM extremists told reporter Ami Horowitz.

“But…?” Horowitz questioned.

“Maybe they need to feel the pain and the hurt,” she finished.

Although slightly more eloquent in their wordage, leftist leaders largely echoed the activist calls, urging followers not to be placated by the verdict but to demand further action.

“We still must reform the system,” said Vice President Kamala Harris while pitching a criminal-justice reform bill named after Floyd.

“…The president and I will continue to urge the Senate to pass this legislation, not as a panacea for every problem but as a start,” she continued.

Harris went on to claim that the radical overhaul of policing was “long overdue.”

“America has a long history of systemic racism,” she said. “Black Americans—and black men, in particular—have been treated throughout the course of our history as less than human.”

President Joe Biden likewise claimed that the Chauvin verdict was not enough.

Not to be outdone, notably woke “Squad” leader Rep. Alexandra Ocasio–Cortez, D-NY, dispelled the notion that Chauvin’s conviction was a triumph for the rule of law.

“This is not justice,” she said. “I also don’t want this moment to be framed as this system working, because it is not working and that is what creates a lot of complexity in this moment.”
