My question was what does she mean by "unrest"...she and others are not condemning the violence.... they're actually encouraging and excusing it...

Is that the "unrest" she calls for? If not, what?

Of course it doesn't mean violence. Most normal ppl would call the Covidiot Crusaders' protests earlier in the pandemic "unrest," right? The rise of the Tea Party two minutes after Obama was first elected is another example of "unrest."

I'm in touch with the black community every day, as I have been for many many years....
Dr. MLK had a quote where he said that rioting was the voice of the unheard.
Whose voices are not being heard these days?
He would want people to come together in faith, love, unity.... and communicate... Talk about and solve the problems...Violence, rioting, looting doesn't do that....

None of those burned, looted and took over cities, did they?
Neither did the peaceful protestors.

Sadly "unrest" translates into violence, looting, rioting, arson, in todays America. If I'm not mistaken didn't the hate police agenda get it's start with the BLM liberal endorsed movement?
Then why won't they stop it themselves? It's hurting the public's view of their "cause."
Don’t be ridiculous
I'm not.

Nope, BLM is a legit organization and the voice of those who have been unheard for decades. The vast majority of recent protests regarding George Floyd were peaceful. But what gets all the coverage, esp. on RW media? The few who are behaving like fools. BTW, some of that arson and vandalize was done by whites. Like this one:

Why don't you Christians stop the few of you who promote racism, bigotry, homophobia, exclusion, hate? It's hurting the public's view of your religion.
Zing!
A little unrest back in the day. Oh, looting and destruction too. Oops.
Yep. Throwing crates of tea in the ocean. No takeover of cities, no burning buildings, looting businesses, or blocking streets. They were extremely violent!

BTW, we've been amused at your pretenses of "helping" the Columbus school district students and teachers "on a daily basis" even. How do you do that when they opted for virtual learning this semester? Oops.
I'm sure you'll be as relieved and happy as I am with my daughter's school district's decision to opt for remote instruction, at least for the first few weeks of the semester. As you know, she's a real SPED teacher. You should see the wonderful instructional videos she's produced for her students.
