If you haven’t heard of Avi Yemini, he is Australia’s answer to Tommy Robinson. And not the kind of bloke you’d like to meet in a dark alley. Having said that, you don’t have to like a man to agree with what he says, and when he talks sense, you should agree with him, period.
The insanity of these sham protests against the killing of George Floyd and something called racism have spread to the UK, including Bristol where a statue was torn down. They have also spread to Australia.
Yemini turned up at a demonstration in Melbourne and asked protesters if they had heard of Justine Damond. If like the people he asked you have never heard of her, this unfortunate forty year old exemplifies American diversity at its finest: a white Australian woman shot dead in Minnesota by a male Somali police officer, an incident that led to the resignation of its first female Native American police chief, who for good measure is a lesbian.
Unlike George Floyd, Justine wasn’t under arrest, rather she had phoned the police to report what she thought was a crime, and when two police officers turned up in their car, one of them shot her. This was in July 2017; the case made headlines around the world, but nothing like the mega-headlines the shooting of a black woman in similar circumstances might attract.
Listen to some of the protesters in this video. Yemini set out to expose hypocrisy but he was also exposing ignorance. Sadly, this is nothing new; many protesters who attend similar events have only the faintest idea of the issues they are siding with or against. One suspects most of the Extinction Rebellion protesters are cut from the same cloth, certainly Greta Thunberg is.
Mohammed Noor, the trigger happy cop who killed Justine, was given a twelve and a half year sentence for third degree murder. Hopefully, if he is convicted, the police officer who knelt on George Floyd’s neck will receive not a day less.

It seems that the police in the US have killed loads of people without justification. Their habit of breaking down doors and terrorising everyone inside, maybe killing someone and then finding they’re at the wrong house is quite common. And the officers involved are usually let off by the corrupt justice system. However, we don’t read about it in the papers perhaps because ‘police kill white man’ is so common as not to be news.
I wish I could disagree. Some of these case are horrifying: Daniel Shaver and Dillon Taylor stand out, as of course does Walter Scott.
Exactly! I complained to a Sgt that a uniformed cop was screaming at my 8yr old son. Next day 6 cops came to my house and banged down my door. Two broke my ribs while warning me that nobody complains about cops. I am Irish and look it. So not racist thing. I asked reporter to write about it and she said it is not news because it it is too common an occurrence. This was in SD bit could have been anywhere.

It appears that Antifa wasn’t rioting for idealistic purposes. They were being paid $15/hour to riot. It appears that George Soros forgot to pay his employees and now some of them are on strike!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. 👇🏽 👇🏽
To All Black People Residing in the US:
You had better wake the fcuk up out of your collective Democratic Party stupor because some serious shit is going down in your name — and you will be the main patsies in this obvious attempt to create a race war designed to distract you & the snowflake sheep from the unelected ZOG bankster Deep State.
Very true the majority of leftists are deluded imbeciles!😜
As I see it, the problem isn’t so much police brutality or racism…the seed of the problem is the white race’s ingrained believe of superiority over others…and from here the seed grows.
Correction. It was a Somali immigrant who killed the Australian woman. Part of contention in USA was that his culture against women prejudice was the impetus for his killing her. And I believe that Muslim vs woman. So don’t blame American for that one.
Adding to that there was a big push to hire Somalis to the MN PD so politically they didn’t want to punish him. Culture clash. Aside from that the issue with police in USA is their unwillingness to weed out the criminals who wear a badge. Blue vs citizens. Not race v other race.
