Voddie Baucham: I can't support Black Lives Matter "because I love black people"

"And what worries me is that there are so many Christians who are not taking that stand. We have to separate this movement from the issues. I know that [Black Lives Matter] is a phrase that is part of an organization. It is a trademark phrase. And it's a phrase designed to use Black people."

Dean of Theology at African Christian University Voddie Baucham denounced the Black Lives Matter movement, saying people, and Christians especially, need to separate the issues from the movement.

The Media is Lying About the ‘Second Wave’

Ron Paul

"Billions of appropriated Federal dollars are being funneled to facilities based on the number of “Covid cases” they can produce. As I’ve always said, if you subsidize something you get more of it. And that’s why we are getting more Covid cases."

My local dps school is only a few miles from Columbine High. Yet #DPS is banning armed security. Will this makes students safer?

From the actual board resolution : " ensuring that we do not replace school resource officers with or staff our schools with the consistent presence of security armed with guns or any other law enforcement personnel."

Systemic racism is defined therein as black and Hispanic students being ticketed or arrested.

Opinion: A humble request for those of us who believe that black lives matter

If you asked me to pinpoint the greatest problem facing America today, my all-encompassing answer to that would unequivocally be our people's inability and unwillingness to think. For whatever reason, and there are many, we no longer appear capable of thinking beneath the surface of any issue. Instead, we rage with emotion, hurling accusations and launching Twitter bombs. And it's killing us.
