Are you in that organization, International Association of Scholars? Anyway, it doesn't matter and you don't need to answer. That may be personal.
But on BLM, Michael Medved spoke about them today. That despite all; according to Medved, they do have widespread support. Yes, some of their members have done or have inspired others to do some very bad things. Anyway, that's what Medved was saying. Still, there is little way to get by that "pigs in a blanket" chant. Some pretty horrible stuff. No one was really debating him on the topic. It is what he said.
Still, surely, BLM could fall into the SPLC's categorization as a hate group.
