Tell me again how BLM isn't racist, not to mention funded by Socialist Soros and Islam black leaders (who also want Socialism)

Black Lives Matter activists, social justice warriors and local union officials are working to turn the Black Friday shopping experience on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile into a nightmare.

For the second year in a row the Windy City’s progressive malcontents are ruining everyone’s shopping experience to raise awareness about their own issues, which include police shootings of black criminals, racism and economic inequality, Crain’s Chicago Business reports.blackfridayprotest

Last year, protesters managed to cut Black Friday sales on the Magnificent Mile to half of what they normally are to protest the city’s handling of police shooting of Laquan McDonald. This year, they’ll continue the tradition of blocking shoppers from entering stores on the busiest shopping day of the year and are hoping frustrations with the results of the 2016 election will recruit more folks to their cause.

“We’re expecting a bigger turnout this year, though this is not an exact science,” Frank Chapman, a field organizer with the Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, told Crain’s. “The reason we’re looking for a bigger turnout is that Trump is the president-elect and, boy, are people pissed.”

Chicago Police Department’s Special Events Department confirmed that it approved a permit for protesters on Black Friday, but would not disclose who received the approval.

The massive protest is being promoted by the Alliance and Black Lives Matter with participation expected from members of the Chicago Teachers Union, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, as well as area churches and other unions.

Black Lives Matter activist Kimberly Veal told Crain’s the goal is to drive people away from the white owned businesses to minority owned businesses.

“One of the cornerstones about why we’re boycotting on Black Friday is to attempt to redirect people to businesses owned by people of color and women, and explain why it’s important to patronize these businesses,” Veal said.

My Advice. Stay Home This Coming Friday.   This may be happening at
other Malls around the country.  This is not a real protests, these are
paid protesters financed by the likes of George Soros.
Another reason to stay away from the stores this Friday that it may be
dangerous to your safety and the love ones you bring with you.
