But there is no way in hell the BLM will unite with ISIS. That is just crazy.
I'm somewhat sympatheic to BLM myself. I think most among them are generally peaceful protesters.
The people I DO fear are the ones that come to the surface when all hell breaks loose after a disappointing verdict or a police killing. There are protesters and then there are unruly youth and criminals who just want to tear shit up and beat the hell out of people. I think the ideology of ISIS could appeal to these types of young folks. Without strong leadership in the black community, there's a void to be filled in the lives of the youth. Young people are very susceptible to shocking and anti-social propaganda.
