Conservative media group PragerU released an already-viral short documentary on Wednesday digging into the repercussions of policies and attitudes promoted by far-Left activist group Black Lives Matter. Notably, the film, “Their Lives Mattered: The Forgotten Victims of Crime in America,” is presented by a former BLM activist, Xaviaer DuRousseau. In “Their Lives Mattered,” DuRousseau speaks to the families of innocent children who were slain in inner cities, crime experts, and activists to understand the heartbreaking cost of BLM-supported policies. “I was a Black Lives Matter activist,” DuRousseau says in the opening of the film, as shown in the teaser clip, below. “I was initially drawn to BLM because the media convinced me that thousands of black people were being shot and killed by racist white police officers.” “The ‘fiery but mostly peaceful’ protests made me rethink my perspective,” DuRousseau continues, referring to a CNN description of a destructive BLM protest. “It didn’t make sense to me why black rioters would loot and destroy their own communities in the name of racial justice, and why the media only cared about the loss of black life when the perpetrator was white.” MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28 Happy Gregg, a woman who lost her four-year-old son MJ to apparent gang violence in Chicago, told DuRousseau that not a single person has been prosecuted for the killing. “When my son was murdered, I thought there would be outrage, and that justice was going to be swift,” Gregg said. “But I realized, there’s no outrage; I’m gonna have to be that outrage, I’m gonna have to be that voice for my baby.” “No one even knows that a four-year-old was murdered, because there’s a lot of people murdered. Like, ‘get in line’ is almost the tone of it, here,” the mother said. “Through that, I realized that a lot of children had been murdered. And I had no idea.” The same weekend MJ was killed, seven other children were also killed in Chicago. There was no city-wide, let alone nationwide, protest, like the media helped drum up for the death of George Floyd. DuRousseau also spoke to a man named Nathan Wallace, who lost his seven-year-old daughter Natalia to gang violence in Chicago. One man speaking alongside Wallace following the crime, posed, “If black lives don’t matter to us, how the hell is it supposed to matter to anybody else?” Others in the documentary, including Manhattan Institute senior fellow Rafael Mangual and STAND founder Bishop E.W. Jackson, help to shed light on crime statistics often ignored in the media and the policies and activism behind increased crime. WATCH: ? WATCH NOW ?

Thrifting has become more popular than ever — and we understand why. Finding something you love does take time and quite a bit of patience, of course. But in the end, it’s worth it for that one special item you simply must get! That said, it’s safe to say that some of us are particularly lucky when it comes to our thrift store finds. Megan Uccello is one of those people. Megan helps run The Woven Home, a business that reimagines vintage furniture and decor. So, it’s no surprise that she’s an experienced thrifter. Still, even she was shocked by the painting she discovered recently at a local thrift store. Once she was able to take a good look at the art, it was clear that it wasn’t just any painting… see for yourself in the video below! @thewovenhome Never gonna quit after this #art #vintage #thrifted #thrift #bucketlist ♬ afilmbykirk – ᶻ ? ? .ᐟ “I cannot believe that I am now the proud owner of this beautiful Syd Solomon piece of art from 1971,” Megan shares in a social media post. “This is my top Goodwill find yet and I cannot wait to see how I can style it!” Syd Solomon Painting Finds Its Way to a Thrift Store, Much to the Delight of the Woman Who Discovers It If you’re unaware, Syd Solomon was an American abstract painter. Although he wasn’t a household name, he did have a great impact on the world of art. In fact, it’s said that he was quick to adopt the then newly-developed medium of acrylic paint. He was born in 1917 and passed away in 2004. It goes to show that you never know what treasures you’ll find at a thrift store. While we can’t all find something of rare or great value, like a bracelet that’s worth $25K, you just might be surprised by what catches your eye.

Dogs aren’t usually known for being subtle, but this cattle dog’s in-your-face approach to playtime is next level! A pet parent on social media caught a hilarious video of her energetic pooch annoying his sister with a noisy squeaky toy. Mary Ann Redmond was relaxing on the couch with her border collie, Indi, when Moses the cattle dog decided he needed to be the center of attention. Even though the other pooch tried to ignore him, this little guy wouldn’t take no for an answer! Indi did not look amused as her brother made his incessant squeaking noises, staring at her and wagging his tail the entire time. Although Mary Ann didn’t show her face in the video, she didn’t sound particularly impressed by the cattle dog’s antics, either. @maryannsmenagerie The sibling struggle is real! Just trying to chill. #heeler #moses #squeakmonster #dog #love #animals #funnyanimals #somethingwrongwiththatdog #heelermix #puppydogs ## ♬ original sound – Mary Ann Redmond “Yeah, that’s not annoying,” said the woman, sarcastically. “How many minutes have you been doing that, Moses?” At one point, Mom really thought that the cattle dog was losing steam. However, this turned out to be nothing more than wishful thinking. “Oh, I thought you were done,” she said. “No, you’re just getting started? Ok, just checking.” Meanwhile, Indi refused to give her brother the satisfaction of a response. She remained completely still, occasionally glancing over to her mom as if to say, “Can you believe this guy?” Everyone loves these hilarious canine siblings! Screengrab from TikTok This hysterical video has received over two million views! Some commenters thought that the insistent cattle dog was too funny, while others praised the border collie for her composure. “He’s trying so hard to get a reaction and the other one is trying so hard not to give one,” wrote one user. Another added, “HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE IS DOING AND HE’S NOT STOPPING ANYTIME SOON EITHER!!!” It’s a good thing this cattle dog is cute! You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.

If you’ve ever seen a wood chipper in action, then you know how incredibly powerful they are. It can be fun to admire the capabilities of this kind of machinery.

Find out for yourself in the viral video below! (Also, just to make sure it’s clear, a mannequin is used in this demonstration, not a real person). View this post on Instagram A post shared by Two Tree Guys Podcast (@2treeguys) As the video shows, anything that get caught in a wood chipper will be sucked into the machine in literal seconds. To better understand the speed, some pull in branches at 20 inches per second. That’s why it’s oh-so important to wear the proper clothing and to keep your hair out of the way. In this video, however, a rope is used to demonstrate the wood chipper’s power. Chilling Demonstration Perfectly Shows Why It’s So Important to Follow Safety Protocols When Around a Wood Chipper While many of us will never get near a wood chipper, you never know when this kind of knowledge will come in handy. That said, it’s safe to say many folks will now go out of their way to never be within eyesight of one of these powerful machines. “Uhhh, I think I’m gonna stay far far away from any wood chipper,” someone in the comments shares, “Wow.” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!

'Very easy to say'

A photograph was released that showed the presence of a ghostly being seen at a police checkpoint in the province of Chubut, Argentina.The thing is that a police officer was outside the truck in full control near the Chubut town of Gaiman when a colleague of his saw something strange and decided to take a photo with his cell phone. He said that at that point on the shoulder, no one was arrested at that time.Since the weekend, a nighttime photo has been circulating on the networks. Many believe that a ghost can be seen lurking around the cell phones that had their siren lights on, shining from the deep Patagonian darkness. Among this strong glow, in the image taken with the phone, a somewhat blurred figure can be seen, but very likely human in shape, stationed on the side of the road.The routine operation was carried out on Provincial Route 25, as it does at the beginning of every weekend, in a town that is usually visited by tourists who come from neighboring Puerto Madryn, Trelew, and Rawson, in the middle of the whale, Magellanic penguin and porpoise watching season.There, in the area known as Chacra 183, the agents of the Gaiman Sub-Police Station, who work under the orders of Commissioner Damián Lacanette, had stopped a vehicle and one of them took the obligatory photograph with his cell phone, to document the procedure that was carried out at the entrance to the well-known town of the Welsh settlers.Later, when the police officer shared the photo, some of his comrades noticed something strange illuminated by the headlights of the vehicle being searched.When the image was enlarged, more than one person was convinced that what they saw was nothing other than the ghostly silhouette of a woman or a young woman, wrapped in a grey sheet. One thing everyone agrees on: at first glance, there was no one in that place. Whether it is a light effect or an improbable paranormal phenomenon, of course, is left to the consumer's interpretation.Source: www.cronica.com.ar**********DJINN & CURIOUS MIDDLE EASTERN TALES | LIVE Chat | Q & A | Join Us!
