    well conservatives are called the "right" for a reason.

    Maybe we should start calling the liberals "the wrong"

      Ecclesiastes 10:1-3New International Version (NIV)

      10 As dead flies give perfume a bad smell,
      so a little folly outweighs wisdom and honor.
      2 The heart of the wise inclines to the right,
      but the heart of the fool to the left.

      3 Even as fools walk along the road,
      they lack sense
      and show everyone how stupid they are.

          We don't?
          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            I'll meet you half-way and agree that Sparko's opinion is simple. But I have trouble accepting as completely true and just any summation of a political issue that refuses to acknowledge any legitimate claim or grievance, no matter how small, by the other party.

            BLM itself is left-leaning, so we can look to their own arguments and principles for a left-leaning interpretation: http://blacklivesmatter.com/guiding-principles/
            Don't call it a comeback. It's a riposte.

              I think it's far more telling to look at their actions instead of their words.

                  But they do. It's a fact shown by the actions of the BLM members and followers in the public square, as shown on the news. They are not acting "in good faith"

                    The entire movement springs from the "hands up" type of lie that even the media bought into. "he was shot in the back like a dog in the street" Lies.

                      exactly. their actions don't show them merely wanting police to be honest and do their job. It shows they hate the police and want to destroy law and order.

                        How many BLM protests and demonstrations have there been across America in the past year? How many of these have led to violence? What proportion of the people who participated in these protests engaged in violence?

                        For the sarcastically impaired the following is said in jest

                        Thanks for the thoughtful reply. It's good to know that when I put time and effort into a post, other posters will take the time to read and understand what I'm trying to communicate, and will then thoughtfully engage with the points I've raised instead of ignoring them entirely and repeating the same tired argument over and over.

                        Don't call it a comeback. It's a riposte.
