  • Do Black Lives Matter? Really?

    To Blacks themselves?

    Atlanta mayor calls for citizens to stop 'shooting each other' after murder of 8-year-old near BLM protest site
    Enough is enough. We have talked about this movement that's happening across America and this moment in time when we have the ears and the interests of people across this country and across this globe who are saying they want to see change. But the difference in this moment in time with the civil rights movement -- in the civil rights movement, there was a defined, common enemy. We're fighting the enemy within when we are shooting each other up on our streets."

    She continued: "."

    "It has to stop," Bottoms added, according to FOX 5 Atlanta. "You can't blame this on police officers. It's about people who shot a baby in a car. We're doing each other more harm than any officer on this force."

      If black lives really mattered then blacks would be outraged over the fact that a black person is far more likely to be killed by another black person than by a white police officer.

        What an idiotic thread. Black Lives Matter is about racial injustice and police violence.

        Anyone who fails to recognize this by now is being intentionally hateful.

          I think blacks themselves think black lives matter. Not the political movement, the reality. The sane ones think all lives matter.

          BLM is just another leftist group. They support having the village raise their babies, rather than an actual family, with a father for instance. That simply will not lead to black on black murder going down. Just one insanity of the BLM, there are many more as I'm sure you know.

            Yet the killing of black men by police is a small small fraction of the deaths. The vast majority is black on black. It is obvious that many blacks don't think black lives matter - they are killing each other by the truck load.

            Anyone who fails to recognize this by now is being intentionally hateful.
            I have no idea what you mean by police violence. Twice as many whites are killed by police a year as blacks.

                A heart breaking story:

                Atlanta Georgia has erupted into a lawless society as a willfully complicit Atlanta Mayor, Keisha Lance Bottoms, attempts to avoid her role in the murder of an 8-year-old child as violent Black Lives Matter protestors run amok in the city.

                On Saturday night about 9:30, Charmaine Turner and her daughter were driving with a friend when they attempted to turn into a store near a group of armed Black Lives Matter protestors. Two of the BLM activists opened fire on their vehicle for not complying with their unlawful roadblock, and 8-year-old Secoriea Turner was shot. She died in her mothers arms as they attempted to escape the area and get to a hospital.

                Does her life not matter?

                  I guess blacks shooting blacks doesn't matter then? That's just fine?

                    You know what would help stem the tide of violence like this? More police.

                      Like they did in Camden NJ...

                        Maybe they're deader if killed by a white police officer?
                        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                          When you call something idiotic, it appears to have value.

                          Black Lives Matter is about racial injustice and police violence.
                          No, it's a bunch of Marxists who have hijacked the civil rights movement for their own purposes.

                          Anyone who fails to recognize this by now is being intentionally hateful.
                          Says a guy who pretty much spews forth hate 24/7/365.

                              This just shows the disconnect from reality you and EvoUK are on the subject. Btw, Keisha Lance Bottoms, who also called out the absurd hypocrisy, is black and she's one of Biden's VP candidates.
