Just want to say Rest In Peace to all the officers who were killed this week. What's happening in this country is completely unforgivable. These cops were brothers, fathers, sons, nephews, husbands, and they were murdered for no purpose whatsoever.

In the times were activism actually meant something, a wise man said these words:

 

 

Not today, were activism is just a tool for people to spew hate and disparity, while feeling justified about it, because in their twisted mentality they think they are supporting the downtrodden.

First off I'm not sure if you can call a killing of 5 people a massacre. uhm. Not sure, I think you want a dramatic title, but whatever suits you I guess.

 

Using MLK to put down todays black activism is the cheapest thing ever. I'm so tired of it, I don't think he'd agree with you at all, and the only quotes that gets praised are his white-friendly ones. You never hear people repeat that a riot is the language of the unheard, or that one cannot condemn black riots without at the same time condemning the system that caused them.

 

Does this shooting reflect BLM tactics or philosophy at all? I don't see demonstrations firsthand as I live far away, but I know they're no murderers. Everything I've read about this says the shooter was not even a protestor. Black guy wanting to kill white cops is not necessarily affiliated with the movement.. even officials say it was a lone wolf, and I've even heard, though only through one source, that the police were there to protect the protestors. It's just unfair how white people are allowed to be lone wolves all the time, but no black or muslim person. This is an tragic incident, but not a recurring pattern of "what is happening in this country".

 

I'm not sure you mean this to be a thread to simply mourn the dead, but you have already made it political, thus I am justified in butting in like this. You are purposely dirtying a very important movement. BLM is an organization with 3 official founders, a logo, a website, so it's not just black people who don't like whites/are upset with police brutality.

Yeahhhh, because MLK, a man that wished peaceful integration, would totally not be upset by a separatist group that incites and celebrates violence against the police and treats whites with the regressive "if you're not with us, you're against us" mentality.

I don't fall for your claims for a single second. You're being a hypocrite. "oohhh, a black man shot cops, he is a lone wolf" but when cops shoot black people, it's clearly an attack against their race, it's the racist police. Despite the overwhelming cause of deaths between black people is caused by none other then their fellow blacks:

Were is BLM to protest against crime and street violence? Why is it that black lives only seem to matter when a white kills a black, while all the others fall in obscurity?

 

And you don't know **** about riots. I live in Brazil. A couple of years ago people protested and rioted on the streets because of all the troubles that plague our country. And all those thugs managed to achieve was to caused a lot of property damage to innocent store owners while the establishment completely ignored them and no real change came to be. BLM is no different, it's a fraud and a hate group masquerading as activism.

Okay, you have just earned the right to be blocked. I'm done with reading your nonsense which has been highlighted in bold. You can whine about political correctness to people who actually give a damn about it. I, for one, and sick and tired of whites being labeled as the bad guys, even when they're the victims, which 95% of the time we are. Blacks kill more blacks a year than any other "race", and "police brutality" only happens because blacks are always acting like thugs. I'm not referring to all blacks, but MLK would be, at best, ashamed of the way blacks are acting now. They scream for freedom, but they keeps supporting the political party that had them enslaved to begin with. They are still slaves, and unless they open their eyes and actually get a decent education, they will continue to be slaves. Their freedom is an illusion. They're still puppets to the Democratic party.

 

It's amazing to me how blind and illogical people are these days. 

[luffyq1]

BLM only becomes relevant when it's a black person being killed by a white officer. Statistically, there's more black-on-black crime than blacks getting murdered by police officers. I hate the KKK, Black Panthers, and now I'm beginning to hate BLM. 

 

As a black man, it disgusts me to see this movement being front and center when it relates to white cops killing blacks only. If the movement actually touched on the real issue at hand for us black folks, then maybe BLM might have my support. But I don't see that ever happening.
