Black Lives Matter thread

Also no, don't pull that shit. This is about violence of blacks. Not all minorities. Blacks, in this country, are more violent than any other race. That is due to culture, not their race, but it's still true. We see this in crime stats.

It's a sad state of affairs when the only time they've rioted over black on black crime is when they were stupid and thought it was a white cop that did it, because a black man kill another black man?! CRAZY!

The situation is also out of control because of all this anti-cop rhetoric spewed by this hateful group..blacks now automatically assume another black is a saint if killed by a cop.

The stated mission of Black Lives Matter is to protest the extrajudicial killings of Black people by police and vigilantes and to broaden the conversation around state violence to include all of the ways in which Black people are being deprived of their basic human rights and dignity at the hands of state actors.

Sorry, you did not get the memo.

Why do you think you are some glorified social justice warrior?

But Black people are convicted less than white people in proportion to the crime they commit.

A black criminal has a greater chance of getting away with crime than a white criminal, and no greater chance of being shot. There are simply more incidents of black people being killed when offering no resistance, but that makes out a very, very small percentage of all murders. They have a far greater chance of being killed by their neighbour than the police, and black/hispanic police officers are more likely to kill someone than white officers.

When statistically black people are more likely to commit crime and less likely to be prosecuted or killed, you really have to wonder what they're protesting.

Except, at times they have stated this is just about black lives mattering, not about specific cop killings.

On top of that, one of their leaders has gotten on tv and said black on black crime isn't a huge issue. So sorry if you didn't get that memo. But hey, you've gotten it now, right?

I do not. I actually do not care for Black Lives Matter, the genderqueer movement, or third-wave feminism, et al. The difference is that I disagree with them for ideological reasons, and not for a misunderstanding of what it is they actually stand for.

If they don't protest or at least burn down a city every once in a while..then we wouldn't remember that the black race in the modern day are largely just victims.

No, don't talk about how they commit murder waaaay more often than other races, that shit is for lesser men. This is about the fact black people die at the hands of cops more, and that would be a serious issue if this race had one of the lowest crime rates in the country, but since they have the highest(by leaps and motherf*cking bounds) well, I too wonder what they are complaining over.

White cop shoots black thug who is armed? Racism, let's burn this shit down! Black cop shoots black thug who is armed? Racism, let's burn this shit down. Black thugs kill other black thugs at record rates? Meh, f*ck it..f*ck them piggies fry 'em like bacon!

Congratulations, you answered your own question.

So are you going to believe their stated mission, or what some interpret their slogan to mean?

It is a fact that black people—regardless of whether they are innocent or comply with police orders—die at the hands of cops more, and that is a serious issue. FULL STOP.

There, I fixed it for you.

Right from their website:

"Black Lives Matter is an ideological and political intervention in a world where Black lives are systematically and intentionally targeted for demise. It is an affirmation of Black folks’ contributions to this society, our humanity, and our resilience in the face of deadly oppression."

So right here, there is nothing specifically about cops or law enforcement. First lets break this bullshit down: these people are not systematically hunted down like this shit says. They are not intentionally targeted for demise. Most cops do not wake up on a Friday saying "I will have a shitty weekend if I don't kills me a black!".

If anyone is out there specifically targeting blacks for demise it is..black thugs, black gang bangers, whatever you want to call them.

But wait, the bullshit doesn't stop, because in the "who we are section" there are several tabs at the bottom that describe what else they are about. One is "diversity" lol, which is a joke.

Another part is that they are committed to practicing empathy. Holy shit, is this entire website satire?

Oh shit I'm almost afraid to highlight the "Black Families" tab, since we know those are a mess and yet protesting police violence won't get fathers in the homes.

Oh here, we have "queer affirming". Holy shit this IS satire lol, it has to be. Wait, okay so next we have: transgender affirming as well, not sure what the f*ck that has to do with police brutality, but I'm sure you'll explain it to me.

Holy shit one tab says "Loving Engagement" and I quote:

"We are committed to embodying and practicing justice,, liberation, and peace in our engagements with one another."

That is the most hilarious thing of all lol.

Christ almighty, I said they said black on black crime wasn't a big issue, not that it wasn't THEIR issue. Even if you falsely believe all they care about is police brutality, surely you can acknowledge the difference between saying something isn't a big issue and merely saying something isn't *your* issue.

I want to thank you Adam, I never actually checked out their site, and now I know they are even more full of shit then I previously thought. Kudos 👆

From another part of their website:

"Black Lives Matter is a chapter-based national organization working for the validity of Black life."

During the course of those riots they've killed more people than the police ever did.

Not only that but the cost of the damages alone should impact their communities far more than the meagre loss of lives...

I mean I just posted some pretty convincing proof that their movement isn't just about the shit cops do to blacks. This is about, and I quote, the "validity of black life".

So perhaps maybe it wouldn't hurt to take a look at the people who do the most..nullifying of black lives. Perhaps it wouldn't hurt to take a look at the people that do more to harm the validity of life than the cops.

Just look at the above thing, where Adam focused on how blacks more often die unarmed at the hands of cops. So, do we want to look into why? Is this not important? Or are we just assuming it's racism? Are we pretending like the higher crime rate among blacks doesn't perhaps make cops more jumpy around them at times? And yet, this is a double sided sword but this anti cop shit in the media can also make a cop LESS likely to go for a kill even when it could cost them their own life.

So cops are expected to be able to successfully balance this shit out..AND they are also supposed to be the masters of the non-lethal take down, trained psychologists who know exactly how to handle the mentally ill, etc. Remember when being a cop was just about enforcing the law? Now they need to be part psychiatrist, part zen master, part karate kid.

I mean their website is quite clear this isn't just about cops, this is about overall just improving the quality of "black" life, etc.

So the group that blocks interstates and shuts down airports is telling us they are about empathy and "loving" engagements.

I can't even comprehend how chanting "pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon" shows empathy to anyone.

They toss around the word "love" a lot, that they are just acting with love.

My favorite is the "unapologetically black" part. Which we know if someone said they were unapologetically white they would be called a skinhead or some shit.

They also say they are committed to stopping the patriarchal practice of mothers working "double shifts" that have to mother in private while doing justice work.

Ah yes the pesky "patriarchy" of this country.

Its like their kangs are too stupid to even form arguments.

There are decent black people, sure. But the movements funded by jews dont really do them any favours. Malcolm X said to be aware of the jewish menace. We should have lostened.

So just going back to this, we have one of the leaders of BLM Toronto posting messages saying "Allah give me strength not to cuss and kill these men and white folks here today". Ah yes, so misandry AND racism all in the same sentence. Oh she also says white skin is "sub human".

So peaceful, so full of empathy, so loving. It's just nice to see such an oppressed people maintain an air of dignity.

Oh btw she also said the skin of blacks absorbs cosmic energy. This entire movement is pure entertainment. I actually don't ever want them to stop. The best part is they think they are accomplishing something, but they don't know is that all they are accomplishing is entertaining others.
