BLM completely missed the boat with how they approached this issue. If they had pushed the fact police are more and more becoming revenue generators that trample on civil rights instead of making it a race thing we'd all be better off.

I agree. It’s an issue for everyone but some of them were loudly sprinkling in anti-white crap and it turned many people off. Like, the fact that openly using slurs against whites (they even made up some new ones like mayo jar and powder people lol) was accepted within the movement, along with destroying businesses of people who had nothing to do with it caused more problems than it helped.

But since they are a communist terrorist organization, they are more interested in destabilizing the country.

BLM missed the boat because there was no boat, they were protesting the shooting of the likes of Jacob Blake, who raped a girl and tried to stab a cop. Or Rashard Brooks who passed out drunk in a drive thru, got free of the handcuffs and tried to stab a cop. Or Breonna Taylor standing in the hallway as the cops returned fire after her boyfriend shooting a cop. Or Stephon Clark who broke into several cars, ran from cops, then pointed a cellphone at them in a shooters stance. And they created this narrative that hundreds of innocent black men were getting shot daily, when really it’s been going down every year for the last 20, and is only about 10-20 deaths a year. Most of whom were asking for it.

They rioted over these idiots. And we will never have racial harmony again because of it. That’s why BLM missed the boat. It didn’t exist. There was never any boat.

Your BLM argument is BS. Cops in Lincoln parish arrest more whiteys for DUI than they do in EBR (pop in EBR is 10x.)

Christ, have you spent any time in LA?

Who passes laws police are supposed to enforce? Why did cops give two sh1ts about loosie cigs that didn't collect tax revenue? Cops didn't care.

So who is to blame for asking cops to arrest Garner because they missed out on taxes? The legislature. From FedGov on down, the legislature makes laws. It's not hard.
