re: "Black lives matter" sign

As in almost every discussion on race, almost everyone has a point that is somewhat true. "Blacklivescount" deals with the mistreatment of blacks by the criminal justice system. Anyone who thinks this does not happen is wearing blinders. Yet, the other posters also make a point: many black activists ignore the epidemic of black on black murder while hyping up police shootings (the Shreveport Sun, Shreveport's black oriented paper, made this point when the Shreveport Times was hyping the Marquis Hudspeth shooting).

It is sad that there is truth to both statements.
