re: Richard Sherman keeps it real: If black lives matter they should matter all the time

Holy shite. How dare we hold trained cops to a higher standard than gang memebers.

Again, cops are held to a higher standard than criminals.

"I banged like a fool till I woke up." This line let me know he was full of shite from the jump.

False.
The vast majority of murders in chicago, for example, are blacks killing blacks.
And the vast majority of them never get solved. A recent study showed only a 26% clearance rate.

But when its themselves, and their own delinquent children killing their counterparts, who are they going to blame? No one is going to march and say "we're raising murderers! So we are creating our own problem!"
But when it's a white person, they can position themselves as the victim, and disregard the overwhelming percentage of blacks who get killed by blacks for the few who aren't.

A lot of you are missing the point. I'm black. If I go out and ruthlessly kill another black man and get caught I will at the very least face murder chargers. People feel as if a white guy does it he could easily walk away without even ever going to trial no matter if he was right or not.
OJ Simpson says hello.

Uh no. Most criminals who commit a crime go to jail. Most cops get paid vacation and almost no jail time if they commit a crime. In fact a lot are covered up.

OJ is the exception to the exception of the rules.

I'd like to see the studies on what happens to a black defendant when the jury is black. I know they are out there.

Yeah that first paragraph is crap. Anyone with tremendous power regardless of race could walk away.
It's a class issue not race. Many people can't distinguish the difference

He's an intelligent guy, but I actually started liking him BECAUSE of the Crabtree rant.

The movement is specifically about the disproportion of black lives being taken at the hands of law enforcement. The movement is not about white folks killing black people. Don't make things what they aren't. That being said, Sherman is correct in his assessment.

Its always about cops because the movement is about police brutality being statistically more slanted towards blacks than other people in this country.
Not sure why this is so hard for some to reconcile with.
When a person says save the whales, they aren't saying frick all the dolphins. They also arent saying that they only care about the ones getting killed by Japanese fishermen and frick the ones at SeaWorld.
BLM is targeted specifically at the way law endorsement behaves. Nothing more.

This has nothing to do with society holding cops to a higher standard than they do criminals.
A cop killing an innocent man is worse than a criminal killing an innocent man because a cop's job is to protect and serve the innocent man.

Well, if it's anything like a personal injury case watch out

They commit a shite load of crimes, and most in inner cities are very dangerous, it's understandable that cops are on edge.

I'd like to see stats of cops killed by blacks vs. blacks killed by cops.

I'm assuming the original thread on the King Noble website was anchored?

If anybody has any authority to speak on this it is Sherman. A highly intelligent black man (and one of the smartest players in the NFL) who made it out of a gang ridden neighborhood and made something of himself
