Which high profile black shooting spun off this BLM movement?

People will probably say they all led to it, but after which one incident did this first get off the ground?

Mike Brown, Ferguson I'd think.

Either Trayvon or Brown. But after Mike Brown is when it really started heating up.

The Trayvon one was the first story the media really covered but BLM took off in Ferguson.

So two cases where the person getting shot was found to be in the wrong, and the person doing the shooting was found to be justified in doing so? And we still have assholes on this very board defending the "symbolic significance" behind BLM?

I really have overdosed on crazy pills.

If you really want to be historical, the new era began with Rodney King, b/c of one word: videotape.

FWIW, this stuff of the black masses siding with criminals isn't the new. In the Godfather novel the character of Al Neri is a cop who is thrown off the force for "brutality" after he is seen beating and arresting a vicious black thug who'd been terrorizing the ghetto. Even though he was taking care of a violent thug, the ghetto sided against him and with the TPOS.

Corrent, and they still chant "hands up; don't shoot" even though that has been proven to be a lie.
