I 100% support them protesting no question.
It would be nice to discuss black on black killings while we are at it. That topic seems to be non existent in these circles.

So rather than supporting our Black student-athletes, this Board has decided to
- use Wayde Sims death as a talking point to divert the issue
- talk about Black on Black crime to divert the issue
- claim that you will not support LSU anymore because they have said “Black Lives Matter”. Not that they are “joining the BLM organization”.
Not surprised at all that admins will let this ignorant bs continue. If our African-American athletes left LSU after seeing the ridiculous arse responses on here and every team’s social media page, then what? You are allowed to your opinion, but then to purposely ignore the point, just because you don’t like it, is so damn pathetic. Y’all gotta grow up. I guarantee if Ja’Marr Chase or Justin Jefferson was in your face telling you Black Lives Matter and telling you why they feel that they need to say it, you would spout this bullshite you are saying on this message board.

The issue is Black Lives Matter
That's what's in the twitter post in OP.
Thus that is the topic we are discussing. Black on black killings is not a part of BLM?

Not sure anyone could fault you for thinking this.

How do you know it’s not? Once again, throwing out bs to divert the conversation from the primary issue being discussed is the problem.

Their actions. The timing of them doing anything. Their message. Pick one.

Speaking of BS, would you like to address the statistics of police violence by race and how they don't really jive with the narrative of it only targeting black people?

#BlackLivesMatter was founded in 2013 in response to the acquittal of Trayvon Martin’s murderer. Black Lives Matter Foundation, Inc is a global organization in the US, UK, and Canada, whose mission is to eradicate white supremacy and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities by the state and vigilantes. LINK
Y’all just don’t want to understand at this point and it’s pathetic but far from surprising.

Name any fricking person locally or nationally. Athlete, businessman, celebrity etc that has brought up black on black killings.
Name one.
It’s a taboo topic almost and gets completely pushed to the side. Yes there are issues that need to be fixed in criminal justice but black on black killings is a HUGE issue as well.

Which is fricking hilarious if you don't have an agenda.
How do you feel about this graphic?

Would love to because you are going to say that more White people are killed by Police, correct.
However, Blacks only make up 13% of the population and more UNARMED BLACKS are killed by Police, which is why we are having this conversation.

People shouldn't have to support things just because they play for the team they like. What a stupid position to take.

Whites get killed more per capita. Try again.

You'd think he'd apply that same logic to Will Wade

On the contrary. Whenever it is mentioned that every 32 minutes a black person is killed by a black person, the response from the pro-BLM'ers is, "this isn't the time for THAT conversation". It absolutely is. If the Black lives really matter, then you want to save the most black lives you can. In 2019, 14 black people were killed by police officers. 8 of those were a result of police defending themselves with corroborating evidence. 1 is still pending, the other 3, the cops are being prosecuted. Now let's take, just this past weekend, 92 fricking people were shot in Chicago alone, and 27 were killed. In ONE WEEKEND. If you refuse to have the black on black crime "conversation" right now, then you should change your movement from "black lives matter" to, "sometimes black lives matter, depending on the situation" but that hashtag is too long.

That’s absolutely false, but there is no reasoning with you. Just sit in your ignorance buddy. God bless.
