re: Are you triggered when some says All Lives Matter?

There’s no better way to demonstrate how little you know about anyone other than yourself.

It’s ignorance on full display.

If these movements would drop the race angle and focus solely on police brutality, something productive would actually happen.

Yeah; but Kilroy wouldn’t have anything to whine about all day on the OT.

Correct. From an atheist, naturalistic, materialist perspective, NO lives matter.

None of it matters. Its just a way to manipulate and gain power over another group of people. Only we can say these words, you aren't allowed to say this or act like this, or go here because you don't understand our culture because it is ours. Oh, and they are mad that 400 years ago, their ancestors were taken from their homeland to live a life of servatude. They were freed. They were later given all the rights they had truly deserved in 1968 with Civil Rights Action. Then the same group turn around and says they are tired of being ignored and treated like garbage. We don't care about them. Accuse us of go around hunting them out of fear. Make up incredibly wild tales of how white people should be ashamed of their heritage, privilege, and who they are.

Sorry, I am not apologizing. I treat everyone with the dignity and respect they deserve. No one alive ever owned slaves. No one believes in that and it is universally considered grotesque and a terrible stain on the history of our country. That said, its in the past. No one alive is responsible for what took place back then.

Realize this - consider your great fortune to live in a free capitalistic society where you can chase the American Dream and be whatever you want to be in life - if you ware willing to work and sacrifice for it.

One more thing - What other countries offer minorities a better opportunity than the United States to succeed or make a comfortable living and way of life?

Point is, its pretty freaking good to be an American. Issues need to be discussed and worked out with SOME SENSIBLE/RESPONSIBLE reforms. But this narrative of the original sin of our country means we need to scrap it all and start over - bullshite. No way. Our way of life is in jeopardy.

That is incredibly well-said.
