Well that little problem is why I don't give a frick about this movement or these protests. Focus on your own community before trying to frick up everyone elses.

They have a flawed slogan

It makes no sense and the fact that they have to keep trying to clarify it is proof

Just using it as an example, people are still outraged by both these incidents

I think I would enjoy talking to you about this issue further.

I recently had an epiphany regarding whites profiling blacks and blacks also profiling whites.

We are not each other’s enemy and it upsets me to see the issue framed in that way.

t's just ignorance, the problem is people don't like to take accountability. It's always when the white cop kills one of us. But, you never hear anything when a fellow black person kills one of us.
yes, exactly!

NOPE! that's the problem. stop ignoring it. say something about it. challenge your community to stop turning the other cheek, if you are actually black.

speaking of, you might be the first black female to ever post on TD

sorry if you're not female, but bailey is a girl's name

I'm so sick of the burning house in a neighborhood analogy!!! What if none of the houses are on fire, but you start calling the fire department and screaming at the top of your lungs every time your kids set some leaves on fire in your backyard?? No house is on fire, but you're over reacting to something that didn't happen.

Fact is, more whites are killed by cops each year than blacks. Yes, there are more whits than blacks by population, but blacks commit crimes and come into contact with police in in a much greater (and disproportionate) manner. Perhaps that has much to do with it.

Not trying to say what happened to home dude was right, b/c it wasn't, but I'm tried of all this BLM stuff. If black lives truly mattered, they'd be in the streets in the 'hoods every day making changes so there weren't so many black on black crimes and shoots, but that ain't good TV, so they wait for the cop killings so they can stir up all the shite. I guarantee, black on black killings are 1000x cop on black killings.

\But it's not just a name. If it was, then black people wouldn't have any problem with "all lives matter." It's not a name, it's a movement. And as a movement, they have endorsed violent rioting, harm to police officers, harm to white people, looting and many other crimes. That's called terrorism, and YES, I'm against terrorism.

As it is now, they should call it “Black Lives Matter When Killed By Whitey.”

They should call it “All Black Lives Matter.” But then they’d have to protest about the 7,000 plus black on black murders per year.

And ain’t nobody got time fo’dat.

No, from comments here and a hundred other places online, people are clearly triggered by the name - hence the rise of "all lives matter" response.
