But honestly, what's wrong with people wanting the shite that they're going through to stop?


nothing at all.

Now tell me how barging into libraries and cussing at people and calling them racists is going to accomplish that?

Im not for or against the movement, but I understand why it exists.


It exists because a black dude got shot trying to take away a police officers gun. Not because of systematic racism in colleges dude.

That kind of gets lost when the movement isn't doing shite to try to stop young black guys from killing each other at an alarming rate.


Yes there are people who are fighting against this, it just isnt shown on tv because that isnt good for their ratings. This leads to people like you having no idea what they are talking about.

I have no idea? I live in the middle of a city that is plagued by the shite. I work in the penal system every day. I see what's going on with my own two eyes. There is a serious lack of regard for black lives by other black kids in the city of New Orleans. Where's the outrage? Instead we have these Tulane fricks sending their list of demands and saying how they feel like they're treated unfairly/unjustly on one of the most liberal campuses in the fricking country. If anything, this whole "movement" is doing way more harm than good and probably creating new racists.

If this is the goal of the BLM movement, they are doing an incredible job

I'd call it fascism but not terrorism.

Remove the idea that terrorism is a Jihadi cutting someone head off. It comes in many forms

I suppose that's a fair point, but I don't think that "terrorism" is the best word to use here, if only because most people have a narrower understanding of the meaning of the word than you and I have.

Well YEAH!!! It's called white privilege. You white folk have the right to STFU and listen to Strongsafety and his ilk's point of view.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In its broadest sense, terrorism is any act designed to cause terror.[1] In a narrower sense, terrorism can be understood to feature a political objective. The word terrorism is politically loaded and emotionally charged.

Emphasis and underlining mine.

The very meaning of the word terrorism applies when you're doing shite like sending in a list of demands and running in libraries and threatening people:

noun - ter·ror·ism \'ter-?r-?i-z?m\:
the use of violent acts to frighten the people in an area as a way of trying to achieve a political goal

So the fricking Ferguson riots weren't violent? Those were done under the #BLM movement. The people running around at Dartmouth were making threats and pushing people.
