Black on black crime, Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, SJWs, etc. are all irrelevant to a simple condemnation of the idiots who posed at Emmett Till's memorial.
Not when your major talking point is "what about this other, unrelated issue?"
Like a squid squirts ink to obscure its movements, people squirt unrelated issues and whataboutism to obscure the actual issue.
Look, posing with guns at a shot up Emmett Till memorial sign is at best incredibly stupid. It's also definitely possibly racist, and the best defense to racism is general stupidity. Other issues don't change that. It isn't a contest where you can only criticize one thing at a time.

Well, thats what prejudice is. Its not just a thing to call white people that disagree with you.

They way they continue to whine about things you would have thought the act was passed yesterday.
Woof.
Imagine thinking things should be all good after only 2 generations.

the "but what about black on black crime" comments are purely intended for deflection

If they shot a Rest Area sign they still should have been kicked out of school. Horribly irresponsible to fire guns in that manner.

In America, white people expect black people to just get over centuries of being treated as subhuman.
Anywhere else in the world, we’d expect people groups to hate each other, go to war, etc. over similar treatment. And yet, white people in this thread still think they are getting a raw deal because black people are upset when something incredibly disrespectful like this happens.
Meanwhile, the same people rage over statues getting taken down via democratic process, because they view it as a repudiation of their heritage.

I'm honestly pretty baffled about what the people disputing something in here actually dispute.

Well, that's a good life lesson. If you do something really stupid that's easily construed as racist, you have to sleep in the bed you made.

The majority of the people "offended" by those statues weren't offended until they were told they should be

What makes you think black on black crime is remotely similar to the topic at hand?
It wasn't brought up as an evolution of the conversation, it was brought up as a deflection of the act in the OP.

What exactly is similar in black on black crime and 3 white kids posing with guns in front of a shot up Emmett Till memorial sign?
Edit: Slackster beat me to it.

That is an assumption. You can't possibly know the thoughts of anyone other than yourself, therefore, you can't possibly know who has racist thoughts and who doesn't.
Correlation does not equal causation. Yes, every person who's committed a racist act, more than likely, had a racist thought. Not everyone who has had a racist thought, has committed a racist act. Proof? Look at your ancestors. Were they violent people? Hell, Lincoln was very prejudice and he freed the slaves.
Lincoln didn't commit racist acts?? He put his racist thoughts about blacks on paper, that's how we know he was racist. Racist acts don't have to be violent. If I write a racist manifesto or put a swastika on a school, thats a racist act.
