To be fair. The most obvious takeaway is that Lemon is fricking seriously not bright.

But, what exactly IS BLM's mission then?

They haven't exactly limited anything with these protests. Hell I've been seeing the black trans groups using BLM to advance themselves too, but surely you've been rallying against that right?

That would invalidate their victim card.

#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. By combating and countering acts of violence, creating space for Black imagination and innovation, and centering Black joy, we are winning immediate improvements in our lives.

That just isn't true. Nothing more than playing the victim and taking zero responsibility for any actions. Sometimes it isn't anyone else's fault.

Could do more winning and improving by taking more responsibility for actions that are done and not done.

Many have done it, so it is very feasible.

In fact, I would bet money if you fixed the 7000 plus black on black murders a year that the 12 white cop shooting unarmed black men would stop almost completely.

And this is why the whole BLM “movement” is pure horse shite. Being this worked up over cops killing blacks while thousands of blacks kill each other is like being worked up over the dripping faucet in the kitchen while your house is engulfed in flames.

Anti semitism in favor of pro palestine
Defunding the police
Reparations for all blacks
Free college
Destruction of nuclear family

The founder you mentioned is also a self professed Marxist.

Literally all of that is on their website, demands via twitter and videos.

i think the part of this that gets me is Lemon is too stupid or disingenuous to realize that police brutality on blacks is a derivative of black crime rates

if there wasnt so much black driven crime there wouldnt be as much police and blacks interactions which should then limit and isolate the bad cops because they would stick out more

This is the same guy that went on TV even after Jussie Smollet was proven a racist lying piece of dogshit and still shoved the narrative that Smollet was some kind of hero down people’s throats. He has absolutely no credibility whatsoever. I believe he even won worst journalist of the year in 2016. This guy tries to be the voice of all blacks on tv yet he’s led a more sheltered life than the vast majority of people in the country. If you’d like to see something funny watch Sheriff David Clarke own his arse on his own TV show. Ben Shapiro did the same.

BLM may have started to raise awareness of police brutality against blacks, but they've expanded into numerous additional "markets" since then. Don only need look at their website. This defeats Don's argument that they have a very specific mission and gives credibility to the scores of people wondering why, with all that mission creep, they're avoiding the elephant in the room.

So Donavan's analogy is basically like saying cancer matters but only brain cancer?

So BLM admits its founding was based on a lie.

Trayvon wasn't murdered.
