Apparently it is . My wife commented on our mixed Niece’s post( I know ‘ dear Facebook’) All lives matter’. Our Niece who is mixed went off on her calling us racist because that is a racist statement and because we support Trump. This young lady and her sisters stayed with us a couple weeks during summers growing up. We went to a lot of their schools events( sports mostly) but to be honest I never really seen her black relatives there to much. My wife is really hurt over this. We are kind of older then most on here and she really didn’t know that saying “ All Lives Matter” was offensive

Ask the guy that USED to do Sacramento Kings games on TV until about a week ago if saying that is racist.

All lives don’t matter until black lives matter
This has been a chant throughout the protests

All Lives Matter is not racist. Ones who shoot this down use it as a silencing tool when they’ve lost an argument.

It’s the same thing as white privilege or only whites can be racist.

It’s not racist but it misses the point.

They really should have called it Black Lives Matter Too

The entire idea misses the mark. All lives matter also means black lives matter.

But this really sent about black lives.

Congrats. You are getting the Drew Brees treatment. Sounds like you have been very good to this girl and after 1 seemingly innocuous statement, she now sees you as a racist. If she keeps it up, tell her to go frick herself. You dont need this bullshite in your lives.

It is when the people say it as a response because they can't push themselves to just say "Black live matter".

Apparently the left makes the rules. As someone who is not on the left everything you say and do is racist.

Tell the kid that you forgive her outburst because she is young and does not yet understand the world.

Apparently,” All” doesn’t encompass blacks?
Ask them,” if all lives don’t matter, what group is excluded?”

No it’s not. But it’s something people troll BLM supporters with and they know it.

I was told by James Hetfield that "nothing else matters."

It’s not racist (by any sane person’s definition) to say All Lives Matter. However, it’s pretty tone deaf and combative to what people mean with Black Lives Matter. I don’t mind the phrase. It’s certainly true that all lives can’t matter until black lives matter too.

It’s all the other bullshite that has been tacked onto the movement that is off the charts batshit crazy.
