Black Lives Matter being equated with Black Lives Matter. What a fricking crazy idea
It takes zero brain power to separate the two. But if anyone would struggle with it, it would be you.

It's takes even less brain power to equate them, since they are the same fricking thing.
But if anyone would be a arrogant prick while being totally wrong just to argue, it would be you.

spare me your virtue signaling. The people shouting black lives matter and attending organized rallies and protests aren't just doing so to acknowledge that their lives matter and simply promoting a slogan. They want political change, something you seemingly can't grasp. If it was as simple as saying they matter, no one would have a problem with it, because the vast majority of people already believe they do. You honestly might be the most pretentious person on this board.

This auto response when anyone supports BLM is pretty hilarious. Some of you need to deal with the fact there there are people and institutions out there that actually like black people and other people of color.
“Virtue signaling”
The irony of complaining about virtue signaling in a message board post, thereby signaling one’s virtues.

First off you need to stop labeling everyone that has a different opinion as racists. You throw that word out a lot without any evidence.
For the third time, I respect everyone's opinion as I have stated twice already. I also said I respect those who do not agree with this move or BLM, but expressed they can still support black lives without saying the slogan. I respect that. What I don't respect is talking making fun of how a person was killed, deflection, and labeling anyone who supports this move as a black liberal as evidenced in the post with a book cover.
It's possible to fight one issue at a time or for one org to focus on a battle. BLM is a social group and movement who's main fight is police brutality and injustice.
Black on black crime is a issue the same way white on white crime is a problem. The difference in death by police vs black on black crime is most of those black people who committed the crime do the time. That has not been the case when unarmed people have been clearly murdered at the hands of police. They fight the issue because too many cops have gotten away with their crimes despite having charges brought against them in some cases. They are not the same issue. Black on black violence is stood up against daily.

You politicize it so that you can have conversations like this, and fight against it in guise.
The root issues are not political at all, despite how you want to twist it to fit your narrative

Site completely hijacked by nonLSU SJWs. Look at the profiles of the people supporting the political posts. Nothing to do with LSU. Big mistake by LSU to let these idiots politicize the purple and gold

a very, very small percentage of black on black murders result in charges, much less convictions. In total, only 50% of murders in this entire country, for all races, have resulted in charges the past decade. In Chicago, where black on black murder is at a ridiculous level, only about 1 in 6 results in a murder charge.

I didn't politicize anything. They did when they laid out what they want to change in this country.

If it were only that simple.. You are merely reflecting the privilege that has been part of your life. Your reply is what the Protest is all about..

quote:So to fight "police brutality", BLM openly advocated for shooting police officers in 2016. That's not a "fight", that's CRIMINAL activity. They claim to be fighting "injustice" by immediately convicting the Minnesota police officer WITHOUT a trial or the presentation of ALL of the facts. Initially, I was quite bothered by what we were told and shown as it pertains to the Floyd death. As more information trickles out, however, I have decided that there might have been more to the story and as a FAIR person, I am willing to put my initial thoughts on hold until we know EVERYTHING. The MSM is a left-leaning propaganda machine so I no longer have trust in what they broadcast. At any rate, BLM is NOT some sort of truth loving, fair minded, law abiding organization working to "improve" anything. They are the Democrat election-year foot soldiers paid to drum up anger in the black community to keep their "slave" voters in line. The facts PROVE this to be TRUE. To me, TRUTH matters.

You’re conflating two different arguments into one.
I’m with you on police reform.
Black on black killings has resulted in astronomical single parent homes. Isn’t it like 60% of black kids grow up in fatherless homes?
So the white on white crime isn’t really relevant because there obvious staples in the white community nationally that puts a preference on 2 parent family homes. Same for Hispanics and Asians which is big reason why they enjoy more economic prosperity.
It’s a culture thing that needs to change and that’s something the black community themselves need to address.

Video evidence of kneeling in the man's neck in the beginning and end of any more evidence needed that the office took it too far. The man commits a crime? Sure lock his arse up as I have always said whether it's family, friend, or foe. You will never see me yelling free a criminal in the black community just because of relation to him or her.
And Magician2, I can appreciate your response. However, you are lumping black fathers killed from black on black crime with those imprisoned for other crimes or injustices.
This video should put some things into perspective for some who can't stay on topic.
Stop deflecting or assuming black people aren't angry about black on black crime

after seeing this I’m done with LSU!! Season tickets sold!!

They’ll never be able to separate politics from it dawg. Can’t even separate it from sports in general.

quote:It "appears" that way, I will admit. The autopsy results somewhat disputes that death was caused by asphyxiation and instead might have been drug or health related as well as several other videos that show a prolonged struggle by Floyd with the officers. As bad as it first appeared, I am still willing to wait for ALL of the evidence before convicting anyone. Mob justice is not legal justice. We don't have a safe, secure, and peaceful society without the judicial process. I am unwilling to throw all of this away because of what "might" have happened in a particular case.

Please explain how “Black Lives Matter” can “openly advocate” anything. It cannot. It is an amorphous political and social movement. You have found a statement by somebody and you to use it to impeach the motives of the entire movement. That alone tells the reader everything he needs to know about your views and your reliability as a fair arbiter of these issues.
