Because they are the only group besides Jewish people who are allowed to be tribal.
Their investment in these shootings plays to their own personal lack of self esteem and an opportunity to blame others for their own lack of accountability.

I think it is safe to to say that the majority of white people really don't give a shite when some random white person is killed by the police especially if that person has a violent criminal past. Why do black people act like it was one of their family members who died. I constantly here people talking about holding back tears, expressing their unbridled anger and disgust etc.... It does not make sense to be so emotionally invested in some random person on the other side of the country.
You can attribute most of the over the top outrage over black criminals dying while being confronted and arrested by law enforcement to the Gaslight Media, Dim Marxist politicians and faux SJW organization like BLM. I believe there's some negligence on the part of law enforcement for not devising better methods and procedures to handle criminals once the encounter begins but I certainly don't blame individual cops for the deaths of criminals like Michael Brown, George Floyd or any other suspect who decides not to comply with police orders.

Too many look for car accidents and police shootings as their lottery tickets.

Do you determine if the conversation is rational or not?
Yes, as I do with every conversation I have. If a person becomes too emotional to rationally discuss a topic, I tend to avoid said person/topic. I find this to be most common with liberals, but the diehard Trump folks can be this way too.

All I know is the donations to BLM need to pick up. Hell, Patrisse Cullors is trying to buy another damn house. Don’t these folks understand her struggle?

Never have known a conservative/Trump supporter who I would
considef irrational. The conservatives I know love to challenge Dims and the Dims typically want no part of political discussions.

i would say most of the blacks outraged don't work, are lazy, fat, leeches of society and are looking to have purpose in their otherwise purposeless life...o, that and the potential of free shoes and boos

It's a civil rights struggle.
Always been a civil rights struggle.
Always gonna be a civil rights struggle.
Strugglers seem to be having a good time while struggling though. Especially when struggling inside footlocker after hours when there is a huge price drop. Good shoes and a new flat screen makes struggling a little more worthwhile.

Blacks in America are the only people he can think of who routinely put the lowest common denominator of their group on pedestals.
No one will argue that but it is not like whites haven't been putting lowest denominators on pedestals. We have a considerable amount of major cities that are third world status. We've allowed our political and corporate class to loot our country. Too many people chase the dollar bill and status. Capitalism is our culture.

Well they aren’t emotionally invested in 2 parent homes so they have to spend their time on something.

Also notice the difference between black on black shootings and officer involved shootings.
Black on black shooting = nobody saw anything, even though many people were nearby when it happened. No financial payout.
Officer involved shooting = press conferences, resignations, protests across the country, looting, property damage, huge media coverage, etc. Not to mention people from all over the country/world start throwing accusations and claim they know exactly what happened. Huge financial payout.
My theory is the more folks that BLM can convince to jump on board with their propaganda, the more interest and press coverage it receives, means a big financial payout in the end.

what many whites don't know is that blacks (obviously not all) cannot stand white people...its like an inner tic... I work with many blacks.. some educated, many not... the educated are great.. we're all the same, we're all equal... The uneducated absolutely hate my guts for no reason... even though I've saved their jobs more times than i care to say... the educated black guys tell me why they hate my guts.. so.. take it for what its worth... but it revolves around two things.. their education and their culture... period.

Nothing is anyone's fault, so it must be someone else's fault.
I didn't make good grades because the teacher didn't like me. Now, the teacher is racist.
I couldn't get a job because I can't do basic math, or read beyond first grade level. Employers are racist.
I can't afford nice things because I don't have a job and I have 2 kids by the age of 20. Everybody's racist.
I can't shop at that store, because I bounced checks and was caught shoplifting. Store owner racist.
I got pulled over because my tail lights were out and I had a "tag applied for" sign written on cardboard in the window, and the cop smelled weed, and I had a suspended license, and I had outstanding warrants. Cops are racist.
I didn't win the election, even though I am an inexperienced blowhard leviathan in a state that abhors such. Voting is racist.
And that's how you get to where we are.

BECAUSE OF WHAT YOUR RACIST ANCESTORS DID TO OUR PEOPLE THATS WHY. NO IT WILL NEVER BE ERASED BC PRIVILEDGE IS GIVEN TO ONE RACE OF PEOPLE OVER THE OTHER. RACISM IS BEING TAUGHT BY WHITE PARENTS AND THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN MADE EASIER FOR WHITES TO SUCCEED. WHEN BLACK ON BLACK CRIMES ARE COMMITTED MAJORITY OF THE TIMES THE PERSONS INVOLVED ARE TAKEN TO JAIL OR RETALIATED AGAINST. IN OTHER WORDS THEY PAY FOR THEIR ACTIONS. WHEN WHITE COPS AND OTHER RACISTS ACTS OCCURS NO ONE IS DEALT WITH.
The "Woke" Patrol has arrived. Thank you for your short yet pointless comments.
Can we get someone that isn't caught up in their feelings, please?
