That's Wrong ! There is for the vast Majority of Folks, No Hate towards Black people. Skin color for 99% of the people has Nothing to do with it at all. It's always about the hypocrisy of always using the notion that Everything is about race. Can't people disagree on issues and events without being labeled Racists when in fact it works equally Both Ways and Not just amongst Whites, Blacks, Browns, Yellow, Red . People naturally have views that differ from someone elses. Always have.
All of these Modern day shenanigans are about getting extra benefits, money and treatment over and above the already existing laws. Every single special interest group is trying to overshadow the other "Me" groups out there as if there is a pot of Gold waiting to see whom or what group has the best lawyers to win with.
If say the "Black lives matter movement" truly believed itself then Why hasn't The movement asked for any real help in stopping the Black on Black killing sprees and the issue with Narcotics running rampant in Our Cities ? Why is it only when a person is shot or arrested with physical force, that probably wouldn't have happened anyway if that person hadn't resisted the police to start with, the Only thing that matters to the "Black lives matter movement" ? You can only Cry Wolf so many times before people stop listening. Not Just My opinion.
It's the minority, no pun intended, that ruins it for everybody because most people are decent and rational and not caught up on issues like race. And the ignorant scare the rational into falling in line because many people don't have the courage to say how they really feel and stand up to them.
Liberal WaPo Columnist Admits That ‘Hands Up, Don’t Shoot’ Was A Lie
So, is Al next?
Quote:The late evening of Aug. 9, 2014, I couldn’t sleep. I was due to substitute-anchor MSNBC’s “UP with Steve Kornacki” and should have been asleep. But after looking at my Twitter feed and reading the rage under #Ferguson, I felt compelled to type a reaction to the killing of Michael Brown by police officer Darren Wilson. Tying the shooting to the inane whine of certain politicians about a “war on whites,” I decried the next morning the death of yet another unarmed black man at the hands of a white police officer.
In those early hours and early days, there was more unknown than known. But this month, the Justice Department released two must-read investigations connected to the killing of Brown that filled in blanks, corrected the record and brought sunlight to dark places by revealing ugly practices that institutionalized racism and hardship. They have also forced me to deal with two uncomfortable truths: Brown never surrendered with his hands up, and Wilson was justified in shooting Brown.
The report on the Ferguson police department detailed abuse and blatant trampling of the constitutional rights of people, mostly African Americans, in Ferguson. Years of mistreatment by the police, the courts and the municipal government, including evidence that all three balanced their books on the backs of the people of Ferguson, were laid bare in 102 damning pages. The overwhelming data from DOJ provided background and much-needed context for why a small St. Louis suburb most had never heard of exploded the moment Brown was killed. His death gave voice to many who suffered in silence.
With the growing number of movements that are based on victimization politics and completely misinformed participants (like Ferguson), we are doomed as a society to be forever mired in this politically-correct bull**** that excuses bad behavior and total lack of responsibility in favor of some percieved societal slight, completely independent of whether such a slight actually occurred.

That group only cares about black lives when they are killed by whites, especially white policemen. When they act like they give a damn about the thousands of blacks killed every year by other blacks, then I will pay attention to them. Black on black crime is the true horror in our society and they could care less.
Funny story.. Someone sent out a flier pointing out the Minneapolis school district's atrocious performance for black kids and put the tag "Black Lives Matter" on it. But they were white and the cause was not leftist so they are being attacked harshly over using the hashtag.

It's important to keep in mind that it's probably just a few people. If 1% of the black community in the US makes a stink and fuss about something in the US and Canada then that means that literally MILLIONS of people are getting upset though the majority of us are not so extreme.
Like I said, all it takes is a few people to skew the perception for the majority. As they say, this is why we can't have nice things.

They marched on the Texas Capitol in support of open carry and self defense, but also against police and in support of #BlackLivesMatter.
In this video, they make very clear their animosity towards police, chanting, “The only good pig is a pig who’s dead” and “oink oink, bang bang”.
I know He won't, but Obama should list the Black Panthers among the top 10 Domestic Terrorist Groups like the Klan. The list has the KKK as #1
#BlackLivesMatter Founders: We Are Looking For More “White Co-Conspirators” To Help “Dismantle Systems Of Oppression”…
Every white guilt-ridden liberal’s dream come true.
Quote: One issue that was brought up about the difficulties surrounding cohesiveness was the battle over Latino identity when it comes to white vs. black. Garza said she sees a push to whiten the Latino identity, something Tometi calls a tactic to keep ethnic-minority communities oppressed.
“How are they going to use and pit different communities against each other in order to undermine our power?” Tometi said.
The pair said they are especially concerned with the 2016 national elections, in which they hope issues affecting civil rights and black lives will be front and center.
Meanwhile, Garza said she is looking for more “white co-conspirators” to help with unification efforts. “I think we spend a lot of time figuring out how to move white people, and just because of the social power dynamics, I don’t think that we’re best positioned to do that,” Garza said. “I think other white folks who are invested in dismantling systems of oppression are best positioned to engage with other white people.”
The whole thing ultimately just causes the influential white community, which is really just the middle 50% of whites to recoil away from the blacks and their problems.
There are the parts of the white community who have the privilege of caring but most don't. Most whites have to worry about their kids school, it's the only one they've got. They are only from one place. They only have one job. They can't afford to experiment in faux equality.
Find me a middle class white family who is willing to send their kid into the inner city so some other kid can come out and take their spot in the suburban school.
Speaking for me, I am to the point where I am past caring. I had my time when I thought I could help. You can't. It's best to ignore it and I can. I'm not the only one who feels that way. And, THAT, is what should scare the lower 50% of the black community. The more the nuts on their side run their mouths the fewer people end up caring over the long run.

Fvuk the ridiculousness of #blacklivesmatter / social justice warriors desperately seeking only to prove that they are living a life of oppression in modern America.

Like I said, the loudest people get the most attention. Not everyone, like me, is eager to block freeways and blast social media for the slightest transgression against blacks.
And YES sometimes its justified and YES there's a long history of oppression of whites against blacks but I honestly don't feel the need to blow up every single incident and anger innocent, uninvolved people.

Exactly, things may not be perfect but they are good enough where the issues can be sorted out without these calls to riot and destroy the system.

The new American dream is to be a victim. Every movement out there is centered around faux victimhood and the fight for justice, and most of the time its imagined.

You'd think, given all the victimization seekers, that the US is the worse country on the entire planet. These folks have no idea what lies beyond our borders.

C2... there are a lot of unjust things that happen to black people... sometimes I just wish the black community chose it's causes better... Michael Brown.. I mean really Michael Brown...that whole protest was organized by little white progressives that just used the people of Ferguson to further there cause for a very unsympathetic man.
And Sharpton? Black America has to chose better leadership.
(This post was last modified: 03-19-2015 11:15 PM by No Bull.)
Sharpton is who the media chose as African-Americans' leader, not necessarily who African-Americans chose to speak for them.
And of course there are unjust things happening but often times the loud start alienating and angering the wrong people. Trust me, I could rehash some injustices and racism (conscious or subconscious) that has happened this decade alone, not 50-350 years ago but like I said, every little thing that gets blown up in the media is not gonna make me jump off the deep end, protest and like I just said, start alienating innocent people. As has been said in this thread, they've begun to tune them out.
I don't know what the solution is but it has to be better than the status quo.
