Tell it Jerry.

Quote:A man is going viral for questioning where Black Lives Matter activists are during the flooding in Louisiana.

Jerry L. Washington, a Baton Rouge native, posted a video to Facebook, asking why activists haven’t done anything to help the majority African-American city.

“Where are the Black Lives Matter and the Black Panthers?” Washington says in the video. “Because I ain’t seen one Black Panther boat or one Black Lives Matter boat. All I see is our own people from our own city saving us.”

“All the drama that was going on with the Alton Sterling killing, they came out with guns ready to go to war. But here we go, all these people flooded out and truly in need of help and we can’t find not one of them,” Washington says.

God bless him for his candor. I applaud him.

They are about to turn on him like a snake on a hot rock, though.

I wish this guy well. The Left doesn't want Blacks talking bad about them. They're supposed to be on their side regardless.

What he said was 100% right and he could have added, "where is Oblunder?"

#blm only shows up to help folks burn a lot of their own **** down on television.

then they jet.

they're a lot like democrats, in fact.

BLM is about getting free ****, not giving anything.

What ,Them work ? Not on the BLM radar. Destorying stuff, Hell Yeah, Helping others,No way !

Good God FoxNews and you guys on this board are obsessed with Black Lives Matter. I see or hear nothing about them anywhere on TV or the internet except for y'all's constant posting.

Breaking News: There's an entire continent East of the US filled with mostly black people and BLM is not doing anything for them! Next on Hannity!

LOL

As far as I can tell, BLM is a loosely run coalition of folks who organize protests when black folks get killed by police. They don't seem to be very large, coherent in messaging, have main leadership or spokespeople, or do much fundraising.

In short I don't think that the organization is very influential or important.

My evidence for that fact is that I don't see much news about them in my daily internet perusing (there's a lot of it) or in my tv news watching either.

However; Fox News, and people who consume a significant amount of their content, seem to run stories and talk about BLM constantly; they are usually of the "If b.l.m so much, why don't you care about THIS?" variety.

My conclusion is that there is something about BLM as an org, or perhaps just the name, that really rubs Fox and their average viewers the wrong way, because the amount of coverage is very outsized compared to the actual importance of the "movement."

I'm not really butthurt about it though, I just wonder why it is the way it is. And I always keep plenty of this around just in case:

They have a message, mostly a laughable one in regards to their "Demands", but it does exist.

They also have the funding. Expect to hear much more from them soon.
