And yes, I totally agree with her. " All lives matter" totally missed the point. |
| All lives will matter, the day that black lives matter. That was great. Wish she would have mentioned Tamir Rice, 12 years old, murdered by police. They wouldn't even let his mother hold him as he lay dying. That would have NEVER happened were he not black. Dear police officers, Please stop killing black people. Thx |
What exactly do you want your own local cops to do? Just curious. Please be specific. |
NP. Improve training on use of lethal force End "Broken Windows" policing Wear body cameras End "Policing for profit" (i.e. raising revenue by hounding local residents) Allow police to be interviewed by investigators the day of questionable incidents and not wait 5,10 or even 30 days like some states allow Install civilian review boards |
| I think they should speak at the DNC convention. I think it would be really powerful. |
I'm a republican white guy and I support this Next time I see a balck lives matter protest put that stuff on a sign and I would march with you Until that happens BLM is a joke |
Look up Campaign Zero, it's like the logical data-based sister of BLM that's not getting the press it deserves. |
| ^ I think BLM is a disorganized clusterfuck but I love Campaign Zero http://www.joincampaignzero.org/ |

I hate to start another thread so in the same spirit I'll just post this video here, since it's also worth watching. It features several well-known celebrities (Pink, Alicia Keyes, Adam Levine, etc.) and is entitled "23 Ways You Could Be Killed If You Are Black in America."
Apologies if this has already been posted. It's making the Twitter rounds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_VaNhI4CLo |
| Love this, thanks for sharing OP. |
I don't get this. Can't BLM get their hands on some serious Soros cash and buy decent folks to lead them? |
No, that would be too establishment. |
Dear black people - stop committing crimes. Thx |
See the thread on the therapist who was shot in Miami. Having black skin IS the crime in the minds of too many police officers. |
It's amazing that, if they did, violent crime would decline by half. Literally. Even more when you are talking about black victims, violent crimes on them would decline by over 90%. That's surely what BLM is about, isn't it? Sorry, I don't watch much TV. |
