PP is lying, racist scum. The “statistics” show black men are 21 times more likely to be killed by cops then white men. https://www.propublica.org/article/deadly-force-in-black-and-white

I think anything that singles out one race is offensive because it makes others feel less worthy. Goes both ways like whites only bathrooms. Singling out that only Black lives matter gives the same impression. Why does the race even matter. Police brutality is what it is and shouldn't be tolerated, not matter the race.

That's your issue, not the movement's. It doesn't make me feel less worthy as a white person that black people wanted to be acknowledged and treated as equally worth people.

You are a tone deaf boomer to think it is appropriate to post this at this time.

DP. Why do you think it is okay for you to be intolerant but you expect tolerance from others? You're a hypocrite (and probably other things …). If you expect tolerance then you need to practice tolerance. Until you realize that no one will be willing to listen to you.

I don’t need you to listen to me. You are the one claiming BLM is unfair because you were bullied in elementary school. It’s a ridiculous position.

You don't think that happened? You are racist and obnoxious. Its not about being unfair but don't expect everyone to follow one movement especially when there are not clear leaders, it is equally rooted in violence and if you look at statistics, whites, hispanics and unknown races are also murdered and no one seems to care about that.

I believe it happened. I don’t care. You can say you don’t support BLM and that is your choice. I’m not pretending your elementary school bullying is = to enduring hundreds of years of systemic oppression and violence.

DP. And that is your problem. You believe that racism occurred with another person but you choose not to care. Some day hopefully you'll mature and you'll understand why your attitude is holding you back. If you can't be tolerant then you can't expect tolerance.

Again, elementary kids bullying another kid is not on the level of oppression Black people as a whole have endured by every system in this country. Have a great day.

If White people are so concerned about unarmed white people getting shot by police then start a movement. You can call it White Lives Matter aka WLM.

If you are truly concerned about ALL lives then start a movement for ALL lives. Every single time someone dies by a cop call them out. Protest for that individual.

BLM is to address Black lives dying. Take a moment and think about someone other than yourselves. It’s not about you. It’s about black lives dying at the hands of police.

That runs alarmingly and suspiciously counter to any other study. The Washington Post data shows it is 2.5 times more likely, with Hispanics ALSO dying at a disproportionate rate.

You're right, so then stop the calls for white people to stand up and be involved and active in the movement. Its not about us nor do you care about white or hispanics dying at the hands of the police as those lives don't matter.

I’m sure a group called White Lives Matter will go over SUPER well. Will BLM PP be an activist for the cause?

It doesn’t come across that way unless you are ignorant of why the movement was formed. How often are the cops killing unarmed white menor Asian women and getting away with it?

You should do some research. You might be surprised. I know the mainstream media makes it seem like ONLY blacks people are killed by the police, but that is certainly not the case.

Okay, educate us please. What are the names of a few white men murdered by the police? For simplicity, let’s limit it to 2020. Anyone?

It took me very little time to find an unarmed white man named Tyler Hays who was shot and killed during a traffic stop in Tennessee on May 19. It didn’t even make national news, however.

Look, I am not arguing that black oriole don’t get killed by police at a higher rate as a percentage of the population. That’s a fact. But for you to mock this and minimize that ALL races are at some point affected by police brutality doesn’t enamor others to your cause.

Well, I see no one cared to address this.

“If I as a White person aren’t centered I won’t fight for you at all.” Sigh.

The issue is police brutality which goes across all races. If you had any common sense, you'd look at the numbers and see that. So, if you want other racial groups to be involved, include them. But, this is basically a separatist movement. It isn't even separate but equal. All the lives lost due to police officers should be valued.

This was the best thing I have seen on this.

And guess who also commits a disproportionate number of homicides and other violent felonies?

It kind of is because those children learned hate of white people at home.

Simple solution.



Put an end to dehumanization, discrimination, disenfranchisement, and systemic racism.
Do that and their won't be a need for a BLM movement altogether and y'all won't have to stress about how acceptable the name is.
