[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Once BLM came out with their list of "demands," which reeked of hostility - even hatred - toward whites, along with their anti-Israel rantings, I lost any modicum of respect for them.[/b] They should be out there on the airwaves, imploring the rioters to behave peacefully, lest they feed the very sterotypes they are trying to dispel. They were better last night - thanks, National Guard - but the previous two nights showed why police might be nervous around blacks and, in a freak-out moment, prematurely pull the trigger.[/quote]

The bolded is my sentiments exactly. That is where the movement lost me.[/quote]

What a coincidence...
Once I saw Rodney King get his ass kicked for 20 minutes with no attempt at apprehension - just an old fashioned ass-whupping by some good ol' boys with guns and badges that's when my mistrust of the police began.
And once I saw Eric Garner get choked out for (GASP!!) selling lose cigarettes that's when my mistrust of the police gained traction.
And once I saw Tamir Rice get blown away in 2 seconds with no hesitation and no attempt at deescalation (if it were indeed somebody waving a gun) that's when my mistrust of police gained grew.
And once I saw Walter Scott get shot in the back while running away and then saw the cop walk up and plant a gun next to him to fabricate some story about a struggle and/or a threat that's when my mistrust of police was certain.

Hmmm....
And, I remember Reginald Denny getting beaten, nearly to death, by 4 black men rioting in LA. 
And, I remember a mob, just a couple of days ago, attacking a female truck driver, looting the contents of her truck and setting it on fire. 
And, I remember, just s couple nights ago, a “protester” shooting and killing a person in the crowd for no good reason. 
I could go on, but you get my point........
So, the pp has a point.  There may be a reason that the police, and others, are just a little nervous around large crowds of angry people where BLM has a presence.  Especially since some of these folks would like to put the “pigs in a blanket - fry ‘em like bacon.”  [/quote]

So essentially you run out the elevator in your office building when you see a black man in there?
You avoid all contact and correspondence with colleagues who are black because they have a proclivity for violence?
You shun your black neighbors and scurry your kids away from black families at playgrounds because of what some roused up protesters were chanting?[/quote]
