Dear black people - stop committing crimes. Thx


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.

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.

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.

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.

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'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 they should speak at the DNC convention. I think it would be really powerful.

And yes, I totally agree with her. " All lives matter" totally missed the point.
