If so, BLM's main issue seems to be that they don't want to see any police around, ever. The Wild West was so much fun!
Perhaps if they adopt truth in advertising, BLM should rename itself ThugLivesMatter.
Only if they are black.

Can any of you PPs tell me why any black life, even a black thug's life, wouldn't matter? Even a criminal has the right to due process.
Easy. Self defense.
This whole racial tension started with Obama publicly siding with T Martins family. His administration interfered and tried filing federal charges. Then he does the same thing in MO after Thug M Brown repeatedly attacked an Officer. All these BLM are racist Thugs taking up causes in cases where Thugs were clearly the issue.
Cop Killings ! Laughable considering most victims are white. Skin color has nothing to do with all the bad incompetent pieces of shit cops in the Departments
Just to get this off my chest. My great great grandfather a Union Soldier with a New Jersey Volunteer Unit was killed in action outside Atlanta while attempting to free slaves. I want to know where my reparations are and scores of other whites that died to free them. Idiots. BLM is nothing but a hateful totally racist group with some very ignorant dumb shit white people thrown in.
This is why I'm voting Trump. No more PC. They want to call me cracker , I'll call them N
And, Ladies and Gentlemen, this is where race-based policies and cultural obsessions is taking us...
"The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race,” Chief Justice John Roberts wrote in 2007, “is to stop discriminating on the basis of race.”

Actually that is incorrect. That is the first time that BLM became a household name and the MSM cared about it - but BLM was actually doing things before that.
And actually that is not what BLM wants at all. I am not a BLM member myself as I do find some of their tactics extreme. But given the inherent power that LEO's have, I see no problem in holding them to a high standard and holding them accountable for coming up short. They are not always right.

Many troll posts on here.
Jeff did a great job explaining why BLM supporters dislike Trump. I am still waiting to see a reasonable argument on why people who support BLM should not have an issue with Trump.

Do you think of Tamir, the 12 year old murdered by the police, as a thug?

Seriously? This is unexpected on what I thought was a progressive forum.
The best way I have heard to explain it is this-- yes, it goes without saying that all houses matter. But if one house is on fire, you are going to work to save that house. You're going to pay more attention to that house until it is saved. That house gets more resources for the moment, even if the other houses have to a bit, because they aren't on fire. Things aren't desperate for those houses.
All lives matter, obviously.
But the BLM movement is important and necessary because a group of people needs more attention, care, protection, and rights that other "lives" may take for granted.

"Our great African American President hasn't exactly had a positive impact on the thugs who are so happily and openly destroying Baltimore!"
And:
"African-American youth are at a point where they've just about never done more poorly, there's no spirit, there’s killings on an hourly basis virtually in places like Baltimore and Chicago and many other places."
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/donald-trump-says-african-american-youths-have-no-spirit-10342030.html
He then went on to blame Obama for that. While there are far too many killings of and by black youth in many parts of the country, it is wrong to say that there is no spirit among black youth or that they have never done more poorly. Trump unfairly stereotypes a very heterogeneous community.

Add to all that Trump chanting All Lives Matter at his rallies.
That is plain horrible.
Why exactly? Don't all lives matter??
Exactly, reverse racism.

I'm pretty sure their main issue is that they don't want Blacks to have to behave in the same way as other people.
