The War on Poverty to combat the poverty that was virtually nonexistent back during the 60s
All the feminist movements, most recently after the Rolling Stone article came out, that speak of an imaginary crisis of university males believing it's okay to rape women
Not all who've supported Ferguson support the attempted takeover by the group. They didn't start the protests (an unjust killing did) and they certainly haven't offered any solutions, just vague ideals. There's an LGBT agenda with the hashtag that I support, but I don't support their tactics at this point.
There is a broader movement going. #blacklivesmatter is NOT the Movement.
IMO, I don't want to live next to most blacks or in any black community. No one here who is not lying would opt to by a home in most all black areas. They are crime ridden cesspools that even the good blacks don't want to be in. The problem is that many good blacks are enablers to the bad blacks. They will march to protest the justifiable shoot of scum like Mike Brown and Trayvon Martin, while at the same time denounce Bill Cosby for saying pull up your pants and quit naming your kids Shaniqua and other stupid names that make you look dumb and talk proper English. You don't have to be an English scholar but quit defending fat dumb asshats like Jantel whatever her name was when she made the most unintelligent comments like creepy ass cracker is not racist, or how she could not read properly and that is ok because she is fat and black. Quit making excuses for stupid behavior and your race will make great strides in a good direction.
Who thinks Black lives don't matter? Sounds like an example of left-wingers creating an imaginary crisis.
Apparently, many police and white conservatives. Examples include he claim that Trayvon Martin was "thug" who "deserved it, and the numerous attacks on the black people of Ferguson by their police, and the non-indictment is f the guy who killed Eric Garner.
Oh yes, and that cop who serially raped black women - can't remember his names, and the names of his victims aren't publicly available.
It's been pretty clear on these forums that some feel superior because of their race and judge others because of it.
I support the mission of the hashtag, I just feel that at this point, its a distraction from why the protests started. They started because of Police issues.
All do matter. But not to everyone. I don't see these black leaders protesting in Compton when gang banger kill each other. Those young gang bangers lives don't really matter to sharptons and the jacksons a of America. It's as if the blacks are suppose to kill each other. Crazy.

Then that's because you aren't paying attention.
All though, at least you didn't say "Chicago".
