Yeah I saw the black leaders making the whites out to be the rookery of misery all the time they were the ones stealing and protecting wide brim hatted blacks dealing drugs and turning 12 and 13year old girls into prostitutes. But don't worry about that now you hear me, we gots mo to think bout. Go down West Mac and flag. You do right and Kinks at McClymonds will take care of stuff.

Yeah, I know all about your kind. Sit there yapping about the klan while you put on hoodies and go watch the gangbang.

Before you even imply someone is a.member of the klan better look in the mirror but take off the hoodie first so you can look that person in the face.

Corruption crosses all races, political parties and economic backgrounds. ( Down state young and up and coming white Republican Congressman exhibited the same pattern of using campaign funds to feather his own nest with bizarre acquisistions. )

It's like the big elephant in the room . If you bring up any criticism of the BLM group they will accuse you of racism . So many accusations of racism these days that the term has almost lost it's meaning .
I think a group that has called for " defunding police departments " , Accusing Israel of genocide , demanding reparations , segregating protests and telling " whites and white media to go to the back " and holding blacks only groups in PUBLIC libraries and then crying " racist" when told they can't do that is asking to be criticized .

The problem is too many won't , for fear of being called "racist" and that's what they count on.
They are turning off a lot of their allies and I could see them going more in the direction of Nation of Islam or "new black panther party " .

It looks like there are already several spin off or splinter groups .
Millions March NYC is one

https://mobile.twitter.com/MillionsMarch

They like to chant around the city saying " F the police"
They refer to America as Amerikkka

They do use the hashtag #blacklivesmatter

One thing I noticed also is that if someone does something negative BLM supporters will claim that person wasn't involved with BLM.

When Guiliani takes his millionth bow for reducing crime in NYC during his term, did you ever question how crime substantially dropped all over the US and he rode the wave?


No worries. Trump promised that effective 1/20/2017, when he is inaugurated, crime will ( magically?) stop in the US cause he's the law and order president.

Well most criticism from the right of BLM is rooted in racism. Most but not all...

Just like most opposition to the civil rights movement and abolitionist movement before that was rooted in racism.. You can always predict a group's intentions by looking at their past actions and opinions...

Until Blacks stop acting like animals and killing each other for everything, other races will continue to fear them, flee neighborhoods where they go, and basically want to get away from them as quick as possible.

I am an Indian from South Africa and I took my family from the country to the United States when majority rule came in effect because Black crime became too much to deal with. That's why I live in a nice, White but most importantly SAFE community.

I don't want to experience what I did in South Africa ever again. Some people literally have no respect for human life.
You talking about me as well? I'm Black and most Blacks I know aren't slaughtering each other. Do you have anything better to do than complain about Blacks?

*chirp chirp*
I'm sure glad that Chicago's a gun free zone... imagine how many more of these tragedies we'd hear about if they were allowed weapons?

The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun, is a good guy with a gun.
I'm a good guy, and I'm packing... questions?
