The aforementioned classless idiots =/= Black Lives Matter. How many times do I have to make this point? What BLM has done doesn't even hold weight compared to what the Ku Klux Krackers have carried out.
Are you a cop? Or is a loved one a cop? If the answer to both of those questions is no then stop whining and complaining. Stop caring about what doesn't concern you. I'm sure there are more personal matters you can dedicate time to being concerned about. The reason BLM keeps its name relevant is because people like you keep whining and bringing its name up instead of letting it die out like Occupy Wall Street did.

If you told me that someone was calling for the assassination of priests. I could really care less because I have no connection to them. When I hear whites doing mass shootings, I don't care. That's y'all problem. They happen mostly in your communities.

Treat these BLM incidents the way you would if I said there was a shooting between 2 black people. Just keep moving along.

You'll be just fine. Cops have guns so they can defend themselves.

BLM will go away when we stop talking about it

Now Baton Rouge Louisiana is in real trouble, a large portion of the city is seeing historic flooding that most of the flood savvy residents have never seen before. People are being rescued to save their lives, people have lost everything and are without food, water and shelter. People have been separated from their families and are in shelters all over the state.

Where are the Black Panthers now? Where is BML now? Where are their boats helping people out? Where are they rescuing people from the real danger? Where are they now to hand out food and water to people in desperate need? Where are they with clothing and blankets for these people who need their help? Where did all those people go?

It's people like you who complain. I'm just being empathetic here. Take your own advice and stop your whining. You're just trying to take the heat off your butt again.

BLM will only go away if and when Black people stop getting treated like 3/5 of a human being.

How is it going in Baton Rouge right now? Amazing how a little flooding can bring a neighborhood together.

You've exposed your prejudice once again.
I started this thread about the BLM movement and the Black Panthers, I didn't say jack **** about the entire black community. Don't be stupid, you know exactly what I'm talking about and all you're trying to do is sidetrack the conversation because you can't address what I brought up.

When I start a negative thread about the entire black community let me know, otherwise just shut up.

If you're in middle of America like Idaho and concerned about BLM s.tfu. No black people in so many states but you're whining about what they do in their parts of town states away. If you're white in a state like Montana and talking about Chicago, please stop whining.
Because they're inciting violence against police officers, how many times do you ignorant people need to be informed of the facts in this thread?

It's horrible and it's far from "a little flooding", while the death toll may be lower than Katrina the flood damage is certainly on the same scale. I've seen a lot of storm damage in my life and this is no less devastating than any hurricane flooding I've seen. The community is coming together, these people tend to take care of themselves instead of waiting for the gov. to show up. It's refreshing to see people look out for each other, we've seen very little in the way of looting or crime which is good.
