IMO, the TOO needs to be re-added at the end to make it more clear. Some people misconstrue it to mean "Black lives matter ONLY", when the intent is "Black lives matter TOO.".
You're being too kind. Anyone with half of a functioning brain knows the the term "black lives matter" doesn't mean that "ONLY black lives matter".
The only people that get that upset over BLM slogans are overt or closet white racists.
No I don't have to respect the opinions of a terrorist organization that has killed thousands of innocent black people, raided and bombed black towns and places of worship, and had unprovoked violence against thousands more innocent black people. No, I DON'T need to respect anything that advocates for my oppression and dehumanization.
If the KKK was a black organization they would be named by the US government as a terrorist group and their right to speech and assembly in public places wouldn't exist, as it should be with these white supremacist groups. The US needs to stop defending and giving safe haven to these terrorists the same way they don't provide it for ISIS members and Al Qaeda.
Blacks perpetrate more violence against whites in this country in one year than these KKK type groups have perpetrated against blacks since their inception. Get real! Look at the FBI Uniform Crime Reports. Look at some facts instead of being led around by the nose!

Period.
To be fair... BLM have a PR problem... While the intent is "BLM too" certain groups that identify as BLM are not sticking to message allowing others to leverage that media coverage to define BLM as anti white and anti cop. It may not be true but perceptions is everything when it comes to organized movement,
Whites are under attack because liberals think you're racist, a supremacist and whatever. And it comes from self-hating white liberals.
We do not police thought... One is allowed to think another is racist or a supremist. To insinuate that white supremacists simply do not want to be thought as a racist and leave it that is disingenuous.
They want a lot more than a change in image and reputation... A lot more...
So do you feel that people who disagree with white supremacy should be silenced?
That poster saying that their free speech wouldn't be "tolerated" can mean many things. I took it to mean that other, non-racist Americans, we will use our own free speech to counter what white supremacist are saying.
Do you feel that we should not? Do people not have a right to counter the free speech of others?
Nope..not what I'm saying at all..I'm saying that when confrontation is clearly the goal..when any reasonable person can see that violence will result---to continue is a reckless act---that could lead to a jail sentence..in the right/wrong circumstances.
I asked if that was counterproductive?
I completely support free speech--odd though...that any party could say the same things they have to say..on different days, at different venues--yet both sides yearn for confrontation. Why is that confrontation the only way to exercise your rights?
Nothing to see here folks.... please move along.. its "just your racist imagination"
Whites apparently aren't allowed to have pride in themselves...
