Plow through and you'll be Al Sharpton's next target, you big racist. How dare you try and go about your business or not allow yourself to be victimized.

Do you think it was "convenient" when civil rights protesters marched in the 1960s? Heck no, middle America hated it. Martin Luther King never had more than 45% favorability in gallup polls in the 60s, and by 1966 he was polling at 72% unfavorable. Martin Luther King Jr.: Revered More After Death Than Before

I'm not black and have never had a problem with the police, or with black people for that matter. But thanks to the protests I do understand that some black people feel that the cards are stacked against them with the police. I would never have thought about if not for people demonstrating.

They're exercising their 1st amendment rights which I support.
Blacks can protest all they want, but that doesn't make them not hypocritical for doing so. How are they hypocrites you might ask?

1) Because as I've said numerous times, they've RARELY protested this often or have ever gotten this organized to protest black on black crime and they sure as hell have NEVER organized to protest again black on non-black crime. So what does this tell us? That they only care if blacks are unfairly treated or harmed by non-blacks and they don't care about anything else. That's how selfish and hypocritical blacks are, that we have to care about their cause and their problems, but they can't have the same courtesy to care about the problems that WE have with them. And they most definitely don't care about the daily violence and crime in their communities that are the main reason why their neighborhoods are violent sh$tholes.

2) They expect all their protests to be welcomed and heard, but what would happen if we did the same? What would happen if a large crowd of non-black people crashed a predominately black event to protest black on non-black crime and to demand that black people do something about it? They would be told not so politely to get the hell out of here if not quite probably being attacked and assaulted for exercising the same amendments that blacks do.

And THAT'S why blacks are such hypocrites, because when they're the victims they ALWAYS demand YOU to change for THEM. But when non-blacks are the victims at the hands of violent black people, US asking THEM to change is ALWAYS considered racist and unreasonable.

Exactly. I moved around quite a bit as a broke college student. That meant I lived in a lot of different predominantly black areas. I learned to keep my head down and stay inside. I had to install a security system after I got broken into twice. As soon as I started my job I was OUT. I looked to move across the city and asked for advice. Everyone knows the code words you have to use to avoid an undesirable area. But I'm the racist for wanting to live in a safe area.

Mix pickle juice, raw garlic and the water from tuna packets, use it to fill water balloons, throw liberally, have a ball and dont go to jail, how about that?


Back in my much dumber days, my buddies and I would tag the hell out of some of the Critical Mass folks when they were blocking up the only real major road in the town that we lived in. The level of butthurt was unreal. Looking back we most likely deserved to have our asses kicked.

Exactly so! If black lives really,truly matter then why are they not cleaning up their own 'hoods?
Clean up your own house before you go tossing stones at others I say!

We'd re-fill those big silver fire extinguishers with a nasty concoction and drive by groups we didn't really like and spray 'em down. Nothing to hurt 'em but they'd certainly stink to high heaven.

Black lives matter served a purpose so far the filmed events show the cops guilty as sin
Next step
Stop outlawing filming cops
Cameras straped on cops with an off switch??? You got to be kidding
Don't let the police police themselves
They won't
Another evil ---- cops confiscating neighborhood business surveillance videos of an arrest as "evidence"
Another mega cya
Time for some change

I wonder if the blacklivesmatter leaders realize they are doing more harm then good.

It reminds me of a time I was in NYC, there was a group of black protesters just protesting against whitey for no reason. Just rambling on about how life sucks for black people and it's white peoples fault.

Well, I don't really know who's fault anything is, but I do know that every person walking past this group probably had even less respect for these people. I said to one of them, hey, instead of wasting your time out here yelling at the street, how about you actually do something to make it better for yourself, because this ain't going to work.
