Here's video for those who refuse to see beyond the BS story that either all BLM supporters are thugs and terrorists, wanting to slay every cop in retaliation, and that all cops are racist serial killers gunning down every black man they can.

There is a middle ground - a place where cops do protect black people and black people are grateful and recognize the inherent heroism in public service.

Despite the epic loss of life in Dallas, the city is actually a beacon for other cities on how to conduct community policing - ensuring cops get home safely every night and the communities of color they serve, are served well without civilian deaths due to either latent racism or improper training.

Anyway, watch the video. Maybe spend the rest of night not being so angry, and just for a few minutes think of the opposite side...and wish them well.

there is a middle or neutral ground on almost everything.

the truth though is conservative white males don't like black people. there is no middle ground for the conservative white male in regards to there beliefs in regards to blacks.

Projection is a form of defense in which unwanted feelings are displaced onto another person, where they then appear as a threat from the external world. A common form of projection occurs when an individual, threatened by his own angry feelings, accuses another of harbouring hostile thoughts.

You say there is a middle or neutral ground then vacate that ground and seek the high ground to promote a racist view. You don't move the conversation forward but drive people to their respective corners and wait for the fight to begin. It would be more honest to stop the BS and say the message of the OP is a waste of time.

You describe it as if it's a one way street. You could switch the words white and black and put liberal in place of conservative in your statement and it would hold the same idea. The main problem with your statement would still exist. You label everyone and paint them with the same broad brush or place them all in a separate box. That may be your truth but it isn't THE TRUTH.

Lot of people have been interview including the ones that organized the rally and called for the genocide of white people in this country. After what has happened he is now walking those words back.

Very well said. People here are too quick to place others into broad categories.

As a conservative white male I can tell you unequivocally this is simply not true as a blanket statement. You can say 'some' CWM's don't like (whoever) and I wouldn't argue. But please, don't think we ALL feel that way.
Nor would I presume to make a blanket statement about any other group of people.
