Here's the BLM website. Read about them here. I get that many of the posters live in a different reality than I do but why not go to the source???

just SHUT UP already!

pictures are popping up all over the country - on trees, monuments, etc. with messages of hate to kill ALL cops. And they still protest. With police protection.
BLM are science deniers, ignoring statistics and doing their best to encourage situations which can end up deadly to add more examples for their cause.


Can you imagine if some other group was seen on media again and again calling for the deah of anyone???? Nope BLM gets an invite to the whitehouse and backing from the congressional black caucus.


Where is pelosi warning the BLMs that rhetoric can lead to violence. Free pass, get out of jail free card for 'domestic terrorists' eric holder warned us about.

one had nothing to do with other-- and yet all is relative - but your post is screaming from one side of the coin, and want to supress the other side..?

Cops are being targeted and murdered. You're conflating and deflecting.

Again, cops are being targeted and murdered.

While black on black violence is.....well.....it's what it is. Another day.


It would be interesting to see what would happen if the cops got smart and only pretended to be doing their jobs in Chicago, Detroit, Oakland. E St. Louis, Newark, Camden................. An old fashion work slowdown or as the union types put it "work to rule".

Not me.

The more we see the violent actions of the BLMers, coupled with more cops being murdered in cold blood, the easier it will be to tell who supports whom in America.

Thankfully the internet and alternative media keeps the old MSM for defining and dictating the narrative.

Not ONE word from BLM or the national media on the off duty cop in Brooklyn who shot and killed a black man a few weeks ago.

Police: Off-Duty Cop Fatally Shoots Man In Brooklyn Road Rage Incident « CBS New York

it doesn't sell as well when the cop is black.
I agree with you that BLM and other militant terrorist groups are causing a serious problem and inciting violence, but the above does not help your argument at all.

The story above was a cop in his car when some dude reached through his window and punched him several times. Of course the cop is going to shoot him.

Sterling was ON THE DAMN GROUND ALREADY with two cops sitting on top of him, and the one cop shot him at point blank range while the guy was already down.

As I continue to say, there are steps in the use of force. You don't jump over those steps. I can guarantee you that they missed one of those steps before deciding to take him down and then shoot him. He may have been a piece of work who just got out of prison, and he may have threatened someone, that still does not give a cop the right to shoot the guy point blank range when he and another cop are already on top of the guy who is on the ground. Especially when it was later revealed that there was no gun found.

Two completely different situations.

I do not condone anyone retaliating against cops, especially the ones who had nothing to do with the incidents in question, by killing cops, and these groups who are telling people to kill cops need to be brought up on charges, but if you're trying to make a case about why the groups didn't mention this story or that one, it's going to have to be comparable to the current stories that are pissing them off. An off duty cop shooting some guy who was repeatedly punching him through his car window because he was mad is NOT the same thing as putting someone down on the ground and then shooting them point blank.

There is zero proof that happened which is why the officer is in trouble. The video tends to disprove this narrative.

a video surveillance of the scene surfaced and it seems the cop lied. the driver should have never gotten out of his car to confront someone who cut them off, that's just STUPID!

However, the video shows the cop firing at him the moment he got close to the car. he never touched him.
