I understand branh. I know there are 'reports' that instigators are bussed in from other areas to start trouble, break windows, etc. but it's probably more likely it's just local opportunists doing most of that (and often after a lot of the main protestors have left). BLM, as a movement, is largely not violent and not "rioting."
I do think there is evidence of very questionable police violence against black people, and I'm also concerned with how many police agencies look more like para-military outfits (especially when pursuing the War on Drugs).
BLM is to blacks as KKK is to whites. Both claim to support the advancement of their respective race but do it in the worst possible way which worsens their case several times over.
There is a very very small percentage of whites that support KKK, most vehemently denounce them
Thats so true....on top of that KKK doesn't like many white people as they are more Neo Nazi's who were /are also white.
Can we agree that anyone who is not for all good life's matter are bad people!

The entire BLM movement stands for racism as it doesn't want to discuss the poverty and wrong doing to many black people in areas where the government has given up on them aside from voting times when they need them.
People at colleges yelling BLM should be ashamed as it is all College life matter and not dividing people in groups as it is what they are doing and blaming everyone for everything.
There is wrong doing in all layers of society that needs to be solved and it starts at the top where Clinton's seem to be above the law.
Start with charging them like.any other person in society would be charged for the same wrong doing. Examples are set at the top!
Many of you don't seem to know what Black lives matter is about and I really wish you wouldn't speak on it. If I'm not educated on a topic, I'm not going to say anything about it. Some of you ought to do the same. Comparing BLM to the KKK is the most absurd thing I have read in a really long time.
Or, they do know what BLM is about and are educated, having watched and listened to all the audio/video and come to a different conclusion than you have.
It's one thing to write you are for a certain set of things but when your words and actual deeds show different?
Right. Everyone who isn't racist should support BLM. It isn't some violent, terrible group and the message isn't that ONLY Black lives matter. From the very beginning, their message has been, "Black lives ALSO matter." Anyone who can think even a little bit should know this.
The second night of riots in Charlotte over the controversial police killing of an allegedly armed Black man, Keith Lamont Scott, saw protesters riot, loot, shoot a fellow protester and try to toss a photographer on to a small bonfire set in the road of Uptown Charlotte.
