Black folks fought in every conflict we’ve ever had in huge numbers. The more vocal members of our community called them “white men’s wars.” I’ll decline to call them that, but that sentiment ain’t far off the mark. Black folk’s interests sure as hell weren’t involved.
So pardon me if the white participation in BLM isn’t exactly bringing out loads of praise from me. But if you wish, I’ll genuflect in your presence if I ever see you personally. Or maybe I’ll just e-genuflect here on CD, seeing as you’re offering me your behind to kiss!

I’ve not participated. What is the point of wypipo joining a BLM demonstration?
Its time to admit racism against white people. Why isn't there any outrage for Duncan Socrates Lemp? Where are all the celebrities and athletes. He fire any shots. He didn't deal drugs or date someone who did. Why doesn't America know his name or the thousands of other names of people of different races killed by police? Where is the relentless all day media coverage? I just can't believe this is the future of America. This blatent bias, racism, brainwashing, and double standards against caucasions.
White people don't matter. And if you say that all people matter then you are a racist. This is our looney tunes world now.
You appear to be intelligent, I’m sure you understand that all kinds of people commit crimes, including cops.
The cop who shot LaQuan McDonald was convicted and is sitting in prison. LaQuan’s biological mother, who had no hand in raising him, was paid five million dollars.
That’s as close to justice as you’re going to get in this world. Of course, BLM is not really about justice, is it?
$5 million bucks. That’s what life is worth now? Can I murder you and give your family $5 million? Would your life be worth that much to them? That’s all?
Yeah. “Close to Justice.” But that ain't Justice.

Not my business. That’s between you and them. I’m not white, and their activities aren’t for me to question. Ask THEM, not me.
I’d have no problem supporting whites and even contributing money to their fight if they took up the mantle against police brutality. But what I won’t do is fight for them in their stead. Hell no. They ain’t never fought for us. . . .Whites can’t protest bad police behavior against whites because they’re afraid of looking as if they’re agreeing with blacks. And lord knows they can’t do that. It would also be an admission that blacks were right about the cops. And whites can’t do that either. . . . Fact is, you CAN’T stand up to the police now. It’s too late. Don’t get angry with the black community because of your community’s cowardice.

So, 100% of people that have ever demonstrated against anything have been directly impacted by the thing they're protesting?
There's this thing called empathy, you know.
That’s lost on right wingers.
Meanwhile, they’re trying to devise a way to take healthcare from people. Go figure.
