Two completely different issues as one relates to civil treatment by the government and the other relates to private party violence where in the majority of cases the person killed is also out trying to kill others if they hadn't done so already.
One would hope that their own government would be more open to change when faced with protest than local drug gangs.
That being said, BLM is toast. The people running the most abusive police departments have managed to somehow spin the problem as being Trump.
Really don't know how anyone here can claim to be a BLM supporter and still choke down the BS that is being fed to them by the likes of DeBlasio, Garcietti etc.
Well, this is how I see it. That girl stabbing another person is a violent crime worth of severe punishment. At the same time, there have also been cases where people with knives have been subdued without being killed.
That's grade A horse manure. That was a good shoot, you need to pick and choose your spots a whole lot better than trying to turn every police shoot into an over-reaction with vague references to other unknown instances that you wave your hands toward and expect us to accept.
You know how when you ask most white people about the KKK and they say ," Its just a small number of white people and their behavior doesn't represent the larger white mainstream population." I'm calling the same BS on black on black crime perpertrators.
I think they care, but they're focused on police officers killing black people, specifically how easily they evade accountability. We ALL benefit from police reform, white people are unjustly killed by the police all the time too.
You say "don't commit crimes, no problem", until you have the same car that was just used in an armed robbery and a cop shoots you 8 times because you didn't put your hands on the steering wheel fast enough.
They should since they were the first enslavers of their fellow blacks.In fact, they committed the "Original Sin" of the slavery that made its way across the world including the British Colonies that would become the USA.

"It's just a small number of white Democrats......"

Less than 5000 members in the klan. That's a small number.
13% of the population commits 50% of the murders and over 305 of the rapes and robberies. That's not a small percentages
Why is the OP asking? Do you care about black lives regardless of who kills them? Doubtful. Sounds like you just want to continue deflecting attention from the obvious problem with policing in this country.
I think it’s a matter of perspective. I personally do care about lives, everyone’s lives. But there is a cultural thing where many people, media included, don’t seem to be concerned about black on black crime. It’s only an issue when it’s white on black. And that’s the problem. It should always be an issue. All of it. So for some to make an issue of only crime perpetrated by whites, seems in and of itself, to be a racist thing. At least that’s the way I view it. Obviously justMy opinion. It’s all very frustrating.
