It is really sad because ALL LIVES MATTER but all we need to do is ask ourselves who is using the deaths of black people to further their agenda? The Democrats don't care about black on black crime or black on white crime but watch out when a white guy attacks a black guy. When that happens it is a sign of white supremacy, it is RACISM and it is Trumps fault.
BLM is like the Democrats in that they do not care about black on black crime. What have they done to better black communities? Have they built one community center? offered any scholarships? helped with getting black owned business's off the ground? Have they done anything positive with the hundreds of millions of dollars they have raised?
Where is Sharpton and his ilk when 2 black guys kill each other but watch out when a white cop has no choice but to shoot a black suspect then they descend like vultures.
They are all after the money and power that comes from hyping a death and fanning the flames of division.
The main issue that BLM wants addressed is equality. When black on black crime occurs, the criminal usually is arrested and tried for their crimes. With this whole police ordeal, because of the position and powers of policing they feel they are not held to the same standard. There you go.
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.
It does seem to be a cultural thing. Behind the scenes they are dismayed but there is a code of silence whereby they are reluctant to ever say anything negative about or against “their people”.
I once questioned someone about this and why anyone “of color” was viewed as “my people”. I mean, why do you want to identify with criminals as “my people”? White people don’t do that. The are more inclined to view “my people” as anyone of any color who shares their values. Not anyone who shares their skin color.
I think this does POC a disservice. It makes others view them as supporting and defending the criminal element. I don’t think they do, but that’s the perception. Their position as far as Black Lives Matter goes would be more respected and understood if it really did mean “all black lives”. Until they start publically addressing the black on black crime aspects in their communities and culture and hold people accountable they will just come across as angry and disingenuous.
Those blacks lives matter not unless they can figure a way to profit from them or Democrats can gain some advantage from them, then they might pretend to matter.

Exactly! the lives of black people murdered by other black people do not matter to Black Lives Matter because those lives do not have political value. That make Black Lives matter racist.
Why is it black children`s lives don`t seem to matter.....only black criminals.
