It's obvious BLM isn't about black lives. Profiting from donations and then buying high end homes, it's all theatrics that white liberal Democrats buy into.
Well...it's a lot like the Tea Party back in the Obama days.
It started off as something that the average person could get behind. Then it became organized and monetized and morphed into something that is apart from its beginnings.
Well, the way Floyd died was terrible. He should have cooperated with the police instructions but he shouldn't have died for not doing so. Maybe police should carry some sort of sedative in the form of an EpiPen they could use to calm resistant prisoners a bit.
And of course, black lives matter, but Black Lives Matter is basically a terrorist organization was conceived and is run by folks who hate this country. As they say, "Delta is ready when you are".
The media's constant demonization of police angers me. What about the other side of the coin? The millions (yes millions) of calls they are asked to respond to every day? When we have an emergency, we call the police first. Police risk their lives every day to protect ours. Would we do the same? Would we become a cop? Few of us would. Let us not forget these heroes because a tiny minority of police abuse their power. Though his death was tragic, I don't agree we should view George Floyd as a martyr and with the BLM movement as a whole. It's an unpopular opinion around here, since I live in the Houston area.
