Don't forget he thinks all black people should have stayed in Africa, so unsurprising he cares not a jot about the innocent black Americans being shot by trigger happy cops...
Yes, this is true. Even the most ardent right-winger wouldn't associate themselves with that kind of mindset. It's crazy fringe stuff.
It doesn't matter whether the cop was Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, or look at these. The point is black lives are taken at a much higher rate than white lives by cops. The race of the cop doesn't matter - there's cops of all races that target black males, hell there's BLACK cops that target black males.
Well, I hate to say it, but you also have to look at who commits crime at a disproportional rate: black males within a certain age group. So yeah, black cops are probably wary of other blacks too.
He gets all arms in air when people mention Islamic terrorists, but wants to label this entire organization as a terrorist group. Talk about hypocrisy.
I'll retract the statements. My apologies, but the ideology and many of the members are pretty radical. I was heated and could have watched the words better. I guess I should know about being labeled.
Not true actually statistically more whites than blacks are killed by cops. I agree more black people will be targeted considering the crime rate is generally higher among that population, which leads to sticky and unfortunate situations. We need to address these issues and not just blame it on cops, let's start by addressing things at a social and community level, re train cops, address crime rate, and begin tackling things at there root. Retraining cops won't work alone, start by attacking crime rates in poorer neighborhoods, Foster good relations with cops, and denounce racism from both sides.
I suppose I'm being to harsh, there has been lots of outpouring on Twitter supporting this attack from many black lives matter folks, but then the founder did denounce it. Out of touch with reality????
An outpouring of support? Lol. Okay.

Look what they did in Baltimore, Ferguson, Chicago etc. They burnt down stores and cop cars, looted, 2 cops were killed in NYC in retaliation for Freddie gray, I think you need to look up stuff more and avoid just listening to one sided news.
Omg, they burned a store down and flipped a cop car. Forget the fact that people aren't allowed to grieve before their neighborhoods were occupied by militarized police. Well over 1,000 people were killed by police last year, and if you see nothing wrong with that, something's clearly wrong with you.

I never said that's wrong, clearly something should be done. But seriously? You don't see burning down people's livelihoods, destroying public property and disrupting life I in general as wrong????
I'm talking proportionally to the population, not % wise on it's own. Use some common sense. There's five times the white population the U.S. yet are only killed twice as often. That's 2.5 times less likely than a black victim. Simple math.
