Black Lives Matter

[Dog]

In Dog's world, holding a rally on Juneteenth in Tulsa was perfectly fine.

Fuck them darkies and their feelings.

Holding a rally anywhere on Juneteenth is not wise. Holding a rally in Tulsa is perfectly fine to anyone who hasn't lost their fucking mind.

Well, it depends on the nature of the rally - went to a Juneteenth in Oberlin, Ohio a few years back. Inspiring. (Two of the men to accompany John Brown on the Harper's Ferry raid were African-Americans from Oberlin.)

Bravo Bravo continues to be bone-headed stupid.

"ever"?!?

Look into prisoner exchanges during the civil war, dumbass.

So it's inappropriate to hold a political event in Tulsa because there was a massacre there 100 years ago. You guys have lost your minds.

I'm with you Dog...I think it a really good idea they are having it....the more the merrier.

Do you have a point?  Or are these just more 'observations'?

The lives lost are predominantly black and that's what this thread's about.

I'm not sure that's exactly what Black Lives Matter is about.

It almost feels like you're trying to co-opt a movement about Systemic and Institutionalized racism and turn it into a discussion on community crime.

I'd wager others would see that as an attempt to dilute the message that Black Lives Matter is trying to spread, in order to minimize the effects of the movement.

But you wouldn't do that.  Right?

BLM is based on a lie, there is no evidence of systemic targeting of blacks by police. The well documented effect of BLM's efforts is destructive and mostly to the black community. It compels police to be reactive (and defunded) and has lead to increased loss of black lives. It's destroys of the economic base of the community.  BLM focuses on the tiny fraction of black lives taken by police because their power comes from perceived victimhood. They ignore the elephant in the room because it doesn't serve their purposes. I'm simply pointing to the elephant. If black lives really mattered to BLM they would give some attention to the 93% of black victims that are killed by other blacks.

Are you sure you aren't actually Mike Pence? Well done on getting all the RW talking points in one paragraph.

Was the Boston Tea Party really just about the tea?

Care to refute any?
