(CNN)Burnley has strongly condemned a "White Lives Matter Burnley" banner that was flown by a small plane over the Etihad Stadium ahead of their English Premier League match against Manchester City on Monday.

Since the English Premier League's resumption last week, all players of the 20 top-flight clubs have replaced their names with the message "Black Lives Matter" on the back of their jerseys.

If "black lives matters" is approved but "white lives matters" is denounced, then this quote is hypocritical "The club has a proud record of working with all genders, religions and faiths through its award-winning Community scheme, and stands against racism of any kind.

Pretty much proves that Black Racists Matter is planning genocide of white people.

It would be racist to resist, of course.

When we say white lives matter that doesn’t mean we’re against other people were just saying white lives matter too.

Wottsa matter - don’t like your own words back at you?

BLM is racist against white people.

But before they were racist against whites, they were racist against blacks, and still are.

I have seen plenty of whites, especially females and young, wearing BLM shirts or some other display of solidarity. We are losing the youth movement more so than ever in the past. These kids are brainwashed easily by pop culture, public education and social media.

Apparently white lives DON’T matter. Well at least they’ve gone public in stating that.

Perhaps they should have put up a banner demanding protections of the indigenous peoples of England.

Got many transvestites down on the field, do they?

Words have meanings and for insane people a symbol IS the thing it represents. By condemning these words they are declaring that they hate whitey and want to eliminate his life.

Yes, I was going to point out that “two” generally is represented by “each” or “both” but not usually “all.”

But there is great weakness in BLM.

Existential weakness.

What the people are following is not what they think they’re following. This is the existential weakness in BLM, and in communism generally.

I think black people are waking up to the fact that the White Liberals behind the whole BLM movement are playing them.
