Real-estate mogul Donald Trump made it clear in a Tuesday interview that he was no fan of the Black Lives Matter movement.
"I think they're trouble. I think they're looking for trouble," the Republican presidential candidate said during a Fox News interview with Bill O'Reilly.
The Black Lives Matter movement seeks to call attention to what it describes as systemic mistreatment of African-Americans by police officers.
Protests affiliated with Black Lives Matter built momentum after a series of high-profile incidents over the past year in which unarmed African-American men died during their encounters with law enforcement, including in Baltimore and Ferguson, Missouri.
Trump told O'Reilly he saw some interviews featuring Black Lives Matter members and decided they were up to no good.
"I looked at a couple of the people that were interviewed from the group," he said. "I saw them with hate coming down the street last week talking about cops and police, and what should be done to them. And that was not good.

Just amazing that seemingly he’s the only one who can, or will, say this. On Colin Powell: “He’s wrong” on Iran. Where are the other guys on this stuff?
Cop killers.
This is gonna leave a mark on the thin skinned libs and BLM morons. I have to admit...I like Trump more everyday.
“which unarmed African-American men died during their encounters with law enforcement”
Lost me right there Colin. Nothing like spreading propaganda for your masters.
This kind of non-PC honesty makes me more interested in supporting Trump. I am sick of our culture punishing people who are not PC.
“I think they’re trouble. I think they’re looking for trouble,” the Republican presidential candidate said during a Fox News interview with Bill O’Reilly.”
I just high-fived my monitor.
Isn’t “Black Lives Matter” against the PC rules anyway? “African American Lives Matter” would work better in the insane mind of a progressive. Seriously. You’d think that CNN etc would’ve brought this up. I get horrifying looks from people when I say “black guy”. Just sayin.
Trump 2016.
The entire O’reilly interview is up on youtube, and worth watching.
Amen.
Now that Trump has said it the other candidates will be able to say it.
I think that is an apt, factual and fair description. The thug in Ferguson wasn’t armed, but he was trying to arm himself with the officer’s pistol. The guy selling cigarettes in NYC wasn’t armed. The scumbag thug in Florida wasn’t armed. The guy in Baltimore had a small pocketknife.
I’m not saying they all didn’t get exactly what they deserved in the circumstances they themselves created with their low-life thug behavior. But you cannot deny they were unarmed and died during their encounters with law enforcement.
How would you have described it in a succinct sentence?
“Lost me right there Colin. Nothing like spreading propaganda for your masters.”
Uncle Colin.
Everyone should trash blk terrorist group.
Resisting? Assaulting?
Not having a thesaurus handy, that is the first two to descriptors that come to mind.
Yes and taking it a step further, it should just be African lives matter to the pc crowd. It is presumptuous to say African American if it’s not known whether or not they are American citizens. :)
