Per source, #Eagles TE Dallas Goedert was with family at a restaurant last night and was sucker punched unprovoked. He was taken to the hospital for evaluation and is fine.

We have gone so far that people now get offended over saying that everyone’s life matters.

Sorry to be a nasty, argumentative type. But I would say THEY have gone so far....

There are two sides in a war and they are the bad guys. You and I are the good guys.

You’re right. And even saying “Black lives matter” is sometimes not good enough. You’ve got to kowtow, and promise money while doing so. And you must also except blame for racist things you never did.

Oh, and one more thing. Pence 2024! He deserves it based on this article alone.

He should take this a step further: "Individual lives matter. Lives do not gain or lose value based on skin color...or membership in a group of any kind."

ALL HUMAN LIVES MATTER!

Every human life from conception to death is sacred in God’s eyes.

If you insist on adding a color in front of the phrase, you are a racist.

Who in the hell created the term political correctness? Why do I or any other human on this planet have feel, think,talk,dress or anything that may offend another human on this planet. I will think what I want, say what I want and dress to please myself. As Billy Joel sang in It’s Still Rock and Roll to me........... Stop this re-education of the masses is wrong wrong wrong.

The proper answer is, “Of course black lives matter. Asian lives matter. Hispanic lives matter. White lives matter. The lives of unborn children matter. All lives matter. I am opposed to tribalism but at the same time we should have our eyes open to obvious racial disparities. One of the most important of those is that 40 percent of black children are murdered. That is appalling and it far exceeds the carnage for any other racial group in this country. If we are serious about black lives matter, let’s stop the holocaust against black babies. We can begin by defunding Planned Parenthood, which is by far the leading killer of black people in the U.S. today. Are YOU, Mr. Reporter, ready to join me right here and now in a pledge to do that? Are YOU willing to say that unborn black lives matter?”

I’ll even say “All Black Lives Matter” and get called a racist, because the BLM folks only care about those blacks that further their cause.

Right. There is a saying. “The first person who brings up race is the racist.”
That saying has great merit.

Why would anybody in the White House or in the administration say “Black Lives Matter” now that they’ve came out and basically admitted that removal of Trump from the White House as their main goal? Clearly they are operatives for the far left wing of the Democratic Party, why would Pence chant their slogan?

Smith College president Kathleen McCartney came within a hair's breadth of losing her job for saying "all lives matter" back in 2015.

The MSM-Democrats will try to make Pence's refusal to kowtow into a massive scandal.

See my post 32.

It’s a simple answer you just say of course every human life matters and has a value.
