On CNN, Montel Williams Blasts 'Black Lives Matter' Protesters
NewsBusters ^ | 07/22/2015 | Matthew Balan

On Monday's CNN Tonight, Montel Williams targeted the activists who recently shouted down former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley at the left-wing Netroots Nation conference for his "all lives matter" remark: "I'm sick of the fact that we now have to think that this term only belongs to one community. You know, lives matter in America. Black lives definitely matter. But every life in this country matters – especially the lives of the soldiers who put their life on the line every day to defend this democracy."

Guess who gets voted off of Black Lives Matter Island next? But that won’t be enough. They’ll try to destroy him.

Martin O’Malley is such a weak-kneed, spineless woosie when he apologized to those protestors on stage for saying “All Lives Matter” and not limiting his comments to only “Black Lives Matter”. If he is intimidated by a bunch of protestors telling him what he needs to say, he will never make it to the White House. Weak.

Montel is also working to get Amir Hekmati out of prison. I think every presidential candidate should be asked what they did to free Hekmati.

Who? I will have to look that name up. Who is real Amir Hekmati? It reads like a Turkish name.

While I am glad Montel made that point about these idiots, I’d hardly say he BLASTED the #blacklivesmatter protesters. “I can’t get upset at the fact that he used that phrase that way” is just not the definition of BLASTING anyone.

Would be nice if people could get away from using words like BLAST, DESTROYED, etc, to describe even minor criticisms of people we/they don’t like. Another one is the constant “They are attacking him/her because he/she scares them”. This one is endlessly used to account for criticism of Trump, Carson, Palin, etc. Sorry, but the left or “establishment” doesn’t need to be scared to relentlessly attack conservatives. We laugh at idiotic liberals and skewer them relentlessly all the time, it doesn’t mean we are scared of them either.

Hard to believe we now have to defend the proposition that all lives matter equally.

We are not headed to a good place. Thanks, progressives.

It’s not hard for me to believe. Until Christ the idea that your tribe, people, group, etc. should be supreme over all others was the norm. It still is the norm in cultures who do not follow Christ.

Thank you, Montel. One correction: It looks like we’re not a democracy any more.

Martin O’Malley is not going to win the Presidency, regardless of what he does or says. The only way he gets inside the White House is if he takes a tour like the rest of us.
