The Black Lives Matter movement is nothing less than a so-called movement stirring stuff up. Sure, the police forces might have a few bad apples, but aren't these people supposed to be all for due process? Someone takes a video or something, but without the full story/context, and immediately, the cops are guilty?
I think not.
One of the problems the black community has today is the much higher rate of crime among blacks compared to other groups, Hispanics included. Lower school graduation rates, low college attendance, and even lower majoring in USEFUL majors among blacks who get to college. Why is the nuclear family such a distant concept for so many young black kids (as in their pappies left before they were born)?
Jim Crow is over, a Democrat invention. Slavery is long over, a Republican achievement. Clearly, this is a problem of behavior.
Sure, there might be some bad apples among the millions of honorable cops; but the message, from people like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and guilty liberal enablers like DiBlasio, feeds this problem. People like them, and other parents of young blacks should be teaching their kids to respect and honour the institution of the police, not to be automatically suspicious of them. Such an attitude from the likes of the race pimps only teaches a disrespect for the law. "F**k tha Police?" Uhhh those police keep blacks safer than they would've been without police.
Are there some whites who don't treat blacks with respect? Absolutely. Of course, walking with pants where they should be, and not wearing a stupid amount of chains might help tho with regard to looking respectable. And stop wearing hoodies even when its not raining; you look like you're trying to conceal yourself, but then wonder why people get suspicious.
One of the tragedies about Bill Cosby getting accused is that he was one of the rare voices of reason among politically prominent blacks regarding young African-American behavior. I'm starting to think the reason the accusations popped up was they BLM thought he might torpedo them, and that whiny feminists would immediately toss Cosby aside because of so-called "rape culture."
This is the 800 gorilla in the room. The silent majority is sick of it all being whitey's fault.
I take issue with the statement that slavery was a Republican achievement. Really?? Other than that, I agree with a lot of what he says.
I obviously meant ABOLISHING SLAVERY was a Republican achievement.
If a majority of them would refrain from premarital sex they could solve a lot of this
When you say “african-American,” do you mean blacks?
WHERE THE F**K TO BEGIN?????
The commons will settle down once they see .gov going to jail, people being held accountable and a equal treatment of the law.
Most of this nonsense is the same bad actors in the street causing problems and again and again they are not put in jail. The cops will never get a fair deal when they have to encounter those types of people. It is very similar to wrestling a pig. The cops will appear 'wrong' in many of those encounters.
Fair observations. Your list of race-baiters should include 0bama, IMHO.
Come on - blacks don't need to go to school.
They're entitled to whatever they want.

White people watch movies and TV shows, etc. pushing it.
White people watch sports pushing it.
White people elect politicians pushing it.
White people send their white kids to schools teaching it.
The response...crickets.
Even here on FR, I've seen posters praising themselves for ignoring the blatant propaganda. Propaganda always has consequences, sometimes extreme. Kistallnacht didn't happen in a vacuum.
The only real issues facing black Americans today is liberalism and their mindless embrace of it. All paid for by the taxpayer funded benefits they receive in trade for being slaves on the liberal plantation to perpetuate the illusion of reaching social justice. It’s one of the most effective long cons ever conceived and executed.

Same thing.
“Racism, we are not cured of, clearly. And it’s not just a matter of it not being polite to say ‘nigger’ in public.

First of all, there is no Black Community. The term Black Community is a political construct intended to homogenize disparate black subcultures that have no commonality other than skin color.
The black plague created from thin air called Black Lives Matter is nothing more than a paid mob of rabble rousers attempting to squeeze every last ounce of juice from the Obama administration.
