Execution-style vengeance killing of nine-year old Chicago resident Tyshawn Lee
The November 2nd execution-style vengeance killing of nine-year old Chicago resident Tyshawn Lee has been completely ignored by the Black Lives Matter movement. Likewise, his tragic death remains unacknowledged by so-called black “leaders†like the rabble-rousing Al Sharpton or fellow Chicagoan Jesse Jackson. Even the former Chicago community-organizer Barack Obama—and his pouty-faced “bring back our girls†wife Michelle—have interestingly chosen silence despite their polarizing, knee-jerk history of inserting themselves into the political discourse.
Unlike, Trayvon Martin who garnered country-wide attention and outrage regarding his unfortunate fate—a life cut short by violence—the similarly sounding named Tyshawn has been relegated to a police blotter and a startling urban crime statistic: 418 murders in the Windy City this year so far.
Apparently, some black lives matter more than others.
It’s because the little boy was shot by another black. And because the little boy was shot to get back at his father, who is a known gang member. It was gang violence. So it doesn’t fit the black lives matter narrative of racist cops or racist white Hispanic neighborhood watch volunteers shooting innocent blacks.
Still, they could at least break all the glass out of all the stores in their neighborhood and steal everything in a display of sympathy and solidarity, couldn’t they?
It seems that BLACK LIVES MATTER only if THE TRIGGER FINGERS WERE WHITE.
The reactions of the BLM group makes it appear that it is OK for Blacks to kill one another. These acts garner NO loud and violent protests.
How is that a weekend of black on black killing barely makes the national “media”, yet a single black person, shot and killed by a “white trigger finger” provokes unrest, rioting, and possibly looting.? Why is it permissible for “some poeple” to shoot, but not others?
Black lives only matter when killed by other races. Black lives don’t matter a wit when killed by other blacks.
There’s no outcry or riot over this because they approve of this kind of black killing, from the children at Mizzou all the way through Jackson, Sharpton and Harris-Perry to obama.
Black lives matter when white cops shoot them for breaking the laws.
