Pete Buttigieg says he didn't understand context around phrase 'all lives matter' in 2015
CNN ^ | April 4, 2019 | Dan Merica and Annie Grayer

Democratic presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg said Thursday that he was unaware when he said "all lives matter" in 2015 that the phrase was being used to undercut the Black Lives Matter movement.

Buttigieg spoke about his past comment after a speech at the National Action Network, a politically powerful organization founded by Rev. Al Sharpton. The phrase "all lives matter" has been used by critics of the Black Lives Matter movement to push back on the view that closer attention needs to be paid to the deaths of African American men and women at the hand of law enforcement.

If he didn’t understand, he’s too dumb to be in office.

When I firs saw his name I thought it was - ButtKrieg
i.e. War Butt.

Given what I heard about his sexual proclivities - why not?

Second glance at the name said ok I am wrong!

Was he asked which Lives don’t matter?

Seems like a good follow up question to me.

That individual (swatting the “All Lives Matter” sign) demonstrates the difference between black person and nigger. The few times I use that epithet it is based upon a black individual’s ATTITUDE and BEHAVIOR.
