#BlackLivesMatter Activist to CNN: ‘All Lives Matter’ Is a ‘Violent Statement’
Mediaite ^ | 8/18/2015

Posted on 08/18/2015 4:57:08 PM PDT by Altura Ct.

A #BlackLivesMatter activist appearing on CNN told host Wolf Blitzer that saying “all lives matter” is actually a “violent statement.”

Activist Julius Jones was invited on to discuss the protest movement’s contentious meeting with Hillary Clinton. “Black lives are actively under attack, and we are in a terrible war with our own country. African-Americans are Americans and we’re not treated like that, we’re not treated as if black lives matter.”

“And when people say ‘all lives matter,’ it’s a violent statement, because the only time that people say ‘all lives matter’ is in opposition to ‘black lives matter,’ and it’s the most violent statement of love that you can do,” he said. “It’s like, ‘all lives matter!’ Yes, we understand that, it’s true, but in this country for the longest time, the United States acts like black lives don’t matter.”

Watch, via CNN.

“African-Americans are Americans...” So why don’t you just call yourselves AMERICANS?

As long as Black Lives Matter only when killed by a white, not when killed by another black or an abortionist, #BlackLivesMatter remains a mockery of itself.
All Lives Matter is not in opposition to #BLM, it means all other livers also matter and let's not forget that.

Besides the inherently and objectively incoherent nature of the statement, the fact that there was a meeting with Hitlery is just cover for the FACT that her campaign was in direct benefit from the RICO Act violations by the Afroturf.

Isn’t black lives matter a racist statement?
Do only black lives matter? No other live matter?

Why, it was only yesterday that we had this from Calypso Loony:

I'm pretty sure that's the whole idea.

Yes, black lives are under attack...., by other black people.

Far more black lives are taken by other blacks.

Look at the weekend stats any weekend in Chicongo.

I wish someone would just quote in context the black on white and white on black murder rates in the US.

Enough already.

Blacks don’t think other black lives matter as judged by their actions.

“we’re not treated as if black lives matter.”

Well, black mothers murdering a black baby every 3 minutes sure makes it seem that way.
