Wrong.
When all that says 'it is good' has been debunked, what says 'I want' remains.

That tweet doesn't prove anything. We know there are good people who show up to these rallies. They support one aspect of the march but they don't understand the overall BLM movement. If you listen to the interviews you hear a good number of the protesters were telling the police to go **** themselves. One of the main organizers basically said this is a wake up call to the cops and blamed them for the shootings. The BLM movement/leadership are largely racists who breed violence and attracts radical groups. It may not be the fault of the protesters who were there per se but the BLM leadership may have some part in this.

More like, any person supporting such a movement is doing far more to divide the country than a person who calls the movement what it is.
Why, if these guys are so bad, are the police coordinating protests with them?

I'm Polish so I am going to complain how Russians and Germans raped my country and oppressed us for 300+ years, put us in camps, executed us, etc etc.

Now where is my free college?
Last year I spent more money on spilled liquor in bars than 99% of miscers make in a year.

Hate going on the internet/social media at times like these. Anytime anything happens, hard lines get drawn in the sand and you're asked to pick a side.

When has name calling and straw-man arguments ever accomplished anything? This is why I stopped coming here, anytime you disagree with someone here, grown ass men start shouting cuck, beta etc. It used to be easy to ignore these kinda things on the internet because you assumed people were just trolling. Today social media sites like ********/Twitter are used to discuss serious issues but people on them continue to act like 5th graders and all it does is create a divide between all of us. There seems to be no middle ground, no matter what the issue is.

We need to have room for differing opinions and be more inclusive instead of hiding between a race/religion/ideology and blame all our problems and every issue on people who are not like us. People seem to be more obsessed with using tragedies to push their agenda and get padded on the back by people like themselves rather than try to understand why it happened and what we can do to stop it from happening again.

The post you quoted, what do you want to prove with it? That all black people or BLM supporters want cops dead? All it is is a handful of carefully selected tweets written by extremists on the other side of the issue than the one you're on. I could easily do something similar by picking posts by miscers calling black people names and making fun of them and use that as proof that all white conservative guys are racist. I wouldn't even have to go outside this thread to do that.

Madmen destroy. Remove race from this, stop attempting to justify what happens. Motivations are important but it's pretty easy to clearly identify this situation as wrong.

Whether or not you want to attribute these peoples actions to certain things is up to you. Men committed evil, there is no revolution here, no great overthrowing of an evil regime. This was murder carried out by evil men.

Sorry boss, but the BLM on a whole is divisive and poisonous. Even the data shows that blacks are not the subject of death by police as much as whites even though the contact with police is much higher. If there's a problem with lethal force and police it isn't a racist thing, it's a process thing.

Organizations like BLM are no better than neo Nazis, KKK or any other racially derived interest group. They are meant to divide and cause strife. Political unrest divvies up power.

I get that the protest was fine and this was not necessarily a collective outcome from everyone there. I know these individual(s) subverted an otherwise peaceful protest (albeit the protesters were saying/doing despicable things before and after the shooting). That doesn't absolve the BLM of responsibility based on their message/purpose. Look at twitter and ******** comments -- there are mouth breathers actually happy this happened. It's sickening. That's what BLM does -- it garners support through divisiveness.

Well THINK of it this way, are you a reflection of your FAT family members?
Does your drug using cousin, or drunk uncle reflect on you in any way?
Or,are they just distant relatives.
Sometimes it is how you think about a topic, and not just type out an emotional response.

They also coordinate protection for rallies of the KKK. Somehow I doubt you'd defend that group, but BLM is essentially the same thing. The main difference is that the majority of BLM supporters are just useful idiots who don't even understand the platform -- at its core it is a racist anarchist movement. Depends on if you want to view the movement by its leaders or its followers. Sure, plenty of the followers are harmless enough, but that doesn't change the reality of the group's intent. It also doesn't change the progression that will follow.

This movement has actually been given legitimacy by the country's leaders as well. The division it has created over the past few years is mind blowing and it will only get worse.

Remember, Assata taught me.

It's easy to see how some of the rhetoric that comes from BLM could contribute to an event like this, but I see no evidence of the shooter being affiliated with them in any way.

The world is safer and better than it has ever been but spend a few hours on social media pages of major news outlets and you would think it's the end of times.

I'm not sure whether people have become more extreme recently or it is just more vocalized and gets blown out of proportion because of social media.

^ Looks like he was definitely taken in by the propaganda.

Makes you wonder why he'd shoot into a crowd of people who share his ideals.

More images of the shooter

He was said to have been enraged by the two police shootings that just happened so there wasn't much planning since the shootings happened the day before.







He was probably worked up all day about the first guy, then when the second ******** video dropped he just snapped and decided to do this as soon as he watched that ******** vid.

He didn't. He shot white cops, just as he claimed he wanted to.

So is this 62 pages of white miscers posting tweets from black people and concluding that all black people think exactly alike?
