What do you think of the black lives matter movement? I think it's ironic that they're chanting that they want dead cops, but somehow they aren't inciting violence and when the shooting starts they all run for cover and expect the cops that they want dead to protect them. BLM is a terrorist organization that incite violence and are a bunch of hypocrites.

I don't know how they can say black lives matter yet there's more homicides and violence among black people. So, your only going to get mad when a white guy kills a black guy but not when a black guy kills another black guy. This whole Black Lives Matter movement is an excuse for rebellious youth to commit crimes among the community. New Black Panther Party are just as bad in fact they are labeled as black supremacists. Black Panther party did use to promote peace and harmony among all races but this new party is so divided that they don't even know what their fighting against anymore. Yes police brutality and racism is very real in America but you know how you fix it is by bringing awareness and you teach the youth to embrace love instead of hate, peace over war and team work over separation. Just my 2 cents.

It's not just black lives matter or white lives matter or blue lives matter it's all lives matter.
There's people of all colors and origins in the police force, military, paramedics, fire fighters. Just because there are a few bad cops or a few bad military members a few bad gangs it doesn't make any race or DOD or police force any worse or any better. A few weeds can ruin the whole garden and people forget that. People make mistakes. People get scared. And no one seems to remember this... It's upsetting when someone is shot on accident and it's upsetting that kids are joining gangs. But these are all terrible things that no one has control of. You can't control someone else's life. People seem to think that killing white cops will change things but it won't. Not all corrupt cops are white just like not all black people are parts of gangs.

I think it can be compared to the ultra right Tea party movement which was supported by enough crazies that it lost all credibility.

Here is my response to the so-called birth of this terrorist organization. By FBI statistics more white people are killed every single year then African-Americans. The only reason the shootings ever get any attention is because the media chooses only to report on stuff that's going to get them headlines i.e White cop or someone who is perceived to be white shoots a black guy. Why does the media never report on all the police killing white people? Because they're looking for headlines in the police killing a white guy does not make headlines.

Thank you, Cody. The TRUTH seems to bring a lot of naysayers out of the woodwork with all their unjustifiable and untruthful diatribes.

I'm not going to "Tea Party" them. There are good people who have valid concerns and feel that this is a way to get their message out. There are violent extremists who want to tear America down and rebuild it in the "kinder and more benevolent" authoritarian regimes where white males are punished for their "white, Christian, male privilege". Unfortunately, the idiots get all the press.

I think that's too inclusive. A few chanting? IDK... most are trying to point out that This country is for all of us and for some reason, they and other groups are being set aside. Justice for All. That's what America stands for... Well darn it!! Pulled me right in. Politics really don't belong here

I am very much against the BLM movement. While I agree that violence needs to be reviewed and guilty parties punished, these punishments need to be done in a court of law. Protesting to bring attention to violence and pushing for changes is good to. Where I have an issue is the very first word "Black". Bringing attention to violence inflicted on one race and blaming another or multiple other races just perpetuates the differences and hatred. There are poor black people, poor Hispanics, poor Whites, etc. We need to look at our neighborhoods and say "What do we need to do as a community to make things better?" Chase out the gangs? Yes, Drug dealers ? Yes. Watch our neighbor's back and report crimes? Yes. What we should never do is say "I'm stuck like this because I'm (insert race) and the (insert race) man has kept me down. Lincoln taught himself to read and eventually became president. Helen Keller was Blind and deaf yet is seen as a hero. Every rags to riches story begins with the person saying no matter how bad society treats me or how bad my origin is I will succeed. M. King was a powerful speaker and civil rights leader. Why? because he was black or because he stood up for what is right? If he had the attitude of "society and the man are keeping me down". There never would have had "The Dream" and there never would have been change. As a society of "American citizens of these United States" we need to help and watch out for each other not blame our neighbor or the guy down the street because his race is different. Judge him by his actions and not his color. Again 'ALL' LIVES MATTER. It's why we get up in the morning, its why we put on the uniform in the first place, and its why even after we take it off we still strive to do everything in our power to help others and make things better for all.
