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.

Where was Any Lives matter in Africa for 2000 years. Slavery, rape and torture were the standard until 100 years ago.

I understand the idea behind it and understand where they are coming from. However I don't really think its that important or that big a deal....Lets be honest most people only have an issue with it because the name of the group is Black Lives Matter......But ask yourselves this has the United States had a history of showing Blacks and other minorities that their lives mattered?

Do an honest assessment on yourself and ask yourself what is your issue with the BLM? If it was the American Lives Matter movement or All Lives Matter movement would you have an issue with it?

So this is the "movement" asking for support and respect?

I think it is racist and divisive. Black Lives DO Matter but so do Blue Lives and White Lives. Why do all of their marches chant "Kill the Pigs, Roast 'Em in a Fire?". Just not right. As a Constitutionalist Conservative I stand firmly behind the First Amendment but they are abusing that right.

If you haven't learned in your time on earth that their are bad apples in ANY organization then you have a long terrible life of hate and confusion ahead of you.

The US military provides tactics and training to numerous eventual violent felons a year, does that make them a terrorist organization? Idiots will be idiots no matter who they choose to follow or support.

BLUF we shouldn't blow them off. They have the right to protest and they're desperate for a fix to this situation. I don't think it's a terrorist organization. And they do have statistics to back up their claim. Better question is: what can we do to lower the police racial profiling and violence statistics against blacks and Latinos? My suggestion: more police training and education as well as live body cams.

Tbh it's not a terroristic organization at all. Black people just want to be treated fairly. Some people get offended by the name and just assume it's a racist extremist organization. Those are the same people who continue ignore our concerns and state "cops kill more whites than blacks". As a black man it's hard to live in America and avoid stereotypes and undue racial profiling. As long as America continues to ignore blacks and other minorities this problem, there will always be issues.

And as long as BLM doesn't address the real killer of black people to be other black people they have no reason to protest the police.

SSG(P) (Join to see) - My point exactly. Ignorant people still deflect the issue at hand. We know we have a major black on black problem. We deal with that on our own. What we cant allow is people who are under oath to protect and serve, to hunt and kill us like wild animals. You are apart of the problem not the solution.

You're pathetic. We understand what our situation is it just doesn't get media coverage. We will protest any and everytime until something changes. But Amerikkka the "brave"will never change. You'll never understand, or maybe ignorance is just bliss I guess. I hate to assume but by your previous statements I'm guessing you're voting for Trump, also a racist. America as a whole has a fear of black men. If not true then why does police gun them down every chance they get. Oh yeah I forgot they're "fearing for their lives" against UNARMED black men. Disgusting. The fact of the matter is police are nothing but racists in a blue uniform with a gun and a badge.
