I completely support BLM's right to be pissed off. I do not condone any one who would entice violence to make a point though. It has been proven BLM's members/supporters/rioters have overstepped laws during protests. That's where I draw the line. I support ANY group that is proud of who, what, or where they came from....Black to White, Asians to Hispanics, or Irish to Africa, Japan to Mexico....don't cross the line and break the law or you will suffer the consequences.

I believe ALL lives matter, not just black lives. This is what I teach my students about diversity. There is no color in friends. There are injustices committed on all ethnic groups. Martin Luther King, Jr. was all about peaceful resolutions. Problems cannot be solved through violence.

It's funny that you bring up MLK. Who was violently killed by the same people who he was non-violently protesting. It would seem that non-violence didn't help him. Decades later, were still dealing with the same situation. It seems that non-violence is ineffectual.

The irony of saying that problems cannot be solved through violence while belonging to a social media site where every single member belonged to a part of the government that uses violence to solve problems...

I see it the same as I would see a bumper sticker that read "watch out for motorcyclists". Some people just seem to die more than others, and maybe that is something that should be noticed. Its not racist, just like the person with that bumper sticker isnt someone who hates non-bikers

SSG Ryan R - 84% of whites murdered are killed by other whites. Your point is irrelevant. Saying "Black Lives Matter"....is saying "Black Lives Matter too" and "stop killing us". You're basically saying "But...but...but".
