If lives are supposed to matter

Yo, why are rioters and looters not being held accountable fo their actions but white people are being held responsible fo thangs that happened to other people over 200 years ago?

That shit be fucked up, my nigga.

Here's what I say, I say that black lives do matter, ALL lives also matter..
But if there is a hospital burnin down like a mothafucka, people don't go saying ALL HOSPITALS MATTER. Fo sho, all hospitals do matter but it is only one specific hospital that is burnin right about now, ya feel?

So yeah, all lives do matter but all lives can only matter until black lives matter.

Now, hear a nigga out, I am so over all this shit, fam. This is bullshit propaganda that is takin over now and the criminal elements are busy fucking errthang up.
I say bust caps in their asses. Make examples. Coz, mothafucka, don't be takin advantage of something fo your own gain.

All lives matter and this shitshow gotta stop now. It's gettin old real quick, yo.

Nothing will ever matter. No matter what we do to distract ourselves from the fact that we will all die. We weren't supposed to happen. We came from nothing we will become nothing. We are monkeys fighting over fucking color. The BLM Movement never said other lives dont matter they are just saying Black Lives do Matter. Its like saying something is cool and someone said because you said that was cool you think nothing else is cool. Everyone is just as unimportant as the next person.

Anything wrapped up in politics gets blown out of proportion.

No Lives Matter.

if your movement exists to tear down another movement then maybe that says something about you as a person

The amount of time people spend arguing about the name of the BLM movement means its a bad name for your group. Like defund the police, if you have to explain that your slogan doesnt actually mean what people think it means its a bad slogan.

The whole thing is a distraction. The issue is that the system is broken and corrupt and the fucking useless pigs are too busy beating marginalized groups into submission to actually do anything helpful to anyone. Their function is protecting the wealth and property of the rich from the desperate poor. It's not specifically black people, it's anyone without the money and resources to retaliate.

The system wants to keep policing in place as it is, because community based law enforcement that actually helps say, homeless people, instead of beating them up and arresting them, removes the protective layer between the ruling class and the peasants. So they spin a lot of distracting arguments about what pancake syrup needs to change its name instead of why do we have high school dropouts with guns rampaging around killing innocent people.

Yeah, this shit's out of control. The pendulum's beggining to swing the other way now though. They've been irrational for far too long, and the facts are against them, even concerning the things they directly protest like interracial violence.

I agree with the sentiment that "Black Lives Matter" for obvious reasons but I don't support the movement because it's abundantly clear that it's more about power and chaos. These people think they deserve power over you, they'll assault, destroy, use extortion, and even kill you while feeling justified in doing so.

It's gotten so bad that if there was some sort of "Ordaaa 66" put in place to just mow them all down with live ammo then I honestly don't think I'd care at this point.

What astounds me about this is that there are people out there facilitating the rioters while claiming to be "peaceful protesters"...No, bro, you're forming a group to make it easier for these rioters to do what they do and get away with it, it would be like claiming a Bank Robber getaway driver didn't commit a crime because all they did was drive, which isn't illegal, but greatly benefits the ones robbing the bank.

Animal lives matter more!

"Black Lives Matter" (BLM)is a current issue within the United States at this time.

It actually has nothing to do with the vandalism and destruction that has accompanied it; and the overwhelming vast majority of the "BLM" protest are peaceful and do not interfere with normal movement or commerce. There are always a group of "anarchist, destructors, and criminals" that will use any popular movement or cause as their excuse for violence and destruction. I have watched them since the 1960's "Anti" Viet Nam War Protests.

So why does BLM matter. It matters because within the United States there is overwhelming evidence that largly nationwide and long term that darker colored skinned people mattered less and have been severely discriminated against by authority figures resulting in substantial numbers of deaths and injuries that just don't happen to people of lighter colored skins.

BLM matters as many people now recognicze that our US collective "rasist" ways in regards to these people are no longer acceptable - and that these people need to be treated the same as others in the same situations as others are treated differently. The BLM movement is about trying to end racism.

The number of deaths is so high that the name of the movement automatically includes the name "Lives Matter".

Now, in all honest there are other groups of different ethnic backgrounds who suffer the same treatment; although not as pervasive and across the entire nation as does the darker colored skinned people in the USA. There lives, and the discrimination, matters too.

Of course, you are correct that this really boils down to "All Lives Matter." The thing you apparently do not recognize is that if we in America had been living by "All Lives Matter" there never would have been any of the incidents that led to the BLM movement.

Another fact is that I have looked carefully at the way a number of people who are shouting "All Lives Matter" - and it is quite clear to me that this is the cry of the very people who are discriminating and considering people of other skin color or ethnic background as "less than them."

I personally believe and have acted as if "all lives matter" for many decades. But, I can sure see that the discrimination and mistreatment that has occurred against other people (especially against those of darker skin color than mine).

Thus, I support the BLM movement - as its a needed time for America to really address institutionalized racism that has existed here for all of my life (so far).

If "All Lives Matter" - then what is wrong with saying "Black Lives Matter" - is it not true? What is wrong with saying "Yellow Lives Matter", "Red Lives Matter", "pick your ethnic group) Lives Matter", etc.

Please think about it - do you not see that the people of darker colored skins in America have been discriminated against and have an atrocious death rate (and persecution rate) for things that would never occur to someone who falls into the White Anglo-Saxon category?

Do you not support the ending of that discrimination?

Or do you need to maintain your own social superiority above others - which leads to your treating them as non-equals?

You guys know there is seriously only one person who is running right now that will stick a middle finger to those rioting in the streets.

I'm voting for trump this upcoming election because biden is too much of a weak stick to take a stand against any power. Hell hes not even making the trip to wisconsin to recive the nomination because hes too afraid of a virus. Or his advisors are too afraid of people witnessing his actual mental health decline.
