I don't recall saying anything about your race, just the posts.
I will ask again..... Are you blaming me specifically for referring to black people as 'BLM' ?
Gee, let me guess, I must mean "white people" when I say you people, right? Wrong, I'm refering to a specific group on ATS that uses this logic.
Wrong guess.
You are obviously lumping me into a group of people and I wanted to be clear on what group that you were referring to, thanks for clearing it up.
And when the BLM organization releases a memo stating it's ok to loot, riot, and kill police officers, it will be fair to say BLM supports that.
I didn't make that statement or anything like it.
YOU, however made the statement that claims that the BLM did forgive Dylann Roof, and your claim is baseless.
I think the problem here is you taking this debate way too personal to be able to grasp the real message within.

OP was your intent to show how people on here are quick to associate everything with black people to BLM?
Because I am black, and I am not a supporter of BLM because they do not want to discuss inner city gun violence in any capacity, which is a larger threat to the lives of black men and women living in those areas as opposed to murderous cops (who also need to be addressed).

But there are plenty of organizations that do discuss inner city gun violence. BLM wasn't founded for that, many other organizations have been though.

But if Black Lives Matter, like the slogan, wouldn't saving the most Black Lives Matter most? Black on Black inner city violence is the number one premature loss of Black Lives. Sure police relations need much work but if you truly want to make the biggest impact, it's staring right in the face every evening newscast in some major cities

Ummm... The one about black men getting shot by police? I've seen no evidence that shows he was anti BLM, like you seemingly claim. Others can chime in if I'm off mark.

There is a difference between some thug who no regard for the law committing murder, and a cop committing murder. There is a difference when nine times out of 10 then innocent who was killed was black. Secondly, as I just told you, it's different.

Just curious.
Do you think that "that side" will say they forgive the shooter of the Dallas cops in the same or similar way "the other side" forgave Dylan Roof (who killed 9 people instead of 5, in a church no less)?
Why or why not?
