That part I'll agree with. A simple Hashtag is not wrong.
But when the person blogging is saying or spreading "What do we want? Dead cops!", or "Pigs in a Blanket, fry em like Bacon"? No. Then you need to treat it as a invitation to commit a crime and punish the inciter as a domestic terrorist accordingly. The latter is unfortunately what a majority of the #BLM group supports, and since they do not repudiate it or strive to reclaim their movement from the extremists, it damages the good parts of the argument and taints what is otherwise a very important dialogue to have.
I mean I am no stranger to Cops being assholes because I'm half black, but I'm not screaming for them to be dead.
But this is not limited to BLM so i don't know why people are especially upset about this. Every organization have nut jobs behind it that do stupid shit, it usually doesn't define that movement and shouldn't do so now either. Remember that MP getting killed in Britain over Brexit. Did people make a big deal out of the Leave camp then? No.
"Some".
Come on, every time you see someone hashtagging #blm and being serious about it, it comes with
1) Bashing police
2) Bashing white people
They don't care about statistical facts, they don't care about the root of the problems, they don't care about having a conversation. It's all about blaming others while making the black population look innocent, making them look like they are 0% responsible for situations they create.
Well the anarchists would be quite happy to see the cops dead. But it would be ironic for them to gather under a banner, so that will never happen. I haven't ever felt the need until now. So many hypocrites, it's 10x worse when BLM does something than any other organization that tends to have violent members.
Truth. But the Exit people condemned the violence against the MP that was killed. It would go far to legitimize the discussion if #BLM people started booing or shutting down people in their collective who chanted for Dead Cops. But they don't because the movement has been created as a sensationalized effort to state that Cops are evil. White Cops are the Devil. Blacks are oppressed and should kill any who try to shackle them. That's Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammed style rhetoric.
What I look to be the next step if we don't shut it down now, is when Black Muslim Extremists, and groups like the Black Panthers link up with other groups such as say.. ISIS to fund and seek to twist the movement further into a full scale revolution styled movement much as the Caliphate that is being crushed in the Middle East.
Hate for Yazidi people is no different than hate for White people. It's hatred, and that's colorblind.
We should condemn it regardless.
You seriously compare rebellion to a protest movement? Wow...
Also, it is pretty ignorant to say that BLM actions led to the murder of cops. Look at the pics from the demonstrations, dude: there are BLM folks taking photos WITH policemen, white and black alike, hugging them, etc. Pretty obvious that BLM as a movement does not support these events, and Trump wouldn't be able to justify taking forceful actions against them on the grounds of them destabilizing the situation in the country.
Then don't shoot at Cops and maybe it won't be considered that. Non-violent Protests =/= Murdering Innocent people.
Difficult to grasp I know!
Oh I'm sure that's probably the case, but better to be wary of all potentialities than be blissfully ignorant, and dead.
Humorous, because I would of said the same of your statements.
It's OK. Neither of us has any control over what happens. Eventually people will simply do what is necessary to resolve the matter, while other people scream outlandish things like Impeachment as they are removed from the equation. Wasn't President Tyler Impeached like 5ish times?
This is merely our generation's version of the Haymarket Riots with different actors, but the core theme. As has been the case the last three times this happened, Liberalism and Progressive thinking is the root that again has sprouted and will be uprooted. In time.
Then people will forget, time will move on and the idea resurrected again. It is as Gundam would say, an endless waltz.

The point is, it is one thing to take action against an obvious destabilizing factor, and another to blame a movement for shootings somewhat related to peaceful demonstrations happening at the same time. If Trump tries to go this route, he will definitely earn impeachment, especially knowing that there are quite a few BLM supporters in the Congress and they won't take Donald's witch hunt well.
nvm..

a black man kicks another black man to the head, while he is on the ground, and kills him
this gets filmed by another black man who is laughing and screams "WOOOOOOOORLDSTAAAAAAAAAAAAR"
now tell me, where black lives matter
Eh. You guys are made for each other. You make each other. Cop(s) kills black, you guys rush to defend the cop(s) when it's obvious they overreacted. They assume all cops are bad. You pander assertions that all blacks are bad. They call you racist. You hypocritically can handle being stereotyped as racist when you're trying to claim they're bad--you call them racist. Probably why we need to be politically correct because even the people against political correctness cannot handle the lack of political correctness. How much you guys lie to yourselves.
