really are we just going to let them keep doing this shit? The fucking people on the highway have nothing to do with why they are pissed. Im all for hitting the gas untill they get the fuck out of the way, its a highway, not a place for you to voice your racist views and support your racist organization. And before you go on about how the police need to be held accountable, this has nothing to do with that anymore. The moment they impeded public transportation, the moment they protest in the middle of the fucking highway they become nothing better than those they protest against. Tear gas/pepper spray or water cannon thier ass's out of the fucking highway or let them get run over. Its only gona take once for them to learn thier lesson.

BLM showed what type of people they are when they got #FuckParis trending on Twitter, simply because an ACTUAL tragedy took away the spotlight from their pathetic little protests.

Fuck them.

Isn't it ironic that a group of Black Lives Matter protesters choose to walk down an active highway? Wouldn't that be like 'Black lives matter assuming nobody gets hit by a car driven by someone trying to use the highway for highway related purposes'? Or do they WANT someone to be run down to point at the event and go "LOOK! THEY DON'T CARE! THEY RAN DOWN A PEACEFUL PROTESTER!"

I don't get this anymore.. Black lives do matter so stop putting your activists in dangerous siturations where they could lose their lives =S

[Ryme]

They were arrested for going too far, that should be enough. I thoroughly disagree with what they're doing, but interfering with the right to protest feels worrying.

[Gamdwelf]

How can they say their lives matter when they are standing on a highway?

[Deleted]

What's the actual goal at this point? To piss people off to a point that hardly anyone will support their "cause" anymore?

[Wayne25uk]

Black Lives Matter? Yes ofc lets walk down a highway with speeding cars to make our point. Its not dangerous at all,why? Because we're PROTESTING!

Run them all down stupid fucks.

[TZucchini]

Regardless of whether you think the BLM movement is legitimate, blocking a highway is ridiculously dangerous, for the protesters, and for people attempting to travel during emergency situations.

If they want the right to protest on the highway they are welcome to it. But then they have the right to dodge my car as i dont slow down for them.

Civil rights movements, and social movements in general, are not fucking bake sales.

Give a radical group enough rope and they will hang themselves, more and more people are becoming less sympathetic with these bullies.

Pretty much. They're just attention whoring at this point.

You can have a social movement without being a complete douchefuck and inconveniencing other people.

Why is Paris an "ACTUAL tragedy", but a similar number of unarmed black people being killed by police isn't?

You are bound by law to slow down to a halt. So you should.
That's exactly what they want: to rile you up enough to actually commit a crime.
Mock them, film their stupidity, call the authorities if you want. But you should stop either way.

I hope you're being sarcastic.

You are literally saying the same thing that misogynists, segregationists, racists, and have said about every major social movement in the US in the 20th century.

You're asking this in a Zeta thread -- keep that in mind.

[ramayana1423]

The Black Lives Matter movement is basically just a bunch of racist black people and white serial protesters at this point. It wasn't originally, it had a real purpose and a real gripe. The extreme leftists took it over and starting pulling this shit, causing massive disturbance to completely innocent people, who would possibly support the movement if they were properly informed, but instead they see these assholes act like assholes and as a result all the BLM movement has accomplished is turning more people against them.

Also, blocking a highway needs to be made a felony with a hefty prison sentence associated with it. Make these idiots think twice.

Because "police brutality" is performed by the state and can be, and will be, countered with the tools of a democratic society within the state. Besides, some of those unarmed people are believed to be armed, and are not entirely innocent. At any rate, these killings, when unfair, are the outcome of poor planning.
The Paris massacre tries to demolish those very tools. These victims are unambiguously innocent of the charge. And the killing is not performed out of poor planning, but malign intent.
Different leagues. Trying to draw a parallelism is obscene.

[Mirishka]

Yeah because inconveniencing people is totally the same as cops killing people for having darker skin than they do. Jesus, you're an idiot.
